Hi,
We're trying to create an extremely simple RFC server application using the netweaver RFC connector, based on Ulrich Schmidt's clear instructions here.
However we're having some fairly basic issues with these, plus the demo code provided with the NWRFC zip file, stfcDeepTableServer.c.
According to OSS note 1056696, the functions in sapuc.h are no longer available since VS2008 as many of the Unicode functions have been replaced in the standard library wchar.h, and that "the datatype SAP_UC is functionally equivalent to wchar_t*".
Unfortunately several of the standard rfc methods such as RfcGetString and RfcGetTable use SAP_UC in their method parameters.
How can we use the netweaver RFC library if these methods depend on a deprecated code? We can't even compile the demo program as-is. Is there a newer SDK available? Presumably we're not the only ones facing this issue, especially given that Visual Studio 2005 is no longer legally available.
Thanks for your help!
