Help or tutorials about ABAP UI programming such as Tree and dock container

Hi,
I'm looking for help, tutorials or any ressources I can explore to undertsand how to work in ABAP with controls, containers, tree and so on.
Each time I do a search on help.sap.com, I found help on a detailed object such as tree or docking container but I never found a global view. I would like to understand the big picture, have an averview of all involved concept. For example, if I want the user screen to be splitted in 2 parts, one that will display a tree, the other one that will display "simple" screen painter trees that will change depending on what user choose using the tree on the left. How do I need to proceed ?
I'm sorry if I have not a more precise question because I don't found where to begin.
Thanks for help
Regards
Morgan

Hi Morgan,
You can start going thorugh the concepts from help.sap.com. Have a look at the following link:
http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_04/helpdata/EN/1b/337930a63011d2bd6b080009b4534c/frameset.htm
You will get the entire set of Example codes in the Transaction Code : ABAPDOCU.
You can also look for examples for Dialog Programing in SE38 using the DEMODYNPRO*.
Have a look at the Package : SLIS. This is a one point of all examples and demo of SAP Control Framework and ALV Functionality.
Hope this helps.
Thanks,
Samantak.

Need help with some code ... Searching a tree and inserting data

I'm trying to write code for the addIterative method below.
My problem is that I also need to search the list or node to see if the word exists.
The method add(word,line,position,iterative) validates the parameters; and, in order to update the tree and/or any relevant linked-list, calls either the incomplete method addIterative(word,line,position) or the incomplete method addRecursive(word,line,position). Note the following: if the word is not contained currently in the tree, then all of the (word,line,position) triplet needs to be added to the data structure; otherwise, only the (line,position) pair needs to be added to the data structure. The result must be the same regardless of the algorithmic strategy employed.
any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, new to java, and very lost.
regards,
Jimmy

hey,
ok, wow, that was intense, my brain hurts!!!!
And now I've got to go do a graduate program test, argh!!!
A problem I keep getting is trying to figure out what my lecturer is doing in the start of the Tree091 class,
that is, I can see that he is constructing the list and tree but it appears that he is doing it all at the same time, and I'm getting confused with what actually gets inserted into the list, and do we insert the word, line and position, or just the line and position?
Also, I didnt use a 'while loop', I'm not sure how, but I found a 'for loop' in the text book, what do you think of it? Is it ok for now?
And I'm getting an error at this line:
Tree091 ins = new Tree091(char[] word); // getting error '.class' expected here
any ideas?
heres what I've got so far:
private void addIterative(Comparable char[] word,int line, int position){
// Insert char[] word into the this BST
     int direction = 0;
     Tree091 parent = null, curr = root;
     for (;;) {
          if (curr == null) {
               Tree091 ins = new Tree091(char[] word); // getting error '.class' expected here
               // word found so we call insertList method
               insertList091(line, position, List091 precursor);
               if (root) == null)
                    root = ins;
               else if (direction < 0)
                    parent.left = ins;
               else // direction > 0
                    parent.right = ins;
               return;
          direction = elem.compareTo(curr.element);
          if (direction == 0)
               return;
          parent = curr;
          if (direction < 0)
               curr = curr.left;
          else // direction > 0
               curr = curr.right;
}And heres an attempt at the insertList method
private void insertList(char[] word, int line, int position, List091 precursor){
// Insert line and position at a given point in this List091, either after the node
// precursor, or before the first node if precursor is null
// Looking at assignment question we may need a double linked list
     List091 ins = new List091 (char[] word, line, position, null);
     if precursor == null) { //insert before first node (if any).
          ins.successor = first;
          first = ins;
     } else {
          ins.successor = precursor.successor;
          precursor.successor = ins;
}How far off am I Joachim?

