ABAP WebDynpro - How to get a reference to a component?

Hey,
I want to have a reference within my normal component to a different component - Is this possible?
Thanks in advance,
Patric

I want to create a popup which contains a view of a different component.
Currently i'm just able to create a popup which contains a view from vom own component as you can see below:
data comp type ref to if_wd_component.
com = wd_comp_controller->wd_get_api( ).
*TRY.
CALL METHOD cl_wd_popup_factory=>popup
EXPORTING
    component           = comp
*    used_component_name =
    view_name           = 'VTEST'
*    create_only         = ABAP_FALSE
*    modal               = ABAP_TRUE
*    window_title        =
    close_button        = abap_true
*    button_kind         =
*    message_type        = IF_WD_WINDOW=>CO_MSG_TYPE_NONE
*    close_in_any_case   = ABAP_TRUE
* IMPORTING
*    popup_window        =
*    component_usage     =
But i want to use a view from a different component than my normal one, and because of that i need a reference to the different component.
regards

How to get the reference of the component JSF by the faces context

I have :
<h:commandLink id="toto" action="#{controller.test}" >
I want to get the reference of this commandLink component in function test of "controller ", for instance , to get the "id" attribute of it, so how to do it? by facescontext??????
Thanks a lot.

hi again:
to precise my question, i know that attribute "actionListener " of the component can let the controller.test know the reference of the component ,but if i want to know when the getters are called for example <h:outputText value="#{controller.myValue}"> it calles the controller.getMyValue() , so in the getMyValue, how to know which component calls him?
Thanks a lot...

How to get File Reference of a properties file from EJB

Hi,
I am using Sun App server 7 with Oracle 9i. I am keeping all my SQL statements in a properties file from which I am loading it while making a database operation from Stateless beans. My problem is I am not able to get the reference of the properties file. Here is the code through which I am getting the SQL statements loaded to a cache.
String sqlFileName = "SQL.properties";
sqlCache.load(new FileInputStream(sqlFileName));
From the cache I am sending the SQL statement depending on the key value. But the problem is I have to keep the SQL.properties file on the App Server config directory of the instance where the server.xml file resides. Otherwise it is not able to find the properties file. But I don't want to put the properties file on the config directory of the server instance. Please help how to get the properties file from the packakge. My file is residing inside a package com.company.sql . Botht the properties file and the class accessing the file are residing in the same package. Please help how to get the reference of the file with out putting the file in the config directory.
Thanks
Amit Patnaik

Just wanted to warn you of the hazards if you read a file from EJB
So please make sure that these hazards will not affect your application. However the solution suggested to use getResourceStream() concurs with ejbSpec
This snippet is from suns blueprint on ejb
Why can't EJBs read and write files and directories in the filesystem? And why can't they access file descriptors?
Enterprise beans aren't allowed to access files primarily because files are not transactional resources. Allowing EJBs to access files or directories in the filesystem, or to use file descriptors, would compromise component distributability, and would be a security hazard.
Another reason is deployability. The EJB container can choose to place an enterprise bean in any JVM, on any machine in a cluster. Yet the contents of a filesystem are not part of a deployment, and are therefore outside of the EJB container's control. File systems, directories, files, and especially file descriptors tend to be machine-local resources. If an enterprise bean running in a JVM on a particular machine is using or holding an open file descriptor to a file in the filesystem, that enterprise bean cannot easily be moved from one JVM or machine to another, without losing its reference to the file.
Furthermore, giving EJBs access to the filesystem is a security hazard, since the enterprise bean could potentially read and broadcast the contents of sensitive files, or even upload and overwrite the JVM runtime binary for malicious purposes.
Files are not an appropriate mechanism for storing business data for use by components, because they tend to be unstructured, are not under the control of the server environment, and typically don't provide distributed transactional access or fine-grained locking. Business data is better managed using a persistence interface such as JDBC, whose implementations usually provide these benefits. Read-only data can, however, be stored in files in a deployment JAR, and accessed with the getResource() or getResourceAsStream() methods of java.lang.Class.
Hope this info helps!

How to get a reference to a Project Library?

