Calling RPG program from SAP running on windows platform.

Hi
We want to call a RPG program used for sending and receiving data to SAP System. Our sap system running on windows platform and RPG program run iseries V5R3
How can we do this?
We red the redbook http://www.redbooks.ibm.com/redbooks/pdfs/sg244672.pdf. We thought it only mention about sap and externel system is as/400 and it is not related with our issue but we are not sure.
We are waiting for an urgent suggestion.
Best Regards...

Hi, We also need to call RPG from ABAP via RFC. We have installed the RFC SDK on A/S400 and tried call ABAP RFC from RPG, but still don't know how to make RPG program callable from ABAP
Any advice!
Many thanks

Calling RPG program from Java

Hi All,
I'm somwhat new to Java (coming from an AS400 background) and I'm stuck with what I think is a fairly simple problem. But I've been looking at this for so long, I'm probably missing something really simple and I hope someone can help me with this.
I've created a bean that needs to call an RPG program on the AS400. I've looked at code throughout this site to compare and it looks the same. My problem is I'm getting an error when I try to run it.
"com.ibm.db2.jdbc.app.DB2SQLException2: [IBM][JDBC Driver][14012] The index for the parameter is not valid."
Here's my code:
CallableStatement stpCall ;
String sql = "CALL LIB.CHECKLOGIN ( ?, ?, ? )" ;
try {
Connection connection = null;
connection = ivDataSource.getConnection();
stpCall = connection.prepareCall( sql ) ;
stpCall.setString( 1, ivUserID ) ;
stpCall.setString( 2, ivPassword ) ;
stpCall.registerOutParameter( 3, Types.INTEGER ) ;
stpCall.execute() ;
} catch (Exception e) {
System.out.println(e);
I've tried it a couple different ways and still get the same error. So if anybody can let me know what I'm missing or what I'm doing wrong I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks.

Thanks jedilowe.

I'm looking through the stderr log now. Most of if looks like a foreign language, but do you have an idea of what to look for? Anything specific? Here's a few lines from the log:

Calling Non SAP programe from SAP program

Hi Experts...
Can we cal Non SAP programs Like Windows EXE programs from ABAP programs ?
If yes Then How .....
Regards ...
..Ashish

Hi Ashish ,
Ya we can call a non SAP program from SAP program.
For example we can call a EXE program from the SAP program using the RFC connection created in SM59.
In Sm 59 you can create a TCP/IP connection and give the path of the executable there.

Error while calling java program from ABAP

Hi Experts,
We are trying for RFC inbound scenario.
We followed the below blog
/people/gregor.wolf3/blog/2004/08/26/setup-and-test-sap-java-connector-outbound-connection
We are working with SAP JCO 3.0.2
We are getting the error : 'STFC_CONNECTION' could not be found in the server repository.
After I run the Java server program if I execute the RFC destination directly from SM 59 it is showing successful messages.
If I stop the java program then this RFC is failing. Based on this we concluded that RFC to Java connection is working fine.
But as mentioned in blog if we call the RFC Destination from ABAP program it is giving the below error,
'STFC_CONNECTION' could not be found in the server repository.
If we test the RFC destination using RFC_TRUSTED_CHECK standard FM we are getting the below error.
'RFCPING' could not be found in the server repository.
We create the RFC destination of Type : TCP/IP as exactly mention in the blog.
Please help us in resolving this issue.
Thanks
Prince

Using the RFC connection,we can establish a link between Java and SAP.
Afterwards,hope we can call Java program from ABAP.

This depends on the version of your Netweaver Java AS. If you are running 7.0, you will have to use the Jco framework. The Jco framework is deprecated since 7.1 though. If you want to build a RFC server in 7.1 or higher, it is adviced that you set it up through JRA.
Implement an RFC server in 7.0:

Calling another program from the current program

Hi all,
In our requirement we are calling another program from our current program .
In the current program( from which we are calling ) we are giving file name in the selection screen
and when we run the current program we are successfully going to other program but our main requirement is to higlight the file name which we had given earlier .
Note : The called program doesnt have any selection screen.

HI
use EXPORT and IMPORT key words for passing data from one program to another program.
as the called program is available in the same session you can use above key words which means you are accessing ABAP MEMORY.
You can also use SET and GET key words which means SAP memory
take F1 help there are examples tooo and detailes explanation abou the same

