Pro:
By pre-compiling your JSPs you don't need a java compiler on the server - just a jre.
The result? No java compiler on the server means a potential security hole patched - people can't just write and deploy jsp's willy nilly on the server.
You KNOW that all your JSPs compile before you visit them - because you have compiled them all :-). It won't fail because of a stupid spelling miskate that prevents compilation. That doesn't mean they will run without error of course...
Con:
Compiling the JSPs ties them to a particular server - unless you take the runtime along with them.

Advantage and disadvantages of XI

Dear All,
I was asked to list down the Advantages and Disadvantages of XI over other middleware tools in an interview
Please advice.
Regards,
Ashish

Hi Ashish,
Advantages of XI:
XI is a middleware like many others. It is well suited for connecting SAP systems with each other and with non-SAP.If your focus is not on SAP systems, other solutions might be a better choice today. SAP XI provides an integrated workflow engine that allows to define adapters to non-XML-protocols and mappings to convert data content from source to target.
Any fully mature middleware should provide these three layers.
1. An independent Message Queue
2. A data consolidator and mapping engine
3. Workflow processor.
XI is lacking full-fledged Message Queue compared to other established Middleware products.
Currently, SAP XI does not have the features like IBM Websphere, Seeburger or TIBCO.
SAP's next XI release might provide this missing piece and many more features which is due 2007 i guess.
Here are the advantages of SAP XI from my point of view.There are lots of advantages but to list a few :
Easy Integration with SAP products & components (RFC, IDOC, Proxy).
Data security as expected from any SAP product.
Standards based - XML, XSD, Xpath etc
Ability to communicate with other messaging systems/products.
Business Process Management
Synchronous & Asynchronous communication possible.
Complex processes for communication possible instead of only sending and receiving (business process management) (connect e.g. asynchronous and synchronous steps, define complex communication scenarios)
Mapping etc possible to accomplish in Java. Platform independent Java components.
Java & .Net support.
Big range of adapters for different technologies / tools (SOAP, Mail, JDBC, CDIX...)available in standard or offered by other companies (EDI e.g. by Seeburger).
Process functionalities inside XI to modify content in the communication channel on own defined rules fpr business purposes.
Central monitoring for data communication for all your communication between different systems.
And the marketing issue: SAP and its partners provide high volume of development capabilities to make XI always up-to-date for new requirements

Troubleshooting and Introduction for Exchange 2007/2010 AutoDiscover - Details about "Test E-mail AutoConfiguration"

