Quick Question: ABAP web-dynpro model relies on JCO?

Hi gurus,
As mention in subject. Does ABAP web-dynpro model relies on JCO?
Did a quick search without solid answers...

JCO, is Java Connectors to connect SAP from Java world
You don't need any JCO when you are in the same ABAP Stack
There is no model Nodes/Attributes in Web Dynpro ABAP as in Java, because you are in the same ABAP Stack

Convert JAVA Web Dynpro to ABAP Web Dynpro application

Hi,
I was hoping someone could tell me if there is a way to port a JAVA Web Dynpro application to ABAP Web Dynpro. We have some JAVA WD apps that would now make more sense to have running on our ABAP system so we would like to convert them to ABAP WD apps.
I know the theory is that WD is metadata/XML based so it should be possible to port the WD definition to ABAP and have the ABAP runtime generate the application again in ABAP. I expect that any custom code that is written in JAVA would need to be manually rewritten in ABAP - but it would be great if there was tool or method to at least port the majority of the application.
Thanks in advance for your help,
Simon

Hi Simon
You are correct in thinking that all WD apps are based on metadata, but unfortunately, the similarity between WD Java and WD ABAP is just a conceptual one, and no such tool exists to convert one to the other.
In addition to this, there are certain implementation differences between ABAP and Java that mean you could not convert one to the other. For instance, the whole concept of model objects does not exist in WD ABAP. Therefore, structural entities used in WD Java such as model components could not be tranlsated into anything that exists in ABAP, because the concept is redundant in the target language.
Sorry about that, but Java and ABAP are sufficiently different beasts that such a tool is not possible.

Abap web dynpro and portal events

First off, a little introduction: My name is Martin Kroppen, I am an Abap developer for SAP Netherlands, and I am currently involved in a project for hospitals to built a portal. For this, I have created 2 Abap web-dynpros, and then impemented the views as iviews in an EP. What I want to achieve is that the input view triggers the display view on a second page, and the data is shown for the values in the input view (all in the same browser window).
I am using the portal integration manager for this, with the method for relative navigation.
The navigation is working fine, only problem is that I don't know how to handle the business parameters that I send over.
My questions are:
1. is this the correct way for navigating between abap webdynpro iviews in the portal?
2. what is the correct way to read the business parameters into my context of the second Abap WD application?
I tried the solution that is described below, I could not get it to work correctly.
If you define BUSINESS_PARAMETERS as application parameters in your Web
Dynpro application and the parameter names start with ″APP″, they will
automatically be forwarded to the startup plugs of the Web Dynpro application
provided they are marked as startup parameters. In this case, keep in mind that
the iView/page used as the navigation target must be assigned to the user role.
If it is not, navigation cannot be triggered.
Hope someone can help me
Regards
Martin Kroppen

ABAP Web Dynpro Window Inactive After Closing Popup Window

Hello ABAP'ers
I have a custom ABAP Web dynpro applications that uses multiple tiers of popup windows. This application was functioning properly in our ECC6.0, Basis release 7.00 Service level 15 environment. However, we are currently installing EHP4 and moving or basis release to 7.01 service level 5. In this new environment, when multiple popup window tiers are closed simultaneously, the underlining window is not re-activated.
Here's a more specific description:
The application starts with a control panel window presenting a series of buttons. Selecting one of these buttons activates a modal (I know... all web dynpro popups are modal) popup window for the purpose of maintaining some object. If the user attempts to exit this window without saving the changes, another popup window appears asking if they want to save their changes. If they say no, both the popup window asking the question and the popup maintenance window are closed, thus returning the user to the switchboard.
The problem is that none of the functionality on the switchboard is active. the user must manually refresh the URL to "reactivate" the switchboard.
When only a single popup window is closed, the underlying window is properly reactivated. The problem only occurs when multiple popups are closed together.
Has anybody else seen this occur? Any ideas / notes around to correct it?
Any info is greatly appreciated.

Hello Jim, hello everyone,
I am encountering the same issue.
Is a solution known already?

New ESS/MSS in ABAP web dynpro??

