Interactive form in WD4A - dynamic table - adding rows

Hi,
I have a problem with dynamic table in WD4A. User can add row to table by clicking a button on form, but added rows are not transfered to mapped context node in my web dynpro application. I have made a lot of searches on SDN and I have found a lots of threads, but no answer.
Maybe this should be a way:
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/weblogs?blog=/pub/wlg/9121. [original link is broken] [original link is broken] [original link is broken] - Read adobe data manually and create context element manualy too.. But I think this should be a part of webdynpro/interactive forms framework.
Thanks for any answer!

Hi, many thanks for your answer, so what do you think is the best solution for adding rows by user to interactive form's dynamic table?
Manually read xml data during submit by this way: https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/weblogs?blog=/pub/wlg/9121. [original link is broken] [original link is broken] [original link is broken] ?
Or is there better solution for this? (any link to some examples, blogs, etc...)
Many thanks for any answer!

Interactive form With a dynamic table inside that

Hi Experts,
i have an Adobe interactive form With a dynamic table inside that. Add/ Delete button is there inside the form to add and delete rows from the table. This is working fine when iam viewing the form in the preview of adobe designer. when i deploy and run the application, the dynamic table is not working, internally the rable rows are creating, but the rows are not displaying in the form.. iam getting messages(which i set) when the row is created or deleted, but its not updating on the form ..
iam using wdj
please suggest asap.

Create Interactive Form UI element Dynamically

Hi Experts,
I have a requirement according to which i need to create multiple PDF forms at runtime.
The approach that i would be using is creating interactive form U I element at runtime.
So as a test application in a views wdDoModifyView i added the below
In the do modify view i have added the below piece of code
if (!firstTime)
               IWDNodeInfo l_sel_nodeInfo =
                    wdContext.nodeCtx_vn_binary().getNodeInfo();
               IWDAttributeInfo l_attrInfo =
                    l_sel_nodeInfo.getAttribute(
                         IPrivateAdobeView1.ICtx_vn_binaryElement.CTX__VA__BINARY);
               if (view.getElement("adobeFrm") == null) {
                    IWDTransparentContainer container =
                         (IWDTransparentContainer) view.getElement(
                              "RootUIElementContainer");
                    IWDInteractiveForm adobeFrm =
                         (IWDInteractiveForm) view.createElement(
                              IWDInteractiveForm.class,
                              "adobeFrm");
                    adobeFrm.bindDataSource(
                         wdContext.nodeCtx_vn_adobe().getNodeInfo());
                    adobeFrm.setMode(WDInteractiveFormMode.UPDATE_DATA_IN_PDF);
                    adobeFrm.setTemplateSource("AdobeView1_InteractiveForm.xdp");
                    adobeFrm.setDisplayType(WDInteractiveFormDisplayType.NATIVE);
                    adobeFrm.bindPdfSource(l_attrInfo);
                    adobeFrm.setVisible(WDVisibility.VISIBLE);
                    container.addChild(adobeFrm);
                    adobeFrm.setTemplateSource("AdobeView1_InteractiveForm.xdp");
But now i am stuck at this point as its giving me null pointer exception on execution.
Could some one provide me links to the tutorials which contains dynamic creation of Interactive form UI element
Thanks in advance!!!

Hi Rekha ,
I do have this link but as per this tutorial the layout of adobe form is generated during design time whereas i need to create the mulitple PDF at runtime.These PDF need to be displayed to the user . The approach that i am using is to create Interactiveform U I element at runtime.
The code that i tried is already provided in my first post.I need some more concrete tutorials /examples for this.
Basically i need to know how to add elements like a table/textfield and data within those table/ textfields in an adobe form(Interactive form UI element) at runtime.
Regards ,
Navya.

How to binnding the data in the adobe interactive forms for making a table?

Hi, experts,
Function:
Through the sharing context node between adobe interactive form and a WDA for ABAP, display the data of the sflight_node in the ADOBE.
version:
Acrobat Reader 8.1.0
currently both of the SAP-ABA and SAP-BASIS SP level: 9
ADS : Successful.
The following is my action:
1.     Create a interface (Z_SFLIGHT_INTF) with a attribute node (SFLIGHT_NODE) that type is "sflight" using the transaction code "sfp"
2.     Create a form (Z_SFLIGHT_FORM) using the transaction code "sfp" with the interface Z_SFLIGHT_INTF.
3.     Trag the sflight_node in the Z_SFLIGHT_INTF to the form( Z_SFLIGHT_FORM).
4.     Open the layout tab in the form(Z_SFLIGHT_FORM), and create a table(table1). Click the table created just now, select the binding tab in the object tab, and in the Default Binding, select the SFLIGHT_NODE under the Z_SFLIGHT_FORM.
Problem 1:
Do you tell me whether is right for binding the context SFLIGHT_NODE using this way? If bind 3 context attributes in the sflight, how can I do it?
5.     Create a WDA for abap (ZZ_02_SFLIGHT), and create a view(MAINVIEW) using transaction code "se80" in the sap-gui with adobe interactive form. Set the templatesource(Z_SFLIGHT_FORM) in the adobe interactive form properties and saved, and then, datasource is "MAINVIEW_Z_SFLIGHT_FORM" automatically.
6.     But I only found the attribute SFLIGHT_NODE under the context node(Z_SFLIGHT_NODE), and I don't found the NODE ( SFLIGHT_NODE ) context in the context tab in the WDA for abap so that I don't set data to the context NODE (SFLIGHT_NODE).
Problem 2:
Do you tell me what can I do it so that I get the node SFLIGHT_NODE rather than attribute in the WDA for setting the data to the CONTEXT NODE (SFLIGHT_NODE)?
Thanks a lot.

