Call VB from BSP

Hi,
anyone know if it's posible to call a VB app from within a BSP...? Or even, more generally, executing Windows commands (including starting applications) from a BSP?
trond

Hi Trond,
Microsoft provided the feature of starting desktop applications from within the IE for a while (without being aware of it). But people didn't really like it and were considering it as a security hole. How bad for us developers, isn't it?
However, if you really want to scare your users, you can still do the following in your BSP app:
1) create a string which looks like the command line of starting the windows app. This one here e.g. starts the SAP GUI and connects to system XXX with TA SE80:
CONCATENATE 'cd Program FilesSAPFrontEndSAPgui' cl_abap_char_utilities=>newline
'sapshcut.exe -sid=XXX -clt=150 -cmd=SE80 type=Transaction -l=en' INTO lv_htm.
2) create an url including a file name ending with a '.bat' extension
3) create a response object and add the string as data, set header cdata/status etc. & upload everything into the server cache
4) use the url as reference in a link element or something
Now you just have to convince your users to push the 'Open' button on the download window after they have selected the link and the batch file is executed.

Calling WDA from BSP

Hi all,
Is it possible to call WDA from a BSP via a hyperlink and pass parameters that the WDA would need? How could I go about doing this?

Hi Alexander,
You can't pass the information(Context Data) from WDA to BSP directly so you just store the information in some variables or internal tables use the normal user paramenters like EXPORT & IMPORT or SET and GET parameters. Thgoruhg this way only you can communicate the data between these 2 technologies otherwise you need to save the data in some ztable and use the same table in both technoloes.
you can also use Server Side Cookies.
Perhaps take a look into this blog from Koen Labie:
/people/koen.labie2/blog/2006/11/29/eating-cookies-with-webdynpro-and-bsp
The blog shows how to pass the data from BSP to WD.
Transfering data between WD and BSP via Server side Cookies can also be used for your requirement.
For that you have to set the Data Cookie in the WD and then get the Cookie in the BSP.
Please keep in mind that if you mix two different technologies you will have to deal with integration. WD and BSP will run in two different sessions at the server. Handling data exchange, login, logoff, data transfer at the server and client, etc can be challenging. You might end up with recreating enterprise portal-like software. So depending on the scope of the project, it might be more advisable to stay within the BSP environment or to reuse the SAP enterprise portal to integrate these two technologies at the client.
Hope this will help you.
Cheers,
Darshna.

Call webdynpro from BSP (MVC)

Hi, gurus!
I have simple bsp created using MVC. I have my own component which includes MainWindow with controller class by default and a view with controller class and model class. Everything was created using Wizard.
I need to call webdynpro app from this BSP in WEB UI. I have a code that get WD url, then I'm trying to use navigation in DO_REQUEST method whih I redefine for a view controller class:
data: l_wd_url type string.
call method cl_wd_utilities=>construct_wd_url
    exporting application_name = 'Z_XR_BP_COURCES'
    importing out_absolute_url = l_wd_url .
    navigation->goto_page( l_wd_url ).
In test mode it's working fine, but when I call this BSP through WEB UI I recieve an error message:
"Business Server Page (BSP) error
What happened?
Calling the BSP page was terminated due to an error."
Sorry, if my question a little bit stupid =), but i'm new in BSP.
Could anyone help me?

Calling DLL from BSP

hi,
Can anyone suggest me how to call a dll in a bsp. if you can help me with a sample code it'll be helpful.
Thnx in Advance
Vinodh

What exactly do you mean by calling a DLL? Do you want to host an ActiveX Control? Do you want to call a DCom Object or a .Net Object? Or perhaps you are wanting to call a WebService writting in .Net?
For a Native DCom Object or .Net Object your would need the SAP DCom Connector or .Net Connector respectively. For an ActiveX control, BSP is no different than any other Web environment - Client Side JavaScript or VBScript should do the trick. I'm sure you can google many an example from the Web.
If I am off base here, just let me know. Also this question might be better suited to the BSP forum instead of the ABAP one.

Calling Iview from BSP Iview

Is it possible to call a transaction iview from a BSP iview .
i want to trigger a transaction iview when i click a button in my BSP iview .
thanks in advance .
J

hi,
The URL that you get on previewing your Transaction iView is the one that needs to be used in your BSP as:
<a href = "http://sgssmcepdv:52000/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/pcd!3aportal_content!2fcom.hcl.FLD001!2fSiddharthaID!2fiViewsID!2fMisc!2fepcmID_0" >hello </a>
Te get the url correctly,open the Transaction iView,in the properties look for the property PCD Location
It will be something like
portal_content/com.hcl.FLD001/SiddharthaID/iViewsID/Misc/epcmID_0
Now in place of the '/' replace !2f .
portal_content!2fcom.hcl.FLD001!2fSiddharthaID!2fiViewsID!2fMisc!2fepcmID_0
Now the complete URL would be
http://sgssmcepdv:52000/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/pcd!3aportal_content!2fcom.hcl.FLD001!2fSiddharthaID!2fiViewsID!2fMisc!2fepcmID_0
Ok.
Then test the BSP Iview.

