Difference between JCA and Jco.
Hi Guys,
I am a little confused between JCA and JCo, I am currently working with SAP Portal 6.0 according to its specifications JCo is a depricated and suggests the usage of JCA. On the other hand when I was reading about connecting to an SAP system using java, it suggests the usage of JCo. My knowledge with regard to JCo is limited, so I was wondering if anyone could throw some light here as to what is the difference in using either of them or rather which is the prefered way about going about it.
Thanks in advance..
Rajitha
I think lancea is definitely on the right track.
Jco is typically described as the way to use SAP from Java code and to use Java code from SAP. It is a specific API for allowing SAP and external Java code to call each other.
JCA (J2EE Connector Architecture) is a general-purpose archiecture and API for allowing external systems and J2EE apps running in an app server to work together. To get a J2EE app working with SAP would require the use of an SAP connector, written to the JCA specs. More than likely, such a connector would itself use Jco. But the J2EE application code would use the connector, not the Jco code directly.
I hope that helps.

Differences between JCA und JCE
Can someone explain me the differences between JCA and JCE ?
I guess there are more features in JCE, but I don't see exactly what.
Thanks, ClaudeJCA gives you MessageDigest, Security, KeyFactory, KeyPair, SecureRandom, and Provider classes. JCE adds Cipher, CipherIn/OutputStream, KeyGenerator, SecretKeyFactory, SealedObject, KeyAgreement and Mac classes.

Difference between model and metadata JCos
Hello,
What is the difference between modeldata and metadata JCos ?
Regards
MrinaliniHi Mrinalini,
The difference between the Model & Meta data is:
Model data is the data coming through the table (which means it describes the actual data present in the table).
Metadata is the structure of the table (which contains structure definitions, type definitions etc.)
Thus, model data destination will fetch actual data while metadata destination will contain descrition of the data.
Hope this helps you
Cheers!!!

RaviShankar BHi Ravi,
Jin has correctly explained.
Only two connectors are provided from SAP
JCO- for connecting java applications
>.Net connectors - for connecting >net applications
And SAP has provided these connectors bcoz these the two most popular technologies or framefork these days which are very common.
But In my previous examples , I try to explain the concepts only by giving .net as example.
Now for making you clear, No SAP connector is available for C++ for accessing RFC but C++ can access web services using XML and SOAP
Again Note these points.
RFC is SAP specific.
Used For----->
SAP applications- SAP applications
SAP Appl - Java Applications(Using JCO)
SAP Applications->Net Applications( using >NEt connectorprovided by SAP)
Web Service is open standard
Any Platform/Any Language to Any Platform/Language( which can understand SOAp and XML).

Difference between Null and null?
What is the difference between null and NULL?
When is each used?
Thanks,veryConfused wrote:
There is a null in java, but no NULL. null means no value. However, when assigning value, the following is different:Although the empty String has no special role. Null means, the referential type is not assigned (doesn't refer) to a specific object. The empty String is just another object though, so seeing it or pointing it out as something special when it actually isn't at all (no more special than new Integer(0) or new Object[0]) just adds to the confusion. -
Difference between GUI_UPLOAD and WS_UPLOAD
Hi,
Please make me clear about the difference between GUI_UPLOAD and WS_UPLOAD. In which cases we need to use these modules...??
Thanks,
SatishI would suggest to always use the GUI_UPLOAD. I say this because this is the function module which is used in the GUI_UPLOAD method of the class CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES. Really, you should probably use the class/method instead of the function module.
data: filename type string.
filename = p_file.
call method cl_gui_frontend_services=>gui_upload
exporting
filename = filename
filetype = 'ASC'
changing
data_tab = iflatf
exceptions
file_open_error = 1
file_read_error = 2
no_batch = 3
gui_refuse_filetransfer = 4
no_authority = 6
unknown_error = 7
bad_data_format = 8
unknown_dp_error = 12
access_denied = 13
others = 17.

Difference between char and varchar, also the difference between varchar2
Hi,
Can anyone explain me the difference between char and varchar, and also the difference between varchar and varchar2...Varchar2 is variable width character data type, so if you define column with width 20 and insert only one character to tis column only, one character will be stored in database. Char is not variable width so when you define column with width 20 and insert one character to this column it will be right padded with 19 spaces to desired length, so you will store 20 characters in the dattabase (follow the example 1). Varchar data type from Oracle 9i is automaticlly promoted to varchar2 (follow example 2)
Example 1:
SQL> create table tchar(text1 char(10), text2 varchar2(10))
2 /
Table created.
SQL> insert into tchar values('krystian','krystian')
2 /
1 row created.
SQL> select text1, length(text1), text2, length(text2)
2 from tchar
3 /
TEXT1 LENGTH(TEXT1) TEXT2 LENGTH(TEXT2)
krystian 10 krystian 8
Example 2:
create table tvarchar(text varchar(10))
SQL> select table_name,column_name,data_type
2 from user_tab_columns
3 where table_name = 'TVARCHAR'
4 /
TABLE_NAME COLUMN_NAME DATA_TYPE
TVARCHAR TEXT VARCHAR2

The difference between SFP+ and X2
Dear Expert,
I need to know what is the difference between SFP+ and X2! and can I use SFP+ card and module instead of X2?
Thanks,
Mohammad SaeedHi,
They are both used for 10Gig interfaces. The difference is the connector type.
SFP+ is LC and X2 is SC.
You can not put an SFP+ into an X2 slot or X2 optic into a SFP+.