A very confusing issue about ABAP HR programming

Dear,
I have a curious problem,when i am using HR_infotype_operation function to insert a record into info type 0016.
EG; a person 'James' his contract date is between 2010.01.01-2010.12.31. i want to add one year's contract for him.
Then the contract should be 2011.01.01-2011.12.31 . But when i call function 'HR_infotype_operation',it inserts an record like this .2011.01.01-2013.12.31 ,it automatically add three years contract!
     This is my code:
program ztest.
data ls_p0016 type p0016.
DATA ls_return      TYPE bapireturn1.
selection-screen begin of block b1 with frame TITLE text-001.
PARAMETERS per type p0016-pernr.
PARAMETERS cn_begda type p0016-begda.
PARAMETERS cn_endda type p0016-begda.
parameters mod type PSPAR-ACTIO.
selection-screen end of block b1.
ls_p0016-pernr = per.
ls_p0016-endda = '99991231'.
ls_p0016-begda = cn_begda.
ls_p0016-cttyp = '01'.
ls_p0016-ctedt = cn_endda.
CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_EMPLOYEE_ENQUEUE'
    EXPORTING
      number = per
    IMPORTING
      return = ls_return.
CALL FUNCTION 'HR_INFOTYPE_OPERATION'
    EXPORTING
      infty         = '0016'
      number        = per
      subtype       = ''
      validityend   = ls_p0016-endda
      validitybegin = ls_p0016-begda
      record        = ls_p0016
      operation     = mod
      dialog_mode   = '1'
      nocommit      = 'X'
    IMPORTING
      return        = ls_return
    EXCEPTIONS
      error_message = 4
      OTHERS        = 1
    commit work.
    CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_EMPLOYEE_DEQUEUE'
    EXPORTING
      number = per
    IMPORTING
      return = ls_return.

Hi,
You use fuction module to get leave in
               WHILE i_pa2001-begda <= date.
                SELECT SINGLE mofid FROM t001p INTO calid WHERE werks = wa_final-werks.
                  CALL FUNCTION 'HOLIDAY_CHECK_AND_GET_INFO'
                    EXPORTING
                      date                    = i_pa2001-begda
                      holiday_calendar_id     = calid
                      with_holiday_attributes = 'X'
                    IMPORTING
                      holiday_found           = lc_holiday_found
                    TABLES
                      holiday_attributes      = ltab_holiday_attributes.
                  CALL FUNCTION 'DAY_IN_WEEK'
                    EXPORTING
                      datum = i_pa2001-begda
                    IMPORTING
                      wotnr = day.
                  IF lc_holiday_found = 'X' OR day = 7.
                  ELSE.
                    sum_d = sum_d + 1.
                  ENDIF.
                  i_pa2001-begda = i_pa2001-begda + 1.
                ENDWHILE.
Above logic give you better idea about how to used function module and function module name

Abap Interface program

Can any one tell me a short description about Abap interface program also the difference between inbound and outbound interfaces ??

Hi
Interfaces
Interfaces only describe the external point of contact of a class (protocols), they do not contain any implementation.
Interfaces are usually defined by a user. The user describes in the interface which services (technical and semantic) it needs in order to carry out a task.
The user never actually knows the providers of these services, but communicates with them through the interface.
In this way the user is protected from actual implementations and can work in the same way with different classes/objects, as long as they provide the services required. This is known as polymorphism with interfaces.
Interfaces
In ABAP interfaces are implemented in addition to, and independently of classes. An interface only has a declaration part,
and do not have visibility sections. Components (Attributes, methods, constants, types) can be defined the same way as in classes.
· Interfaces are listed in the definition part lof the class, and must always be in the PUBLIC SECTION.
· Operations defined in the interface atre impemented as methods of the class. All methods of the interface
must be present in the implementation part of the class.
· Attributes, events, constants and types defined in the interface are automatically available to the class
carrying out the implementation.
· Interface components are addressed in the class by display.

Can you protect a PDF document so it cannot be exploded or converted into lines in programs such as illustrator?

We create PDF documents from our architectural programs all the time. Currently these drawings can be imported into other programs such as illustrator and exploded and ungrouped into lines. There is no option for security from this architectural program, but I need a solution to protect the PDF file so that the PDF is a flat image and cannot be exploded or converted into lines. Is there a program or setting in the Adobe programs that can do this??? thanks.

You can set password security using Acrobat (not PDF pack), but it is of no value against a motivated thief, because some apps ignore it.
You can rasterise in Photoshop but this is a terrible thing to do: file size explodes, quality plummets.

