Java Primer for SAP is designed as an introduction to Enterprise Java for the SAP developer. After providing a general introduction to Java, author Austin Sincock explores how to open the typically closed SAP environment to the world of Java. Sincock explores communicating with a SAP environment through such Enterprise Java technologies as JavaServer Pages (JSP), JDBC, and Enterprise Java Beans (EJB). Where possible, open source technologies are explored for the Java connections pieces-atypical for the SAP environment where everything is proprietary.

About the Author

Austin Sincock is a technical author, SAP/Java integration specialist. He has been a strong proponent for the development and use of Enterprise Java to provide access to SAP R/3 systems for more than five years. This focus has resulted in several technical lectures, numerous tips and articles, and a small club of devoted but slightly deranged fans in the northern-most reaches of Norway. Austin has managed product application suites and technical projects in SAP environments since 1996 and looks forward to a career of global notoriety followed by a gradual but inevitable decline into anonymity.
