Update Entity Service using Web Dynpro

Hi,
I am pretty new to Web Dynpro. I have defined an Entity Service which is working. With Web Dynpro I can create new entities using:
ASomething newSomething = SomethingServiceProxy.create();
newSomething.setX(x);
newSomething.getAspect().sendChanges();
Now I would like to update this entity and tried:
... wdContext.currentSomethingElement().modelOject();
mySomething.setX(y);
newSomething.getAspect().sendChanges();
unfortunately this is not working. The database is not updated. How to solve this problem?
Thanks in advance!
Felix

Hi
thanks for the answer, but I think you do not have to call serviceFacade.save() and unfortunately it did not help.
I found a solution, but I think it is more a work around. There should be a better option...
ASomething something = wdContext.currentSomethingElement().modelOject();
ASomething something2 = SomethingServiceProxy.read(something.getGuid());
something2.setX(y);
something2.getAspect().sendChanges();
using this coding the DB is updated.
Why is it not possible to call directly:
somethin.getAspect().sendChanges()
Thanks,
Felix

Generic Object Services using Web Dynpro

I am using Web Dynpro for ABAP and would like to access Generic Object Services (GOS) to view attachments to an SAP Business Object. Using the cl_gos* classes does not work when running WebDynpro as it uses the controls framework.
How can I access the functionality of GOS from a Web Dynpro application?

CAF DB Update for CAF Entity Service from Web Dynpro

Hi all,
I have created an entity service in CAF called Contacts which contains the following attributes.
phoneNo
cellNo
emailID.
Another entity service called "Person" is created. This contains the following attributes.
personId
personName
personAddr
contactsRef. (Cardinality -> 0..n , Relational Type -> Composition)
That means Contacts entity service is used within Person entity service. Now it is working fine within CAF service browser. Now the Web Dynpro DC of CAF application is used within another custom Web Dynpro DC project. I want to store data from Web Dynpro.
Within the context of component controller of Web Dynpro the structure is like
APerson
     |_ personId
     |_ personName
     |_ personAddr
     |_ contactsRef
                |_ phoneNo (Under contactsRef)
                |_ cellNo (Under contactsRef)
                |_ emailID (Under contactsRef)
So I have written the following code within web dynpro custom method.
APerson person = PersonServiceProxy.create();
java.util.List ls = new ArrayList();
for(int i=0; i<4;i++)
AContacts contact = ContactsServiceProxy.create();
contact.setCellNo("9092130156");
contact.setEmailID("[email protected]");
contact.setPhoneNo("432258");
contact.getAspect().sendChanges();
ls.add(contact);
person.setRelatedModelObjects("contactsRef",ls);
person.setPersonID("9999");
person.setPersonName("xyz");
person.setPersonAddr("ABC, KOL");
wdContext.nodeAPerson().bind(person);
person.getAspect().sendChanges();
CAFServiceFactory.getServiceFacade(idendityDefinition.class);
After saving the data from Web Dynpro I am trying to test it from CAF service browser. But I am getting only the parent row. I mean only the value of personId, personName and personAddr fields which I have stored from Web Dynpro. But no value is coming within the table for Contacts entity service for composition relation.
Could anybody help me how can I solve my problem?
Thanks & Regards

Hi Chandan,
Can you do person.getRelatedModelObjects() and get the contact object, to check whether it is null, also check in the CAF DB whether the data you entered is present.
I am not sure the code is actually adding the contact model object to person.
Go thru this SDN Blog on usage of the CMI API's, there is a link for CMI documentation in it which might help you get the right code for adding the contact object.

Entity Services and Web Dynpro

Hi,
I want to implement a Web Dynpro with relation to a database (Entity Service and Application Services modeled with NWDS).
I used the following tutorial
, but when I want to add a "Used model", the selection list is empty and so its not possible to do that.
Why is it empty, I implemented exactly after the tutorial?
<a href="https://www.sdn.sap.comhttp://www.sdn.sap.comhttp://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/8b7059da-0c01-0010-e09c-9ecabaf58864">Example Tutorial (Page 16)</a>
I really need help for that, because I want to implement a Info Callable Object, which shows Entries from the tables. The table should be filled within the actions, and so I need a relation to entity level.
Thanks in advance
Steve

Hi Steve,
In order to search the SDN forums effectively I suggest to:
- Select 'Forums' (top menu bar)
- Select topic of interest (in this case 'SAP NetWeaver > Developing Composites with CAF')
- Enter your search keywords not in the upper left but in the upper middle search box 'Forum Search'
This way the search is more likely to meet your expectations.