How to call a subroutine from sap script

hi friends,
Can anybody tell me How to call a subroutine from sap script .
thanks n regards .
Mahesh

hi..
Calling ABAP Subroutines: PERFORM
You can use the PERFORM command to call an ABAP subroutine (form) from any program, subject to the normal ABAP runtime authorization checking. You can use such calls to subroutines for carrying out calculations, for obtaining data from the database that is needed at display or print time, for formatting data, and so on.
PERFORM commands, like all control commands, are executed when a document is formatted for display or printing. Communication between a subroutine that you call and the document is by way of symbols whose values are set in the subroutine.
The system does not execute the PERFORM command within SAPscript replace modules, such as TEXT_SYMBOL_REPLACE or TEXT_INCLUDE_REPLACE. The replace modules can only replace symbol values or resolve include texts, but not interpret SAPscript control commands.
Syntax in a form window:
/: PERFORM <form> IN PROGRAM <prog>
/: USING &INVAR1&
/: USING &INVAR2&
/: CHANGING &OUTVAR1&
/: CHANGING &OUTVAR2&
/: ENDPERFORM
INVAR1 and INVAR2 are variable symbols and may be of any of the four SAPscript symbol types.
OUTVAR1 and OUTVAR2 are local text symbols and must therefore be character strings.
The ABAP subroutine called via the command line stated above must be defined in the ABAP report prog as follows:
FORM <form> TABLES IN_TAB STRUCTURE ITCSY
OUT_TAB STRUCTURE ITCSY.
ENDFORM.
The values of the SAPscript symbols passed with /: USING... are now stored in the internal table IN_TAB . Note that the system passes the values as character string to the subroutine, since the field Feld VALUE in structure ITCSY has the domain TDSYMVALUE (CHAR 80). See the example below on how to access the variables.
The internal table OUT_TAB contains names and values of the CHANGING parameters in the PERFORM statement. These parameters are local text symbols, that is, character fields. See the example below on how to return the variables within the subroutine.
From within a SAPscript form, a subroutine GET_BARCODE in the ABAP program QCJPERFO is called. Then the simple barcode contained there (First page, Next page, Last page) is printed as local variable symbol.
Definition in the SAPscript form:
/: PERFORM GET_BARCODE IN PROGRAM QCJPERFO
/: USING &PAGE&
/: USING &NEXTPAGE&
/: CHANGING &BARCODE&
/: ENDPERFORM
/ &BARCODE&
Coding of the calling ABAP program:
REPORT QCJPERFO.
FORM GET_BARCODE TABLES IN_PAR STUCTURE ITCSY
OUT_PAR STRUCTURE ITCSY.
DATA: PAGNUM LIKE SY-TABIX, "page number
NEXTPAGE LIKE SY-TABIX. "number of next page
READ TABLE IN_PAR WITH KEY PAGE.
CHECK SY-SUBRC = 0.
PAGNUM = IN_PAR-VALUE.
READ TABLE IN_PAR WITH KEY NEXTPAGE.
CHECK SY-SUBRC = 0.
NEXTPAGE = IN_PAR-VALUE.
READ TABLE OUT_PAR WITH KEY BARCODE.
CHECK SY-SUBRC = 0.
IF PAGNUM = 1.
OUT_PAR-VALUE = |. "First page
ELSE.
OUT_PAR-VALUE = ||. "Next page
ENDIF.
IF NEXTPAGE = 0.
OUT_PAR-VALUE+2 = L. "Flag: last page
ENDIF.
MODIFY OUT_PAR INDEX SY-TABIX.
ENDFORM.

How to call a program from FM which acts as popup?

Hi,
I need to call a program from FM and once the program is called it needs to be opened as a popup. Maybe we need to assign size when we call from FM or do we need to give size in the program it self?
I know i can either use the Submit command or Call Transaction command. But that it self will open a full screen which i dont want. It needs to be of a smaller size.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks

Hi,
Try this,
REPORT ZEX_POPUPSCREEN .

JCO.Server Error while trying to execute a RFC program from SAP

Hi,
We are connecting to an external registered server program from SAP via Web Methods.
The external server program is registered with the SAP Gateway. We have created a TCP/IP RFC destination and are able to connect to the destination successfully via SM59.
An RFC function is created in SAP and is called using the syntax CALL FUNCTION "/NGN/BAPI_STRE_SEARCH_PROCESS" DESTINATION 'PRDB2B'. We have also handled the COMM_FALIURE and SYSTEM_FALIURE exceptions in the function call.
We are monitoring the gateway via SMGW and see a connection log to the RFC destination as below
Number - 10
LUname - dev01
TPName - sapgw00
User - KRAORANE
Status - CONNECTED
Symbolic - PRDB2B
Conversation - 86520353
Prot - REG
SAP return code - 0
CPIC rtn code - 0
The external program returns results as expected.
However sometimes the RFC fails and returns the message JCO.Server could not create server function /NGN/BAPI_STRE_SEARCH_PROCESS.
We are not able to figure what exactly is causing this error. Any help will be highly appreciated.

How do i stop programs from automatically running when i start up my macbook?

how do i stop programs from automatically running when i start up my macbook?
programs such as.. email and Skype.
When i go to system preferences, then users & groups, then to my name, log in items ....this box is clear, i have unchecked everything, yet things still start up......

sometimes these applications will have a setting in the preferences to not open on login of computer. If you see none of that, you can go into:
system preferences> Users & Groups > Select your user>Login Items.
unlock the settings by hitting the lock icon on the bottom left of the window then youll be able to uncheck these things from opening when you log in.
Hope this is helpful or answers the question.