Anything you can use on a windows computer will work on a mac with windows 7 installed on it.

Transfer master data such as contacts and products from SRM to MDM catalog

Hi! We have a client who is not using PI as their middleware. They are using SRM 7 with SRM-MDM catalogue. My question is: do we definitely need PI in order to distribute product master and contract data to the catalogue? When programs such as BBP_CCM_TRANSFER_CATALOG and MECCM are run, is the data passed on to PI automatically? Or do they just generate an XML file in a designated location which we then use to upload to SRM-MDM Catalog? In this case, I suspect we can use other middleware to handle the upload into the catalog?
Appreciate clarification on the above.
Thanks!

Hi,
PI is required. Mapping is executed in PI.
If you do not want to have PI, you can develop custom extractor and mapping.

Can anyone help me? The iTunes update corrupted my program. I uninstalled, and then reinstalled iTunes; only to find an error message about iTunes Helper. After several fruitless, repeat attempts, I am at a loss. Please help…

Many thanks.
With the Error 2, let's try a standalone Apple Application Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of the issue.
Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR suitable for your PC (there's a 32-bit Windows version and a 64-bit Windows version):
http://www.rarlab.com/download.htm
Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleApplicationSupport.msi to do a standalone AAS install.
Does it install properly for you?
If instead you get an error message during the install, let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

Hi Naveen,
We saw your solution about this issue. We are also facing same issue. I wanted to know where we have to update scenario as simple scenario or integrated scenario.
And could you please tel me what is the main diff between in these two.
As we are are using PI 7.31 java stack so for this version what we have to use.

ABAP mapping
ABAP mappings run on ABAP Stack and are developed in the ABAP workbench of the Integration Server.
You normally do not need to use the ABAP mappings and is preferable for someone with ABAP programming background. I should say JAVA functions would suffice any complex scenarios.

XSLT stands for EXtensible Stylesheet Language Transformations. It is an XML based language for transforming XML documents into any other formats suitable for browser to display, on the basis of set of well-defined rules.

Steps required for developing XSLT Mapping
u2022 Create a source data type and a target data type
u2022 Create Message types for the source and target data types.
u2022 Create Message Interfaces includes Inbound Message interface and Outbound Message interface.
u2022 XSLT Mapping does not require creation of Message mapping, so donu2019t create any Message mapping.
u2022 Create an .XSL file which converts source data type into target data type.
u2022 Zip that .xsl file and import it into Integration Repository under Imported Archives.
u2022 In Interface Mapping choose mapping program as XSL and specify this zip program. (Through search help you will get XSL Mapping programs that you imported under Imported Archives, select your corresponding XSL Program)
u2022 Test this mapping program by navigating to Test tab.
By having look at above steps you can easily find out that this mapping is no where different from other mapping programs, here the challenging lies in creating an XSLT file. If you spend couple of minutes in studying XPATH tutorial you would be in ideal position to create an XSL Transformation (.xsl extension).
If you still find difficulties in generating XSL Transformation, then you can make use of a tool u201CAltova MapForceu201D which will create XSL file for you.
Steps for creating XSL file using this tool:
1. Open the Alto MapForce, import the source .xml and .xsd file in it
2. Similarly import the target .xml and .xsd in MapForce.
3. These two data files should match with source and target data types in Integration Repository.
4. Complete the graphical mapping using extensive list of XSLT functions available there.
5. Save the mapping file.
6. Click the XSLT tab. You will have the entire xslt logic there.
7. Copy that content and save it as .xsl file.
8. Zip above .xsl file and import the same into IR under Imported Archives.
Hope this clears your doubts

Can someone give me ABAP Dialog program /ALV Step by Step hands on examples

Can someone give me a document for ABAP Dialog programming(module pool) and ALV - but i need Step by Step example ,with sreenshots and explanations.
In general any ABAP, STEP BY STEP hands on examples - Smartform, Sapscrips, Report, BDC will be highly appreciated.
I only need hands on examples please - regular Abap courses does not work because they dont have examples.
Please help ASAP.

What temporary files are you talking about?

Help or tutorials about ABAP UI programming such as Tree and dock container