AutoDiscover is a new feature in Exchange 2007, to provide access to Microsoft Exchange features (OAB, Availability service, UM) for Outlook 2007
clients or later.
We can determine whether problems related to AutoDiscover via OWA.
For example:
OOF is not working in Outlook Client but it is working in OWA.
When we realized this issue is not related to Outlook Client side and network side after performing some troubleshooting steps, it should be something
abnormal on AutoDiscover.
There is a common tool to check AutoDiscover in Outlook, Test E-mail AutoConfiguration.
Today, we will introduce AutoDisocver and “Test E-mail AutoConfiguration” in details. Hope it is helpful for AutoDiscover troubleshooting and self-learning.
1. Differences between “Test E-mail AutoConfiguration” and other tools
The “Test-OutlookWebServices” cmdlet allows us to test the functionality of the following services:
Autodisocver
Exchange Web Services
Availability Service
Offline Address Book
When we run “Test-OutlookWebServices”, it returns all the web services’ states.
However, some information are useless for some scenarios.
For example:
We just want our Exchange 2010 Server working internally. So it is unnecessary to enable Outlook Anywhere.
However, when we run “Test-OutlookWebServices”, it returns Outlook Anywhere errors because the Outlook Anywhere does not need to been enabled.
In contrast, using “Test E-mail Autodiscover” is more intuitive.
If there is any problems, it will return error code from the test result, like 0x8004010F etc. We can do some research from TechNet articles or MS
KBs.
Although it is difficult to say where the specific problem is just via the error codes, we can combine with IIS logs to perform troubleshooting and
find the root of problem.
2. How to use “Test E-mail AutoConfiguration” Tool
a. Open Outlook, we can find there is an Outlook Icon at the right bottom of System tray. Holding down “Ctrl” button and right click the Outlook Icon, we will see “Test E-mail
AutoConfiguration” option. Please see Figure 01.
Figure 01
b. Click “Test E-mail AutoCofiguration” and input user name, uncheck the “Use Guessmart” and “Secure Guessmart Authentication” checkboxes, then click “Test”. Please see
Figure 02.
Figure 02
c. “Test E-mail AutoConfiguration” result panel and log panel. Please see Figure 03 and Figure 04.
Figure 03
Figure 04
3. How to understand “Test E-mail AutoConfiguration” result
According to the Figure 03, we found there are many URLs in the “Test E-mail AutoConfiguration” result panel. Let us understand the details of these
URLs.
If we these URLs are not the correct ones, we can re-setting or re-creating them via commands.
- Internal OWA URL:
https://vamwan310.vamwan.com/owa/
OWA internal access.
- External OWA URL:
https://mail.vamwan.com/owa/
OWA external access.
- Availability service URL:
https://vamwan310.vamwan.com/EWS/Exchange.asmx
Free/Busy, OOF and meeting suggestions.
- OOF URL:
https://vamwan310.vamwan.com/EWS/Exchange.asmx
Out of Office access.
- OAB URL:
https://vamwan310.vamwan.com/OAB/023ef307-b18a-4911-a52c-de26700f6173/
OAB access.
- Exchange Control Panel URL:
https://vamwan310.vamwan.com/ecp/
ECP access.
4. AutoDiscover Tips
- AutoDiscover Service itself is a web application running on the AutoDiscover virtual directory (not a server service) designed to provide connection information to various
clients.
- The AutoDiscover service is automatically installed and configured when CAS role is added to any Exchange Server.
- AutoDisocver virtual directory is created in IIS within the Default Web Site.
- A Sercive-Connection-Point (SCP) object is created in AD.
- The SCP contains a URL to the AutoDiscover service. This is for intranet clients so they do not have to use DNS to locate the AutoDiscover service.
- In AD this object is located at the following location:
DC=<domain>, CN=Configuration, CN=Services, CN=Microsoft Exchange, CN=First Organization, CN=Administrative Groups, CN=Exchange Administrative
Group, CN=Servers, CN=<CAS Name>, CN=Protocols, CN=AutoDiscover, CN=<CAS Name>
- Setup creates the AutoDiscover URL based on the following structure:
<CASNetbiosName>.domain.com/AutoDiscover/AutoDiscover.xml
If a PKI certificate is not already present, a self-signed certificate is installed on the Default Web Site.
To help allow this certificate pass the Issues to test it is set up with a Subject Alternative Name containing urls.
If a PKI certificate is present, that certificate is utilized and configured for use in IIS.
The Outlook Provider is used to configure separate settings for the Exchange PRC protocol (internal to network), Outlook Anywhere (Exchange HTTP protocol), and WEB:
EXCH, EXPR, WEB
The
EXCH and EXPR setting are vital for the proper configuration of Outlook.
5. AutoDiscover Workflow
General Process flow:
There are various components surrounding the AutoDiscover Service and all are necessary to complete a request. Including IIS, AutoDiscover service
itself, the provider, and AD.
a.
Client constructs service URL and submits Autodiscover Request. First attempt to locate the SCP object in AD. So, DNS is not needed.
b.
IIS Authenticates User.
c.
Is the Autodiscover service in the appropriate forest?
+ If YES.
    1)
Parse/Validate Request
    2)
Is there a provider that can service the Request?
++ If YES
      a)
Config provider processes request and returns config settings.
      b)
Return config setting to client
++ If NO
Inform client we cannot process request
+ If NO.
Redirect client to Autodiscover service in the appropriate forest.
Methods to find Autodiscover services: SCP and DNS
Domain-joined
a. Find SCP first.
The SCP contains the URL to the AutoDiscover service.
URL: https://CAS01.contoso.com(CAS’ FQDN)/AutoDiscover/AutoDiscover.xml
If more than one SCP object is found in AD (it means there are multiple CAS servers in the Exchange organization), Outlook client will choose one of the SCP entries that
are in the same site to obtain the AutoDisocover URL.