Tao

Dynamic Table - Add rows and columns in same table

Hi there,
I wonder if someone could help please? I'm trying to create and table where a user can add both rows and columns (preferably with separate buttons) but am having trouble trying to figure out how to do this. Is it possible? If so how? I'm not familar with script but have found examples of seprate tables where you can add a row and then another table where you can add columns and essentailly want to merge the two but cannot make it work.
Any help much appreciated!
Thanks,
Ken

It is great example....you can learn the concepts there and apply....however you may have to think twice before you implement column adding dynamically....because the technique here is make copy of what we already have and reproduce it as a new item and this technique works great for rows as they all have every thing in common. But when it comes to columns it may have unique visible identity as column head and displaying repeatedly the same column head may not look good. Of-Course you can do few extra lines of code and change the column appearance based on users input each time. Situations where users need to add additional column is very unlikely (sure your requirement might be an exception).
Key in allowing adding/removing instances is managing design mode settings under Object>>Binding>>....and select the checkbox "Repeat <subform/row/...> for Each Data Item" and then set Min, Max and Initial count values.
Also you need to club your effots by using simple scipt with button clicks....
for the example refered in URL you posted following is what I did to make the first table allow Adding/Removing Rows....
1. Opened the form in LC designer.
2. Add two buttons AddRow & RemoveRow right next to RemoveColumn
3. For AddRow I used following JS code....
      Table1._Row1.addInstance(1);//that means any time this button is clicked a new instance of Row1 is added use _Row2 or Row3 based on your needs
      var fVersion = new Number(xfa.host.version); // this will be a floating point number like "7.05"
      if (fVersion < 8.0) // do this for Acrobat versions earlier than 8.0
       // make sure that the new instance is properly rendered
       xfa.layout.relayout();
4. For RemoveRow I used following JS code....
     Table1._Row1.removeInstance(1);//Syntax is...<objectReference>.removeInstance(<index of the repeating object that needs to be removed>); //in this case since we used 1 alwasys second object from top gets deleted.
      var fVersion = new Number(xfa.host.version); // this will be a floating point number like "7.05"
      if (fVersion < 8.0) // do this for Acrobat versions earlier than 8.0
       // make sure that the new instance is properly rendered
       xfa.layout.relayout();
5. Now time to update settings at Object>>Binding tab and set "Repeat......" and also set Min, Max and Initial count as explained above.
     Those settings needs to be updated for Row1 (or your choice of row) of the table
6. Set the Height to Expand of the Subform, where the table is housed.... this is done under Layout pallet
7. Save the PDF as dynamic template and verify the results...
If you still run into issues I can send you copy that works on my machine, but you need send me an email at n_varma(AT)lycos.com
Good luck,

Problem with Dynamic table having row map.

Hi,
I need to create a table dynamically based on following inputs:
a.)Name and number of columns will be decided dynamically at run-time.
b.) Each row will contain a map of column values ,which will be dynamically generated by some other class.
In the same way multiple tables need to be created dynamically.
I tried created table for the same as following:
RichTable tb=new RichTable();
tb.setId("trs");
tb.setValue(UICredRowList.getMapListforRows());
for(Iterator itr=header.iterator();itr.hasNext();)
String headerKey = (String) itr.next();
RichColumn myCol = new RichColumn();
ExpressionFactory efact = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance(). getApplication().getExpressionFactory();
ValueExpression valExpr1 = efact.createValueExpression( elContext1,"#{row["+headerKey+"]}",Object.class);
resolveExpression("#{row["+headerKey+"]}") ;
myCol.setId("tc1");
myCol.setSortable(false);
myCol.setWidth("250");
myCol.setHeaderText(headerKey);
RichOutputText rot1 = new RichOutputText();
rot1.setValueExpression("value", valExpr1);
myCol.getChildren().add(rot1);
tb.getChildren().add(myCol);
Here when I checked the column value from Expression I am getting value as null.
Can someone help me how can I handle this type of table.Example will be highly appreciated.
Thanks in Advance
Sunil

Which JDeveloper version do you use, if you use 12c or 11R2 you should find this option when you drag and drop the table to auto generate columns dynamically.