Consume Web Service in Web Dynpro

Hi Experts,
I´m currently trying to learn web dynpro development.
Scenario: I have one component which embed two views. One view is for enter customer number and in the other view I will see the name of the customer. The name of this customer is provided in a sap erp2005. I have develop a function modul and wich gave me the appropriate data(customer name). Then I create a web service base on this function module.
When I test this web serviec in WSNavigator, I get the customer name, so the web service is working well.
My Problem is: I can´t invoke this Web Service in Web Dynpro. My steps to invoke web service were: create a model with the web service wsdl and then I add this model in the component (in "Used Models").
I have create a application and assign it to the component. When I "Deploy new archive and Run" the application I be come the error: "Configuration not found for application: demo.sap.com/test_wd3,serviceRefId:7fecf23b-0895-48f3-9902-0e7015a705c3. Please check the configuration details from the NWA. You may have not assigned the Service Group to a Provider System, or the generation of the configuration has failed."
What do I have to consider or to set up?
It is right to assign the input field to the context parameter?
PS: I have followed the steps in this tutorial, but I don´t use XI or PI

Hi,
I have the following message error:
Exception on execution of web service with WSDL URL

When i debugged it, I found the following error:
Cannot find the required parameter [unTipoProducto] in request message content.
What is wrong?, I pasted the code of my method, that call to web service in the component controller.
public void Alta_Entrega( )
    //@@begin Alta_Entrega()
     String tipoProducto = wdContext.currentAlta_EntregaElement().getUnTipoProducto();
     Request_Alta_Entrega entregaMO = wdContext.currentRequest_Alta_EntregaElement().modelObject();
     if (!wdContext.currentAlta_EntregaElement().getUnTipoProducto().equalsIgnoreCase("")){

          if (logger.beDebug()) {

               entregaMO.setInvokerProperty(Stub.PASSWORD_PROPERTY,"xxx");
               entregaMO.execute();

          logger.debugT(entregaMO.wdGetResponseLog()); //response log (HTTP header + SOAP response)
          logger.debugT(entregaMO.associatedModelClassInfo().getModelInfo().toString()); //model metadata in XML format
          logger.debugT(entregaMO.toString()); //model object tree in XML format (= model context node content)
I hope you can understand me, because my english is very bad!!.
Thank you.

Can I use Web Dynpro to provide Web Services

I know I can use Adative web services model to consume existing web services. But I have not seen any example to use Web Dynpro as the web service provider. Can this be done? If yes, how?
Thanks.

Hi,
WebDynPro Java/ABAP are primarily User Interface technologies. Webservices are faceless (without UI ) components that provide certain functionality. Using UI technologies like WebDynPro Java/ABAP etc, we can build a face( UI ) to the webservices.
DnyPro itself means a screen & WebDynPro is for building web based applciations.
Hope this resolves your question.
Well, if you still want to use it as provider & if you have an existing web-service, the way to do it is, Right click on your WebDynPro ABAP component & select CREATE->Service Call. Build a Custom Controller or use the Component Controller to get the service using service type = Webservice proxy for your webservice. You can use this Component as a Used component in any other webdynpro components & use this to access webservices.
Thanks,
Phani

Scheduling Time Based Jobs using Web Dynpros.

Hello Again,
I would like to know if it is possible to perform time based jobs using Web Dynpros, I have a situation where a Web Dynpro application updates a Database and then later during the day say at around 9:00 PM, I would like the Web Dynpro application to transfer all the updated Data to another Database, I know we can run a batch job but can we run create a Web Dynpro application to programatically fire a batch job at the required time.
I am welcome to any suggestions.
Best Wishes,
John.

Hi John,
WD is not good option for this. I would suggest you to "extract" logic to separate layer and use Timeout service (http://help.sap.com/saphelp_webas630/helpdata/en/6b/2550d23ef1994580114d6064bc44a1/frameset.htm) - call logic from service.

