Hi,
SAP is moving away from SAP proprietary technology to support common frameworks and standards which are already popular outside the SAP universe. The eSOA initiative is clearly a big step into that direction.
Every technology (including user interface frameworks) has pros and cons. Instead of trying to push one technology to fit all possible use cases SAP is now allowing customers to use the best UI technology for their specific needs. This includes Web Dynpro, Interactive Forms, Duet, Mobile and Flex.
Certainly Adobe Flex has established itself as the major Rich Internet Application (RIA) framework around. The Adobe Flex Book is one of fastest selling books from O'Reilly right now. There is a growing eco-system of Flex developers. By enabling integration between SAP and Flex, SAP customers can benefit from that eco-system and the engaging UI of Rich Internet Applications. I see a growing number of SAP customers who require rich and compelling user interfaces and therefore decide to build custom UI's with Adobe Flex. Some of those customers started with Visual Composer (which is a great UI modeling tool which can generate Flash UI), but then wanted to extend and customize the UI beyond the capabilities of VC. VC is a modeling tool, not a development environment. Flex Builder is targeted at developers (Eclipse based development environment) who want to create RIA and integrated them with backend applications.
I understand that the various options make it harder fro SAP developers to decide which tool to use for which purpose (certainly was easier when Deynpro was the only option), but strongly believe that end-users will benefit from the improved UI options which can be customized for specific tasks and user groups. Adobe and SAP continue to work together to integrate UI technologies (e.g. SAP is working on the integration of Flex/Flash UI into Web Dynpro).
Adobe Flex is part of Visual Composer Compiler capabilities. At SAP TechEd in Munich was an interessting demo of rendering webdynpro with Flex during the Demo Jam. For more information you can download the Demo Jam Video here.

  • Please help me, I need to use Flex with CF

    Hi everyone,
    I am starting to retract my brain from an intense 2 days to
    figure out how to use Flex with Coldfusion. I am using Coldfusion 8
    Beta (this part is good, don't need help for CF itself). I am also
    using Flex Builder 2 (with chart but this not the topic). I
    installed FDS 2.5 before to install ColdFusion 8 but I think CF8
    have is own FDS or something like that... anyway, it might help to
    mention it!
    Well, I tried HTTPService, RemoteObject, WebSer vice -
    NOTHING WORKS!!! Argh! Did I mention I spent 2 days? ;-)))
    Well, I start with the basic: a login form with an email (as
    a username) and a password to be validated. I have a CFC to do the
    validation and return a simple message (string): "OK' when it is
    valid and a custom message when it is not valid; depending if it is
    the password and/or the email which is not valid.
    I always got an error. Since the error is different depending
    of the method I use, I will explain the latest method I used in
    this message and try to concentrate on that method specifically!
    The method is WebService and here is the error:
    faultCode:Server.Error.Request
    faultString:'HTTP request error'
    faultDetail: 'Error: [IOErrorEvent type="ioError"
    bubbles:false cancelable=false eventPhase=2
    text="Error #2032: Stream Error .
    URL=http://localhost:8501/iDashboard/login.cfc"].
    URL: http://localhost:8501/iDashboard/login.cfc'
    Any help will be very useful!!!
    Thank's

    Cyber,
    This may be what you are looking for. It worked well for me.
    Flex is sweet, but with the number of people confused about setup
    with CF they sure aren't making any friends.

    You'd need to put the right stuff in the url to make it work,
    just like if
    you were calling a page that's expecting GET params. I don't
    really use the
    HistoryManager, so you'll need to either look into this
    yourself or ask
    someone who knows more about it.

  • Flex with Jboss

    Hi Friends
    I'm developing Flex with java using Blaze-DS under the
    Spring MVC. I've problem in using Jboss, Based on BlazeDS
    Installation guide
    http://opensource.adobe.com/wiki/display/blazeds/Installation+Guide
    configure the jboss with Flex.There is no problem with Flex running
    in Jboss but it couldn't establish connection and business logic
    with java, The Jboss server couldn't through any errors. These same
    war file run under the tomcat server. So please help me to solve
    this problem.
    Thanks&Regrads
    Prakasam

    I don't have any experience with Spring MVC but I was using
    JBoss with Blaze-DS without a problem.
    so my next question is, can you make a echo to work??
    eg, make a function that returns the input string back to the
    flex client.