b. If we cannot find SCP object, then Outlook client will use DNS to locate AutoDiscover.
Outlook parses out the domain (SMTP suffix) via your EmaiAddress, then attempts to connect to the predetermined order of URLs via the suffix.
For example: If my email address is
[email protected]
Outlook tries POST commands to the following order of URLs:
https://contoso.com/autodiscover/autodiscover.xml
https://autodiscover.contoso.com/autodiscover/autodiscover.xml
NOTE: The URLs above is by design, hardcode
and cannot be changed.
c.
If those fail, Outlook tries a simple redirect to another URLs in IIS:
http://contoso.com/autodiscover/autodiscover.xml
http://autodiscover.contoso.com/autodiscover/autodiscover.xml
If none of these URLs work then DNS is most likely not set up correctly.
We can test that by pinging one of the above URLs.
If that is successful, we must ensure the URLs contoso.com or autodiscover.contoso.com are actually pointing to the CAS server.
If the ping fails then there is a chance that DNS is not set up correctly so be sure to check that the URLs are even registered.
NOTE: If contoso.com is a non-CAS server,
we should add a Host record with just AutoDiscover. And point that entry to your CAS server that is running AutoDiscover.
d.
If still failed, we can use DNS SRV lookup for _autodiscover._tcp.contoso.com, then “CAS01.contoso.com” returned. Outlook will ask permission from the user to continue
with AutoDiscover to post to https://CAS01.contoso.com/autodiscover/autodiscover.xml
Non-Domain-joined
It first tries to locate the Autodiscover service by looking up the SCP object in AD. However the client is unable to contact AD, it tries to locate
the Autodiscover service by using DNS.
Then, same as step b, c, d in
Domain-joined scenario.
6. How to change the AutoDiscover
service location order forcibly?
By default, Outlook client locates AutoDiscover service in that order above.
We can also change the order forcibly.
a.
If we want to locate AutoDiscover service via one of the autodiscover URLs, please running following command in EMS:
Set-ClientAccessServer -identity <servername> -AutodiscoverServiceInternalUri https://autodiscover.contoso.com/autodiscover/autodiscover.xml(URL
that you want)
b. If we want to locate AutoDiscover service via
SRV record, please follows this KB to set up SRV:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/940881
7. How to check AutoDiscover Healthy
a. We should make sure the AutoDiscover
is healthy before using AutoDiscover to perform troubleshooting.
b.
We can browse following URL in IE explorer:
https://autodiscover.vamwan.com/autodiscover/autodiscover.xml
If it returns “code 600”, that means AutoDiscover is healthy.
Screenshot as below:
c. AutoDiscover itself returns errors to the requesting client if the incoming request does not contain the appropriate information to complete a
request.
The following table explains the possible errors that could be returned.
Error Value
Description
600
Mailbox not found and a referral could not be generated.
601
Address supplied is not a mailbox. The provided email address is not something a client can connect to. It could
be a group or public folder.
602
Active Directory error.
603
Others.
The 600 “Invalid Request” error is returned because a user name was not passed to the service. That is OK for this test because this does confirm
the service is running and accepting requests.
d.
If AutoDiscover service is not working well, I suggest re-building the AutoDiscover Virtual Directory for testing.
Steps as below:
1) Running following command in EMS to remove the AutoDiscover VD (we cannot delete it via EMC):
Remove-AutodiscoverVirtualDirectory -Identity "CAS01\autodiscover(autodiscover.contoso.com)"
Please refer:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb124113(v=exchg.141).aspx
2)
Running following command in EMS to verify whether we have removed the AutoDisocver VD successfully:
Get-AutodiscoverVirtualDirectory | FL
Please refer:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa996819(v=exchg.141).aspx
3)
Running following command in EMS to re-creating a new AutoDiscover VD:
New-AutodiscoverVirtualDirectory -Websitename <websitename> -BasicAuthentication:$true -WindowsAuthentication:$true
Please refer:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa996418(v=exchg.141).aspx
8. Common issues
a. Outlook Disconnection
Issue and Troubleshooting
Issue:
Sometimes the Outlook clients cannot connect to the Exchange server after migrating to a new Exchange server or changing to new CAS. The Outlook clients
always connect to the old CAS server.
Troubleshooting:
To solve this issue, we should change the SCP via following command:
Set-ClientAccessServer -Identity
<var>CAS_Server_Name</var> -AutodiscoverServiceInternalUri
https://mail.contoso.com(newCAS’FQDN)/autodiscover/autodiscover.xml
b. Autodiscover
Certificate issue
Tips on Certificate:
Exchange requires a certificate to run an SSL protocol such as HTTPS. We can use the certificate that supports subject alternate names (SAN) in Exchange.
This is to allow the certificate to support resources that have different names, such as Outlook Anywhere and the Autodisocver Web application.
Issue and Troubleshooting
Issue:
We receiver the Certificate Principal Mismatch error when we use a SAN certificate.
Troubleshooting:
1) Please determine the FQDN that the client
uses to access the resource. Steps as below:
OutlookàToolsàAccount
SettingsàE-mailàclick
the Exchange accountàChangeàMore
SettingsàConnectionàExchange
Proxy Settingsànote the FQND that list in the
Only connect to proxy servers that have this principal name in their certificate box.
2)
Please using EMS to determine the value for the CerPrincipalName attribute: Get-OutlookProvider
This command returns the result for the EXPR name.
3)
Please re-setting the CertPrincipalName attribute to match the FQDN via following command:
Set-OutlookProvider EXPR –CertPrincipalName: “msstd:<FQDN the certificate is issued to>”

