Dependencies
The connector makes use of SAP Java Connector (JCo) v3.1.8 released by SAP. According to the license of SAP JCo it is not allowed to bundle it with other software. Therefore, JCo needs to be obtained separately from the SAP Marketplace, see SAP JCo.

The package for the RFC source connector contains an expressive configuration documentation in file configuration.html. A minimal configuration example is also included as ohja-rfc-source-connector.properties file. The connector makes heavy use of validators and recommenders and has been tested with the Confluent Control Center UI.
Command line tool
