Prerequisites to create SAP applications

  • Artikkeli

This section provides information about tasks that you must perform before developing BizTalk applications using the SAP adapter. The section also lists some BizTalk Server tools that are used to develop BizTalk applications.

Create a strong-name key file

You must create a strong-name key file to build projects in Microsoft Visual Studio. A strong name consists of the project's identity—its simple text name, version number, and culture information (if provided)—plus a public key and a digital signature. The strong-name key file contains the public key and the private key.

Important

Creating a strong-name key file is a one-time task. You can use the same key for all the BizTalk applications you develop.

  1. Open the developer command prompt for Visual Studio.

  2. At the command prompt navigate to the location where you want to create the key file. For example, type cd C:\Sample,and then press ENTER.

  3. At the command prompt, type sn -k <key file name\>.snk, and then press ENTER.

    Note

    You should receive a message at the command prompt stating that the key pair was written to the strong-name key file.

  4. At the command prompt, type exit, and then press ENTER.