What is the significance of the Assembly Deployment Target and Feature Scope?

Hello,
We have created a project as Farm Solution (not sandbox).
Under project properties we can see an option for Assembly Deployment Target : GAC or WebApplication.
I know that GAC will deploy the dll to windows\assemblies and WebApplication will deploy to website/bin folder.
Now, we add a feature to the project; in here we can see a dropdown for scope with options as: Farm; Web; Site; WebApplication. I know that depending upon what option is chosen; the feature can then be activated by going to the respective manage features
option via SharePoint front end UI.
Can you tell me what is the significance of the Assembly Deployment Target and Feature Scope?

>>Can you tell me what is the significance of the Assembly Deployment Target and Feature Scope?
Feature scope can be decided based on the type of artifacts you will be building
Check the below link for what type of artifacts can be build at different levels of scopes
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms454835(v=office.14).aspx
wrt to Assembly Deployment Target depends on what type of components you are deploying through your solution which will be specified in manifest.xml. There are advantages
if you deploy the components to web application rather GAC like all Apppools will not get recycled, avoiding IIS reset etc. But if you have 3rd party dlls and feature receivers which need to deployed along with the solution then its advisable to deploy to
GAC

Advantages and Disadvantages of Dual booting Windows on PXI Device

Hello,
In solving my previous problem of running a DLL in RTOS I've stumbled upon another solution. But i wanted to know the pros and cons of this before i make the leap.
I want to install windows on the PXI device so that the NHR DLL files are run inherently on the windows kernel and i have access over my DAQ devices without placing them in the remote target.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of installing a windows only on the DAQ device and running all my operation from it. Do i loose my real time features? I dont know, I'm really new to LabView and may sound really dumb. Please excuse my lack of knowledge.
With Regards,
Khalid.

Hello Bob,
Thank you for your insightful answer. I also thought this might happen, loosing all the RT features.
I have another question for you. If i use a RT variant of windows like "Windows Embedded 8", will this make any difference? Can i regain my RT features by it or i have to go with the LabView RTOS.
I'm pushing towards a windows system because i have to run this DLL file from NHR which is not supported by the LabView RTOS.
Moreover, I could just install just windows onto the PXI controller. I'm not being able to make it dual boot. Can you guide me towards proper guideline to do so? I looked at the knowledge base file about dual booting, but the instructions dont exactly match with my available options in BIOS setup.
Any suggestions from anyone is much appreciated.
With Regards,
Khalid.

Should clients migrate right away to SOA Suite 12c?, what are the advantages and disadvantages?

12c looks like a fine version, it seems to have a lot of advantages and new features. Is it recommendable for clients using 11g to make an effort and immediately adopt the new version of the suite?

Advantages and disadvantages of SOAP adapter

Hi all,
Currently we need to provide a solution connecting to the .NET environment from SAP system, one of the option is proxy <-> PI <-> soap (web service), can anybody tell me the advantages and disadvantages of web service communication via PI? Because we may also be able to connect directly via the .NET connector.
It will be very appreciated if you could provide some proposals, thanks.
Bean

Hi bean qian ,
These are the advantages of SOAP:
SOAP(Web Services) IS A Technical Adapter.
Openness and Interoperability are features of SAP XI.
1)Openness
Use open, XML-based standards
Leverage Industry Standards in B2B scenarios
2)Interoperability
Connect to applications using specialized adapters
Connect to existing integration solutions using JMS (e.g. MQSeries) or SOAP
Web Service: SOAP on the Ropes
u2022 The Good
u2022 By default the SAP builds the XML per the selected protocol
u2022 All container elements with values are added to XML document
u2022 SOAP protocol is a synchronous process, therefore SAP waits on a
response
u2022 SAP automatically matches data elements in the returned XML document to
container elements and transfers the data (in theory)
u2022 The Bad
u2022 Current problems with return binding for SOAP processes require special
handling
u2022 The Web step allows manipulation of the outgoing and incoming XML
document via rules
u2022 the following may ease some learning pains
These r disadvantages of SOAP :
The SAP XI SOAP Adapter supports Exactly-Once end-to-end processing using unique message IDs.
This is an excellent blog which neatly explains u in detail of SOAP with WEB:

