Abstract: Techniques for mapping of messages includes receiving, from a first web service, a message comprising one or more operations in a first format; identifying a mapping interface that is based on the first web service, the mapping interface comprising one or more mappings for each of the operations of the message; identifying a second web service that is associated with the identified mapping interface; mapping the message to the second web service such that the one or more operations are in a second format associated with the second web service; and assigning a logical port connection to the second web service.

Abstract: Techniques for providing an error log include establishing, by a hub computing system, a connection with a back-end computing system, the back-end computing system executing a first computer-implemented programming language; receiving, at the hub computing system, a request for an error log from an Open Data Protocol (OData) application that resides on a mobile communications device, the mobile communications device executing a second computer-implemented programming language different than the first computer-implemented programming language, and the error log including error log entries associated with a runtime processing of a data model; registering, on the hub computing system, the error log as an OData service configured to be provided over an OData channel between the hub computing system and the mobile communications device; and providing, by the hub computing system, the error log to the OData application as the OData service over the OData channel.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for facilitating communication between enterprise software applications. Some enterprise software systems communicate using a message protocol designed for use with an exchange system. Those systems require the exchange system to communicate using that message protocol. To communicate with systems using that message protocol, a local system can build a message formatted in accordance with the message protocol, even without an exchange system. The local system stores configuration data and uses the configuration data to build the message.

Abstract: This application relates to a computer-implemented method for testing an HTTP-communicating service. The method includes installing a service in a first system. The first system makes the service available to a second system for access using an HTTP request. The method includes installing a test program in the first system. The method also includes testing the installed service using the test program. The HTTP request is generated by the test program and received by the installed service. The method also includes presenting a result of the testing.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for using point-to-point communication in a communication framework to unify programming models. In a general aspect, a method for unifying programing models in connectivity framework can include receiving a message in a first protocol at a first computing system in the distributed computing environment. The message is associated with a connection request received from a second computing system in the distributed computing environment. In a communication framework of the first computing system, the first protocol is transformed into a second protocol of the message using a point-to-point communication of the communication framework. The message can then be output in the second protocol.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus, including computer program products, for allowing an end user at an end user system to remotely debug a back-end application program executing on a back-end system. To access the services of the back-end application program, the end user system interacts with a front-end application program executing on a front-end system, the front-end application program acting as a proxy to the back-end application program. The front-end application program receives a request for a debugger tool from the end user system and provides to the back-end system an identification of the end user system. Based on the identification, the back-end system sends a request to start a debugger tool to the end user system, and in response, the end user system establishes a communication channel with the front-end system to use the debugger tool to receive debugging information.

Abstract: Methods and systems for a remote user interface and remote debugging in a computer system comprising an application server and at least two client systems are provided. A first client operated by a user wishing to debug a remote application running between a second client and the application server registers at the application server. The application server invokes a user interface at the first client from the application system, based on information provided at registration. Using the present invention, in an SAP environment, developers can use the user interface for interactive actions and also debug running of an application, whether on an SAP or non-SAP system, from a remote location.

Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for facilitating remote debugging from a local computer with a graphical user interface for debugging application in a computer system comprising an application system and one or more clients. The server receives a request from the local computer to monitor an application invoked by a client and running on the application system. Breakpoint information may be set via a breakpoint user interface initiated at the local computer by the server. Breakpoint information will be sent to one or more computer of the server system. The graphical user interface is provided to the local computer via a debugger interface initiated at the local computer by the server.

Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for making application trace data for a local system available to others within an enterprise services network. A user at system remote to the server can specify trace data collection preferences and trace data is collected based on the user preferences. The trace data is stored in a database at the server in a standard format for web browsers and accessible to users of both SAP and non-SAP systems.