Hello DSC 8 users,
In my project I have couple project libraries ( *.lvlib) defined, containing only shared variables. I want to logg those variables to Citadel, but I need to programmatically set datalogging properties for each library, like Database Computer, Database Name and path etc.
My problem is that I can not get the reference to a particular library, because ther is no VI inside. Is there any way to get the reference to a library based on Shared Variable name that is inside the Library?
I tried different approaches, the closest that I came is to store a VI inside the Library, get the reference to this VI and from tis reference I can get to Library property that I need.
But in case there is no VI inside, I can't do it. I'm sure there is a solution to this. Can somebody please help?
Thank you,
ROMP

Hi,
i might be overlooking something here, but i can only seem to open a vi refenece and not a "library" reference. when i use the "open VI reference.vi" from the programming->application controll menu it throws an error at me.
currently i have worked round this by using a member of the lib to then get its "library" property and do what i want from there. However this isnt the best way for me as i want to be able to start with just a .lvlib file path and then document information about this library.
Any help on how to open a ref to a .lvlib dirrectly would be fantastic.

How to get a reference to the owner of a class instance?

Within a method of a class, how can I get a reference to the
object containing the class instance?
To be clear: I have class B that contains a method, say
"myfunc()". Class A (say, the application itself or a custom
component) instantiates a new instance of Class B : myclassB=new
ClassB()
Now, from within myfunc() can I get a reference to Class A?
The simplest way here is to pass a "this" reference when
calling myfunc(), i.e. "myclassB.myfunc(this)" but I would prefer
not to have to remember to always use 'this'.

Are these objects within each other. Does classA own classB?
If that is the case, then Greg is correct and it should be
available in parentDocument.
In projects in the past we have created a central
refObjectLocator object that is available to all objects.
Mostly we use events to communicate between objects. Dispatch
an event and let whoever listen for it.
Here is a copy of our reflocator if you are interested.
package com.goconfigure.model {
import mx.collections.ArrayCollection;
import com.adobe.cairngorm.model.ModelLocator;
import com.goconfigure.util.HashMap;
[Bindable]
public class RefObjectLocator implements ModelLocator {
// this instance stores a static reference to itself
private static var refObject : RefObjectLocator;
public var refObjectHM : HashMap = new HashMap();
// singleton: constructor only allows one model locator
public function AppLocator() : void {
if ( RefObjectLocator.refObject != null )
throw new Error( "Only one RefObjectLocator instance should
be instantiated" );
// singleton: always returns the one existing static
instance to itself
public static function getInstance() : RefObjectLocator {
if ( refObject == null )
refObject = new RefObjectLocator();
return refObject;
public function addRefObject( pRefObject : Object, pName :
String ) : void {
refObjectHM.put(pName,pRefObject);
public function getRefObject( pName : String ) : Object {
return refObjectHM.getValue(pName);
public function removeRefObject( pName : String ) : void {
refObjectHM.remove(pName);
public function clearRefObject() : void {
refObjectHM.clear();

How to get a reference for custom controller

Hi All,
I am working with the custom controller but i dont know how to call the functionality of custom controller into a view controller.For accessing component controller functionality we have a attribute wd_comp_controller in view controller.Like this how to get a refernce for the custom controller.
Thanks in Advance.

hi,
Lets say view1 has the event ONACTIONNAVIGATE and you want to call a method 'start_navigation' in the custom controller named 'navigation'.
Use the following code.
METHOD onactionnavigate .
DATA lo_navigation_controller TYPE REF TO ig_navigation.
lo_navigation_controller = wd_this->get_navigation_ctr( ).
CASE navigation_type.
WHEN 'BACKWARD'.
lo_navigation_controller->start_navigation( if_fitv_fpm_api=>gc_navigate_backward ).
WHEN 'FORWARD'.
lo_navigation_controller->start_navigation( if_fitv_fpm_api=>gc_navigate_forward ).
ENDCASE.
ENDMETHOD.

Any Pointers on how to get object list values and component values in iw32

Hi,
I have a requirement where whenever a user enters a creates(iw31) or changes(iw32) an order then we have to validate the materials entered by the user before saving the order.We have en interface structure for the transaction 'CAUFVD'.Which gives us the values of functional location and equipment entered under the Reference object.But we need to validate all the object list functional locations and also Order components enetered by the user.Can any one tell me how to get the values of all these fields entered by the user?
And also I need to query Equipment Bill of Material.What does this equipment BOM refers to .Is it the equipments under Object list or something else.
Please Help.
Thanks

Hi Anu
There is a user exit that gets trigerred when you try to save a work order . The exit is 'EXIT_SAPLCOIH_009' . This exit has the structure CAUFVD_IMP which will give you all the order header values entered by the user.
User exit 'EXIT_SAPLCOBT_001' will give all the values entered by the user including order components. Also check the package CO amd see if there is any other function group suiting your requirement.
hope this helps you.
cheers

How to get the parent of a component in fx?