Hello,
It seems that your Cube doesn't accepts lower case letters. You can change this setting in RSKC to accept all the characters. The other way is to write a small code in the update rules or the transformation which will convert all the incoming data to upper case and then push it to the Cube.
Do assign points if it helps.
Thanks

Footer overflow in dynamic table

Hi,
great forum here.. so i have a problem with livecycle form...
I build up a form with a dynamic table, adding rows with a click on "+".
The footer is working correctly ( once visible on the end of the table, not repeated) .
One cell in the first row is growing automatically, depending on the text which is entered.
If the table does not fit on the page ( because of the added rows or because of the text in the cell ) , there is a break and the table is continuing on the second page.
These work fine.
Problem:
But if the table is broken on the second page, and i will click "+" for adding new rows, 1 or 2 rows are added on the first page;
because there is space left, because of the footer, which is now on the second page.
changing the free-area on master page did not help me.
my given conditions are:
the footer have to be tied on the last row of the table, that means: if the table is broken, at least one row should appear on the second page.
Can anybod help me please ?
here is my document:
http://acrobat.com/#d=bQadx7MnDYcNxLTLDCDdfg
thanks

Did you set the permission to allow everybody to view the file on acrobat.com? I am able to log in to acrobat.com - and I am logged in, but it tells me I need the latest Flash Player. I have just installed the latest and rebooted my iMac, but I still can't access your file. So I can't view your table...
One way around this is to create the table from individual objects, i.e., if each row has one Text and one Numeric cell = two cells per row, then
drag a Text field onto the Layout page, followed by a Numeric field.
wrap them in a subform.
Now you have your row. Then add the leader (header) and/or trailer (footer) objects. Proceed from here with your '+' and so forth.
Conclusion - a table doesn't have to start with the formal Table object. You can create your own manual (more flexible) table.

Reading Dynamic Table Values in interactive form (web Dynpro ABAP)

Hi All,
I have created a Web Dynpro ABAP application which contains an Interactive Form, That Adobe Interactive Form contains Dynamic table (New rows can be added manually and deleted using a button).
I am not able to read the Dynamic table values in Web Dynpro u201COn Submitu201D.
In the Adobe form I have web Dynpro native button (I am using ZCI), while clicking the native button I need to read the dynamic table values.
How can I resolve this problem.
Thanks and Regards,
Boopathi M

that means, when u add the table instance at runtime, you will also have to add an element to the node that is bound to the table.
probably addNew() mathos may be useful to you.
it appends a new record to the record set.
xfa.sourceSet.dataConnectionName.addNew()
also when on the exit event of the table field, do the following:
var i = xfa.parent.index
$record.rootnodename.tablenodename.data<i>.fieldname = $.rawValue
xfa.host.messageBox($record.rootnodename.tablenodename.data<i>.fieldname)

a table as there in the webdynpro view.
        I have designed a dynamic table in interactive form and binded the interactive form ui element with the datasource and pdfSource.
In the interactive form i am getting only one row data of webdynpro view table.In the Object palette, I selected Repeat Row For Each Data Item.

Dynamic Table in PDF - only first row passed to the WD Java

Hi Experts,
I'm working with Web Dynpro for Java on WAS 2004s SP13, ADS for SP13 and LiveCycle Designer 7.1
I am facing a problem related to PDF-dynamic table generation.
I am creating the PDF form with a dynamic table, an empty row will be added, when ADD button is clicked, the row will be deleted when DELETE button is clicked. After form submit, only first row of the table is passed to the Web Dynpro. I'v tried to use different dataSource Context node structure without results. The structure diescribed in the thread [Dynamic Table - same data repeating in all rows; doesnt works for me. The same happend if i try to folow the advise from Wiki https://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/WDJava/Creating%20Table%20in%20Interacting%20form%20using%20Web%20Dynpro.
Beside this, my DropDown list in the table column is not populated. I know how to populate the DropDown list outside of table. That's working fine. But the DropDown in the table just not respond on the click (is not going open). I'm pretty sure that this is a result of a Context node structure/binding issue.
Please suggest me how can i implement dynamic table and populate the data in table dropdown column.
Edited by: A. Mustacevic on Sep 7, 2009 12:18 AM

Hi Prabhakar,
You describe exactly my situation. The node which is bound to the table row has cardinality 1..n. Exactly Context structure is:
node dataSource (cardinality 1..1/ Singleton true) ======> dataSource of the Interactive Form
subnode TableList (cardinality 1..1/ Singleton true) ======> bound to the table in the Interactive Form
subnode TableWrapper (cardinality 1..n/ Singleton true) ======> bound to the table row in the Interactive Form
subnode TableData (cardinality 0..1/ Singleton false) ======> table data
attribute 1 ====> Context nodeattribute bound to the table row field
attribute 2
This structure is recommanded in the post that I found on the Forum (see the firs hyperlink in my firs post).
Is this structure correct? Why is not working?
Your link is not working. Can you post the correct one.
Thanks in advance.
Regards
Adnan