Hi,
first check, if the resource exists, then decide to create or update content:
    IResource resource = (ResourceFactory.getInstance().getResource(rid, ctx));
    ICollection aCollection=(ICollection)resource;
    // get new resource RID
    RID newResRid = RID.getRID(repository+RID.PATH_SEPARATOR+resourceName);
    // try to find the resource
    IResource newResource = (ResourceFactory.getInstance().getResource(newResRid, ctx));
    if(newResource!=null) {
      // does exist - update content
      newResource.updateContent(content);
    else {
      // does not exist - create
      newResource = aCollection.createResource(resourceName, null, content);
Hope that helps,

Consuming External Web Services in Web Dynpro Java

Hi All,
I an trying to consume external web service in Web dynpro java using Adaptive Web Service Model.
But getting below mentioned error while executing the web service
Exception on execution of web service with WSDL URL 'D:\Web Service Project\CurrencyConvertor.asmx.xml' with operation 'ConversionRate' in interface 'CurrencyConvertorSoap'
Steps i followed are as below:
1. Created Adaptive Web Service Model for this i select WSDL source as "Local File System or URL"
In next step i select No logical destination radio button and click on next
In next step, browse the WSDL file and successfully import the WSDL file.
2. After successfully importing the WSDL file i wrote below code in Init method:
WebModel modelweb = new WebModel();
Request_ConversionRate reqConversion = new Request_ConversionRate(modelweb);
ConversionRate conversion= new ConversionRate(modelweb);
reqConversion.setConversionRate(conversion);
wdContext.nodeRequest_ConversionRate().bind(reqConversion);
3.After that execute the model - code is given below :
    IWDMessageManager manager = wdComponentAPI.getMessageManager();
    try
      wdContext.currentRequest_ConversionRateElement().modelObject().execute();
      wdContext.nodeResponse().invalidate();
      wdContext.nodeConversionRateResponse().invalidate();
    catch(Exception e)
      manager.reportException(e.getMessage(), false);
Please let me know how to resolve this.

Hi,
You need to use destinations for metadata and modeldata.
Configure those destination in Visula admin.
you can refer to following link.

What is best practice for calling XI Services with Web Dynpro-Java?

We are trying to expose XI services to Web Dynpro via "Web Services". Our XI developers have successfully generated the WSDL file(s) for their XI services and handed off to the Web Dynpro developers.
The Java developers put the WSDL file to their local PC's and import as "Adaptive Web Services" data models. When the application is constructed and deployed to our development box, the application abends because the J2EE server on that box cannot locate the WSDL file at runtime (it was on the developers box at, say, "C:\temp\" and that directory does not exist on the dev server).
Since XI does not have a way of directly associating the generated WSDL file to the XI service, where is the best place to put the WSDL so it is readable at design time and at run time? Also, how do we reconcile that we'll have 3 WSDL files for each service (one for Dev, one for QA and one for Prod) and how is the model in Web Dynpro configured so it gets the right ome?
Does anyone have any good guide on how to do this? Have found plenty of "how to consume a Web Service in Web Dynpro" docs on SDN, but these XI services are not really traditional Web Services so the instructions break down when it comes time to deploy.

HI Bob,
As sometimes when you create a model using a local wsdl file then instead of refering to URL mentioned in wsdl file it refers to say, "C:\temp" folder from where you picked up that file. you can check target address of logical port. Due to this when you deploy application on server it try to search it in "c:\temp" path instead of it path specified at soap:address location in wsdl file.
Best way is re-import your Adaptive Web Services model using the URL specified in wsdl file as soap:address location.
like http://<IP>:<PORT>/XISOAPAdapter/MessageServlet?channel<xirequest>
or you can ask you XI developer to give url for webservice and username password of server

Getting and Printing A PDF Document From R/3 Using Web Dynpro

I would like specific information on getting and printing a document residing R/3 using web dynpro. My environment is Netweaver 04s SR2, an it will not include ITS or the ABAP stack. It connects to remote R/3. I will not be using Adobe Interactive Forms.       I only need get/render/print the doc. My question is in 3 parts.
1) Getting the PDF from R/3
     a) In terms of the RFC ABAP module, how should it return the pdf (a table?)
     b) How should the document be stored within the Component Controller context
         for display.
2) Converting the R/3 returned binary into a form that is renderable within
    Web Dynpro. (Does the Form UI Element Require it to be converting and if so
                          what is the best way to do this)
3) Printing the PDF from the corresponding iView in the portal. (If I am using the
    form ui element to display it, how can printing be initiated in the portal)
Thanks

Hi,
In webdynpro there s a fecility to convert the general data to PDF by uisng th InterativeForm UI Element.
This for u need to do the following things.
1. Need to configure the ADS(Adobe document services) in your VA(Visual Admin).
2. Once ADS is configured we can utilize the UI element Interactiveform It has contain the Adobedesigner by using this we can design the PDF and binding with the model nodes.
3. Develop the Function module in the r/3 side and import into WD side and those are created as Model nodes and we canutilize in the 2 step.
4.When u run the application u can display the pdf with how u design ur PDF form.
This is generally doing the PDF by using PDF.
Or do u think any other way post ur issues.
Thanks,
Lohi.