Here is an example:
Index.fx:
Stage {
    title: "Online book library";
    width: 1024
    height: 768
    scene:Scene {
    fill: Color.WHITE
    content: [
       banner ,
       login = Login{translateX:715 translateY:135}
};Login.fx:
var logOn : Button = Button {
        translateX:25 translateY: 170
        text: "Log On"
        font: Font {size:11 name: "Verdana Bold"}
        action: function() {
            showHello();
function showHello(){
   // add a label in index.fx whose text is "welcome!";
    }I want to show something on the index.fx but I don't know how to get the parent from the child component?
In Flex, we use parent or parentApplication, Is there a similar function in JavaFX?

Reusing the same Tile example, I had no problems, I suppose I was doing wrong the first time:
def IMAGES_WIDTH = 100;
def IMAGES_HEIGHT = 100;
var COLUMN_NB = 3;
var ROW_NB = 3;
var scene: Scene;
var previews: Container;
Stage
title: "Test of Tile layout"
scene: scene = Scene
    width: 500
    height: 500
    fill: Color.LAVENDER
    content:
      previews = Tile
        hgap: 10
        vgap: 10
        layoutX: bind (scene.width - previews.width) / 2
        layoutY: bind (scene.height - previews.height) / 2
        columns: COLUMN_NB
        content: for (i in [ 1 .. COLUMN_NB * ROW_NB ])
          ImageView
            id: "IV{i}"
            image: Image
              url: "{__DIR__}clock.gif"
              width: IMAGES_WIDTH
              preserveRatio: true
            onMousePressed: Hide
function Hide(evt: MouseEvent): Void
println("{evt.node} ({evt.node.id}) - {evt.node.parent}");
var nm: Node = evt.node.parent.lookup("IV5"); // Middle node
nm.visible = false;
var ntl: Node = evt.node.parent.lookup("IV1"); //Top left node
(ntl as ImageView).viewport = Rectangle2D { height: IMAGES_WIDTH/2, width: IMAGES_WIDTH/2 };
(evt.node.parent as Tile).hgap = 20; // Strange effect, but works
}

How to get Cost element for a component in co03 cost analysis report

Hi,
I'm using table COSP to find the quantity for a production order component. However, I need to identify the cost element first to get the unique data. In CO03 cost analysis report, there is cost element for the component. Does anyone know how to get it ?
Thanks.

CSKA stores the basic info about the cost element
There is no data in CSKB.
I'm trying to use different tables to get the cost element.
AUFK, AFKO, AFPO, RESB, ...but no luck...

How to get the caret position of component embedded in JTextPane?

Hi great java developers ;-)
I want to get the caret position of component which is embedded in StyledDocument / JTextPane.
How has it to be done?
Thank you very much!!!

The Document doesn't know which textPane it belongs to. (It could even be shared by mulitple textPanes).
You get the caret position of a any text component by using:
textComponent.getCaretPosition();

How to get committed date for each component after availability check

Hi,
When I use CO02 to check material availability, I can see committed date in missing part list and missing part overview for each component in production order. I save it and use CO03 to read missing part list again. The committed date is blank?! How to get the committed date for each missing part in production order?
Another question, committed date can be displayed in CO24(missing parts info system)? Thanks in advance!!

Rita,
Please check that the PP avail. check has replensh lead time turned on. If RLT is turned off & there is no sufficient stock of material, then system can only committ date of 12/31/9999.
Once you turn on RLT, it will give you some date based on your configured avail check ( that looks at stock or purchase order or production order). That way if there is no sufficient stock of material to satisfy your order system will committ the worst case date which is the RLT.
On CO24 unfortunately there is no field for Committ date. Hence is it not possible to view commit date. You can only view Committ quantity.
i am sure this will help you. Else please come back.
thanks,
Ram