Difference between ok_code and sy-ucomm
Hi,
Can any one tell me the difference between ok_code and sy-ucommHi,
Actually OK_CODE and SY-Ucomm are the same. But experts suggest use of OK code for following reason:
In each PAI event that a user triggers by choosing either a pushbutton on the screen or an element in a GUI status, the corresponding function code is placed into the system field SYST-UCOMM or SY-UCOMM and placed in the OK_CODE field (as long as the function code is not empty). Empty function codes are placed in neither the SY-UCOMM field nor the OK_CODE field.
In your ABAP programs, you should work with the OK_CODE field instead of SY-UCOMM. There are two reasons for this: Firstly, the ABAP program has full control over fields declared within it, and secondly, you should never change the value of an ABAP system field. However, you should also always initialize the OK_CODE field in an ABAP program for the following reason:
In the same way that the OK_CODE field in the ABAP program and the system field SY-UCOMM receive the contents of the corresponding screen fields in the PAI event, their contents are also assigned to the OK_CODE screen field and system field SYST-UCOMM in the PBO event. Therefore, you must clear the OK_CODE field in the ABAP program to ensure that the function code of a screen is not already filled in the PBO event with an unwanted value. This is particularly important when the next PAI event can be triggered with an empty function code (for example, using ENTER). Empty function codes do not affect SY-UCOMM or the OK_CODE field, and consequently, the old field contents are transported. -
What is difference between abstraction and encapsulation ?
Hi,
I am trying to figure out the difference between abstraction and encapsulation but confused.
Both are used for data hiding then what is the exact difference ?
Thanks.Tushar-Patel wrote:

When you encapsulate something you get an inside and an outside. The outside is the abstraction. It describes how the encapsulated entity behaves viewed from the outside. This is also called the type. Hidden inside is the implementation. It holds detail information about how the type's behaviour is accomplished.
It's a very simplified picture but I think it's quite accurate and it works for me. -
What is difference between Iterator and Collection Wrapper?
Hi all,
I dont understand the actual difference between Iterator and Collection Wrapper. I observed both are used for the same purpose. Could any one please let me know when to use Collection Wrapper and when to use Iterator??
Thanks,
Chinnu.L_Kiryl is right.
Collections support global iteration (through collection->get_next( )) and local iteration (through iterator->get_next( )).
Each collection has a focus object. Initially, the first object has the focus.
Any global iteration moves the focus, which is published by the event FOCUS_CHANGED of the collection.
If you want to iterate on the collection without moving the focus (and without triggering timeconsuming follow-up processes) you can use local iteration. To do so, request an iterator object from the collection and use this to iterate.
And one more advantage of using iterator: it takes care of deleted entities. If you use global iteration then when you reach deleted entity it will be an exception. But there is no exception with iterator in the same situation. -
What is difference between modify and update i am using
hi
what is difference between mofify and update
my requiremen is to have three condition checkec while mofifying or updating from a internal table
the three fields are
cus no
status
date these all are primary key in the database table
so which sould i use modify or update
there might be entry already existing in database table or new entry to be created if already existin it should check on the primary keys and updatat if not it should add a record
pls suggest whihc to use and how to implement the check on teh threee primary key
like if modify ztable from table it_test
now where condition ? can be used or not with modify? and if yes how
if not should i use update will update create a new entry if no entry is there and please give syntex
regards
AroraHi Nishant Arora,
Modify: It works in performing two actions.
They are: Insert + Update.
For Example If a record that is exited in database, so you are modifying that record, it updates that particular record.
Similarly, If the is not existed in the database, you are modifying it, it inserts a new record.
Update: Update means just it updates the status, I mean it only updates the record. It doesn't inserts any new record if that particular record is not present in the database.
These are the cases you need to write these statements.
Syntaxes: :

What is Difference between SXMB_MONI and SXMB_MONITOR?
what is Difference between SXMB_MONI and SXMB_MONITOR?
Can any explain to this question.please?Hello,
Both are same.
SXMB_MONI is area menu which will contain all multiple transactions pertaining to monitoring.
SXMB_MONI contains some functions viz monitoring for Bridging, Archived Msgs, Job overview, persistence layer analysis.
SXI_monitor directly leads to the message monitoring for the IS, which is part of the SXMB_MONI.
SXI_MONITOR directly executes the monitoring report.
