Hi,
Our organization provides SAP GUI SAP GUI 7.3 Patch 9 as a virtual installation on all machines. The GUI is virtually installed using Micrrosoft Virtualization Application client.
When I invoke SAP GUI from Eclipse Luna, I get an error "Failed to create the part's controls". When I further drill down, I find that it's looking for GUI installation at path " C:\Program Files (x86)\SAP\FrontEnd\sapgui\\SapGuiServer".
The issue has already been discussed at ABAP in eclipse GUI integration with Virtual install of GUI. However the solution provided (local installation of SAP GUI) is not feasible in our organization as the system administrators do not agree to a local installation. Also we do not have admin rights on the developer's machines to add Registry entries, etc.
I am sure that having Virtual SAP GUI is a practice in many organizations and lots of people are having the same issue.
Is there any way we can get Eclipse to work with Virtual SAP GUI?