  • Using Flex with Microsoft Project

    I am absolutely brand new to FLEX. What I saw on the Adobe
    site was a data chart that could be drilled down to expose
    additional layers of "contriburory detail" for the master graph.
    What I am wondering is if it is possible to do something
    similar using Micrsoft Project Data as the basis. MS Project will
    allow users to save the file as XML. So, all the data should be
    available in a form understandable to FLEX.
    Here's the tricky part (and I can add more detail if needed).
    Project will create a summary line (at some level of indentue) and
    show you a calculated %Complete such as 47%. So, level of indenture
    1 I have the major summary tasks of the project at various status
    of %Complete. I believe FLEX can make some type of bar or pie chart
    out of that for me. What I want to do is click on a "Level1"
    indenture and have it expose the Level2 indure that contributes to
    that 47%. Then drill on one of the Level2's to Level3 .... to Level
    "n".
    This needs to be accomplished in "stand alone" fashion so the
    ultimate user can launch a desktop application and tell the
    application the name of the Microsoft Project XML file. We will not
    be able to use Client/Server ... client side only with the file
    located either locally or at least on a network drive.
    Can this be done? Has anyone looked at a MS Project XML
    schema to see if there is sufficeint information available?
    OK, now the blunt truth. It ain't %Complete that I care
    about. What I care about is BCWS, BCWP, ACWP, %Complete, and a few
    other parameters. These are the "Earned Value Fields". If you do
    not know what they are, don't worry about it just now .... it is
    really all just time phased data.
    Can anyone give me some advice or an opinion? TIA.

    Hi Shay,
    Thanks for the reply.
    In our case we will be getting pre-designed Flex UI pages with separate components. We have to logic in Business Layer to do the CRUD operations with displaying of Graphs.
    Just read Edwin Biemond [http://biemond.blogspot.com/2008/07/crud-operations-in-flex-with-adf-bc.html] posts on the same. (integration using Adobe livecycle or blazeDS).
    But still not sure how to manage and maintain this whole stack for an application having 50+ pages.
    So bit curious how to start the same.
    I have posted the same in [http://forums.adobe.com/thread/646720?tstart=0] Flex forum also. Hope to get the reply soon
    Thanks.

  • Flex with Hibernate using HTTP

    Hi All,
    am new to Flex. Can any one post a simple code on Flex with
    Hibernate using HTTP , i mean connecting to database using
    Hibernate and invoking the hibernate by using the HTTP service.
    can we have a sequence like
    Flex(MXML)->JSP->Hibernate->Database .Is it possible?
    Thanks in Advance

    > can we have a sequence like
    Flex(MXML)->JSP->Hibernate->Database .Is it possible?
    That's exactly what you're going to have and it certainly is
    possible. (Replace the JSP with Servlet, Struts Action, JSF or
    whatever)
    Usually you'll send data back -- output to JSP or write to
    HttpServletResponse object -- in XML or JSON format. The data would
    be delivered to the result event of the HTTService in Flex. If it
    fails for some reason, the fault event of HTTService class would be
    invoked.
    The important thing to realize about Flex is that it cannot
    directly connect to a DB; you need a server side action that would
    get data from wherever write it to response. It's more like Ajax
    calls to a JSP/Servlet.

  • Flex with WebDynPro

    hi all.
    can anyone tell me ..if we can use Flex with WebDynPro.....?
    can we develop flex in NWDS....?
    Regards,
    Sudheer

    Well you can use Flex inside plain HTML pages.  It isn't really much different when using them inside JSP.  I'm really just talking about embedding and hosting the flash player.  If you want greater interactivity between the Flex portions and the JSP I suggest that you search on the internet for FABridge (Flex Ajax Bridge).  This allows you to use JavaScript to interactive with the flex component.  I've used this technology within BSP quite a bit:
    [/people/thomas.jung/blog/2007/11/14/an-introduction-to-flob-flex-on-bsp|/people/thomas.jung/blog/2007/11/14/an-introduction-to-flob-flex-on-bsp]
    Since BSP and JSP are so similar, the same concepts could easily be applied in JSP.
    As to the Web Dynpro Islands - the development of the first version is complete and will start to ship in a controlled rollout with Web Dynpro ABAP in NetWeaver Enhancement Package 1 (Q3 2008). I believe that at first we plan to only have SAP delivered components, but will eventually open it up so that anyone can create components that run within the Islands.