What are the advantage and disadvantages of upgrad...

please do tell me the advantage and disadvantages of updating the software of my 5530. Thank you

This is written generally as the specifics of the new 5530 update are unknown, although it is believed to be just a minor bug fix update.
Advantages:
Bug fixes
Speed increases
Stability increases
The possibility of new features.
Disadvantages:
New bugs may be introduced.
Something may go wrong during the update that could leave the phone unusable.
Disappearing languages if the phone has previously been modified by the retailer (for example they imported the phone from another country and modified it to include other languages).
If you are happy with your phone then it's probably best not to update it if you are worried about potential problems.

Advantage and Disadvantags of ActionScript 3

Hi professionals of ActionScript 3!
I just started flash animation and learning ActionScript. But
I found one thing that there existing ActionScript 1, 2, 3 versions
and ActionScript 2 components is using only ActionScript 2 code.
Please tell me advantages and disadvantages of both ActionScript.
Please advise which is powerful and has more info and sources. What
kind of links between then existing.
Thanks in advance!
Said Babanli

Said,
> Please tell me advantages and disadvantages of both
> [versions of] ActionScript. Please advise which is
> powerful and has more info and sources.
ActionScript 1.0 and 2.0 both run on the same virtual
machine (AVM1)
inside Flash Player. As of Flash Player 9, the player runtime
features two
virtual machines (AVM1 and AVM2), the second of which runs
ActionScript 3.0.
Right off the bat, this tells you that Flash Player 9 or
higher is required
if you want to program with ActionScript 3.0. In one sense,
that's a
potential "disadvantage" of AS3: if your users have Flash
Player 8 or lower
installed, you simply can't use that version of the language.
Instead,
you'll have to use AS2 (as far back as Flash Player 6) or AS1
(as far back
as Flash Player 5), or slash-notation proto-ActionScript if
you need to go
even further back than that. Ultimately, then, the version of
ActionScript
you use depends on the version of Flash Player you expect
your users to have
installed.
AS2 is the first version of ActionScript to officially
support custom
classes (external text files structured in a particular way,
using folders
for classpaths and the "class" keyword). For more information
on
classpaths -- written for AS2, but basically applies to AS3
-- see this URL:
http://www.quip.net/blog/2006/flash/understanding-classpaths
For many people (myself included), custom classes provide a
powerful way
to organize code into reusable objects -- just like the given
objects in
ActionScript's native API. Be aware, however, that custom
classes are *not
a required workflow* in AS2 or AS3. If you prefer, you may
place your AS2
or AS3 code into timeline keyframes, just like with AS1.
Contrarily, even
though true classes are not officially supported by AS1, you
can mimic many
of the benefits of classes by following the instructions here
(an incomplete
resource, but very useful):
http://www.debreuil.com/docs/
It would take pages and pages of notes to give you a
thorough list of
the benefits (and disadvantages!) of every version of
ActionScript. Even
then, it would be difficult to demonstrate that such a list
was complete, so
to keep things simple: as a general rule, each new version of
ActionScript
is presumed to be better than its predecessor. AS1 was more
powerful than
Flash 4-era ActionScript because it provided a considerably
larger API. AS1
also made it easier to target objects with dot notation than
with slash
notation and cumbersome getProperty() and setProperty()
functions. AS2 was
more powerful than AS1 because it provided native support for
classes. It
introduced variable typing, which helped with code completion
and
compile-time error checking. (AS2 also coincided with an even
larger API,
but that's a parallel benefit due to increased functionality
in subsequent
versions of Flash Player.) AS3 is more powerful than AS2
because the syntax
of custom classes has become more strict. I personally find
that stricter
syntax helps a programmer avoid "lazy" or "sloppy" practices,
encouraging
the programmer to code with purpose.
For more thoughts along these lines, here's a free excerpt
from a book I
recently co-authored for O'Reilly (bear in mind, these are
largely
subjective opinions, but they work for me):
http://www.communitymx.com/abstract.cfm?cid=16D76
I'll probably start repeating myself soon, but to sum up:
AS2 has
advantages over previous versions because it provides
numerous options and
improvement in ease of use. AS3 improves even further by
"cleaning up" the
language by making it more strict and by providing a stronger
internal
consistency.
Here are a few quick examples.
In AS2, to create an instance of the Sound class (that is,
an object you
can use for programming audio), you simply use the "new"
keyword:
// AS2
var mySound:Sound = new Sound();
Most classes can be instantiated in this way, but in AS2,
there are
notable exceptions, including movie clips and text fields.
// AS2 -- this does NOT work!
var myMC:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
var myTF:TextField = new TextField();
This can be confusing to a newcomer, because it seems so
arbitrary.
(Someone new might well think, "Why can't instances be made
the same way
across the board?") In AS3, instantiation is more consistent:
// AS3
var mySound:Sound = new Sound();
var myMC:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
var myTF:TextField = new TextField();
This is also true for event handling. In AS2, there are four
or five
ways to do it: the on() and onClipEvent() functions, their
dot notation
equivalents, addListener(), and addEventListener(). They're
all valid in
AS2, but not all interchangeable. Some work for components,
some for other
sorts of objects. It takes effort to memorize which objects
work with which
approach. In AS3, outside of a very small number of
exceptions, most event
handling is done with a single, consistent approach:
addEventListener().
For a newcomer, this is easier to learn because once the
technique is
understood, it works in nearly every scenario.
As far as performance is concerned, AS3 trumps AS2
significantly. AS3
performs better and faster than all previous versions of
ActionScript -- but
you'll only notice this with complex applications, especially
those
involving a high volume of number crunching.