Calling Z function module from BSP page

hi,
i am calling a z function module from BSP application ROS_SELF_REG ,The z function module is inside a z function group,It does not give any sytnax error..but while running BSP application ,it is going into dump saying that Z function module is not found..Any idea why this is happening???

Hi,
Check whether the Z function module is spelled correctly. Also try activating the whole function group and function module in se80 transaction.
Check whether the BSP application is calling the Z FM from the correct server/client where it is available.

Urgent: call ABAP program from BSP

hi BSP experts,
We just want to trigger an ABAP program to say "Hello World" in BSP and see the wording "Hello World" on web browser when running it from BSP. One BSP expert Raj gave the answer by using the following in BSP:
oninitialization:
submit ('z_program_name') and return exporting list to memory.
call function 'LIST_FROM_MEMORY'
       tables
            listobject = listobject.
call function 'WWW_HTML_FROM_LISTOBJECT'
       exporting
            report_name = 'z_program_name'
       tables
            html        = html
            listobject = listobject.
clear output_str.
loop at html into html_wa.
    concatenate output_str html_wa into output_str.
endloop.
layout code:
<htmlb:content design="design2003">
<htmlb:page title = " ">
<htmlb:form>
<%= output_str %>
</htmlb:form>
</htmlb:page>
</htmlb:content>
We put the above in our BSP and then activate them, but get the following error:
Field "LISTOBJECT" is unknown. It's neither in one of the specified tables nor defined by a "DATA" statement. "DATA" statement."DATA" statement.
And the error stopps here:
submit ('z_program_name') and return exporting list to memory.
call function 'LIST_FROM_MEMORY'
tables
listobject = listobject.
Any idea?
We will give you reward points!

hi Tanguy,
Eventually, I have figured it out on how to make the code works by showing "Hello World!" on web browser. But actually we would like to run another ABAP program which open a new container on users' machines, download an Excel template stored on server to the opened container on users' machinese, and then dump SAP table data to the opened excel template. This program works very well through SAP GUI, but users would like to run it on web that we tried to run this program in BSP, but it doesn't work with your code! Any idea?
Thanks alot!

Calling SAP Transaction from BSP

I wonder whether it is possible to call SAP transaction from BSP application and pass to it some data; e.g., PO# when calling VA02?
The called transaction could appear in a separate MS IE Window (like in some Portal applications) or in SAP GUI.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thank you in advance

I have launched the Java SAPGui from BSP pages before. I used SNC so that the users were logged on via Single Sign On. I store the Java Gui in the Mime directory. You can force the startup transaction. Theorectically you could also Gui Scripting to try and control the Gui and force in the default value for your PO field. I have not tried that however. You will probably want to check the Service Marketplace for documents on the Gui Scripting. The following is the code from my BSP page to launch the Java Gui in the Browser as an applet:
<%@page language="abap"%>
<%@extension name="htmlb" prefix="htmlb"%>

How to call Java API from BSP?

I have a requirement to call Java API from BSP application.
I have checked the forum and found that it is possible by using some ABAP codes.
However there is no pointer on how this is done.
Can someone explain the details on how to call Java API from BSP is done?
I found class CL_EJB_JAVA_OBJECT_METHODS to call a method in EJB but can't find function or SAP class to call Java API.
Actually is there any BSP extention which can used to call Java API?
Thanks,
Hendri

Call SAP function from BSP

Hi BSP Gurus,
I am new to BSP World.
I was told that review the existing BSP module and modify the SAP function module to take care of the new business unit.
Now my question is where to start ?....do I need to know the existing BSP module ? How would I know what SAP function is being called from BSP ?
Please help.
With regards,
Pranav

Calling ABAP Code From BSP

Hello all,
I dont have much idea of BSP ans would like to have some inputs from you all.
I would like to know that can I call ABAP transaction from BSP page ?
I have got a set of column entries just as an ALV column on my BSP page and I would like to provide hotspot or double click functionality so that for each of the entries in the table , the BSP page navigates to ABAP tcode and back to BSP page.Is this functionality possible?
any help would highly be appreciated.
Regards
Amruta

Hi Amruta ,
You can't call an R/3 transaction directly from BSP.
But you can achieve all the functionalities it does .
for ex ..if an r/3 transaction is a report , u hav to code in BSP editor .u can call function modules from BSP .
But one thing u hav to concern is ,,in BSP Apllication logic is seperatd from Business logic .
U hav to move all your results into an itab / params and display that inside HTML tables .
Start ur journey from here .......