You also asked which version of the language has more "info
and
resources." By that, I assume you mean online resources, such
as blogs,
tutorials, and so on. That question is hard to answer, but my
*guess* is
that there are still more resources online about AS2 than AS3
... but AS3
will probably catch up soon.

Full Access Permissions and AutoMapping in Exchange 2007?

Hi,
Using Exchange 2007 and Outlook 2010. I have assigned Full Access Permissions to a mailbox but I don't know how to access that mailbox in Outlook. Can anyone point me in the right direction?
I see Exchange 2010 has a feature called automapping, which will load all mailboxes I have rights to in Outlook. Is there a similar feature in Exchange 2007? If not, what do I need to do in Outlook to access the other mailbox?
Thanks in advance,
Linn

Not in Exchange 2007.
You will have to add the mailbox manually:

Advantages and dis advantages of web dynpro java

Hi Guys,
May i know what are the advantages and dis advantages of web dynpro java?
Regards,
Madhu

Hi Madhu,
Web Dynpro (WD) is a proprietary web application user interface technology developed by SAP AG and exists in a Java (Web Dynpro for Java, WDJ or WD4J) and an ABAP (Web Dynpro ABAP[1] , WDA) flavor. Both have in general the same functionality, but usually one flavor is improved after the other, so temporary one flavor is more advanced than the other. Hence, the decision for one of the two flavors shall be based on organizational and business circumstances, but not on functionality.
WD follows an adapted MVC pattern and a model driven development approach ("minimize coding, maximize design") with a large number of dedicated hooks in generated code to place custom coding. It is intended for business applications that shall follow standardized UI principles, connect to backend systems and be scalable.
Main advantages of Web Dynpro over other technologies
typed access for design time checks, e.g. navigation links and messages are accessed via types instead of string keys like in JSF
diverse services for backend access, like aRFC, JEE and Web Service data models
integration with SAP Interactive Forms by Adobe, which are interactive PDF forms, during design (same IDE) and run time (data sharing)
integration with business process management and business rules management (since NetWeaver CE 7.1 EHP 1)
designed to support development big scale applications by adding multiple grouping layers on top of Java packages (DCs, SCs, products)
runs on different clients e.g. web browser, mobile device, widget engine
comes with a big collection of UI elements providing a wealth of functionality and only have to be configured but not programmed
Main disadvantages
proprietary, running only on SAP servers
less flexible due to support for multiple clients (i.e. custom html is not possible). To reduce the limitations, several measures have been taken. For example, WD supports so-called "islands" for e.g. flash applications that enrich the Web Dynpro UI element collection by rich UI elements. This disadvantage doesn't seem so serious but in fact basic features that user expect to receive cannot be implemented (e.g. coloured rows in table, colours in general, advanced aligning of simple UI elements (due to nonexistence of more complicated ones), selecting multiple rows in tree-like tables (this is due to preserving basic concept of WD) and many more). Having the flash feature means that developer completely avoids WD UI (And thus cannot use other features).
rendering speed in browser for larger tables (>1000 rows)
The designtime and runtime environment is part of SAP NetWeaver 7.0[2] (also known as Netweaver 2004s) and following releases.
The name comes after the original Dynpro library, whose name meant "Dynamic Program".