I heard from a somebody that the new ESS/MSS is going to be redeveloped by SAP on ABAP Web dynpro instead of java? Does anybody have info on this? or any links on articles, news etc.?

You need to replace the T&E portal content and Homepage Framework config (if using it) for the "older" Webdynpro Java version with the newer (EhP2) Webdynpro ABAP version. There is a very good step-by-step guide (I believe in Service Marketplace) that guides you through each and every change to make to switch one with the other. To your immediate questions...
(1) Those are the replacements for the WDJ iViews. They are pretty much the same. As said, you need to "switch them out".
(2) Switch out the WDJ iView with the WDA iView. The parameter needs to reflect YOUR ESS ROLE pcd path to the object. (the one you show is the standard SAP ESS role....which is fine if you are just using it as is).
Again, best to find that guide. I used it on my last project and it took all of maybe 30 min. to switch the old for new if you follow it.
Also, read all the help.sap.com info on it....

thanks in advance.

Hi Ramu,
Yes, ABAP Web dynpro is a Netweaver product. It cums with mySAP suite.
This is the hot technology in the market and if you are not a JAVA guy then you must go with ABAP Web dynpro.
Basically with the help of ABAP Web dynpro we develope custom products for the client. this is UI based technology and one of best option for "ABAPers" .
For Web dynpro ABAP you will require SAP ECC 6.0 onwards and WAS 7.0
is a must. It has very good future propspects as this is best UI technology.
In web dynpro ABAP we follow MVC(Model View Controller) architecture.
In this object oriented ABAP is used to provide background functionality. Here, your ABAP skills can be utilized to the fullest. Programming in web dynpro ABAP is different than conventional ABAP programming. Here we strictly follow MVC architecture in terms of controller interface. Also there are many wizards available so that we can directly pick the code from wizards.
e.g We can call BAPI through a service call in web dynpro application. Thus automatically backgroud code for BAPI execution will be generated.
To start with Web dynpro ABAP you can try following tutorial:
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/a282c952-0801-0010-1eb5-87953e036712
You can start with tutorials and all. There are around six tutorials in SDN library.

ESS 1.2 - ABAP Web Dynpro Clarifications

Hi all,
We are on Ehp 2 in ECC 6.0 with ESS 1.2 in EP 7.0 and using only 'Travel & Expense' part for our implementation. I have below clarifications
1. In ESS 1.2 package we have an Overview page and iView, I believe it is for JAVA Web Dynpro, will this support for ABAP Web Dynpro iViews or how to bring ABAP WebDynpro applications with Overview ?
2. I have Mirrored the ESS PCD Content and modified only 'Invisible in Navigation Areas' parameter. Now the issue I am facing is while selecting button 'Create Travel Request' under 'My Trips and Expenses'. The request is fetching the original content navigation instead of the new Mirrored content. Also while debugging we find the routing 'Navigation Context' as below:
DynamicParameter=SAP_FITV_ACTION=&SAP_FITV_EXIT_OP=CallTripsPOWL&SAP_FITV_TRIPCMP=R&HistoryMode=1&NavigationContext=ROLES://portal_content/com.sap.pct/every_user/com.sap.pct.erp.ess.bp_folder/com.sap.pct.erp.ess.roles/com.sap.pct.erp.ess.employee_self_service/com.sap.pct.erp.ess.employee_self_service/com.sap.pct.erp.ess.area_travel_expenses/com.sap.pct.erp.ess.12.request
Is this parameter set by default to fetch the content ? Is it possible to change this entry, if yes, how ?
Kindly let me know if any clues.
Thanks!
Sankar Kumar

Can any one please explain me this...
Thanks & Regards
Ravi shankar B

Hi
Webdynpro is not a complete MVC pattern stuff , but it has also a controller and views.Views are to be completely out of the business logic but webdynpro allows us to put business logic inside the views.
Controller and Windows acts as the Controller in the MVC pattern
Thanks

Anything new about abap web dynpro?

Hi out there!
(First, I'm sorry: I know, this question is related to Web AS General-forum, but I think, I wouldn't get any answer there.)
Is there anything new about abap web dynpro? Just saying wait for nw05? No nice preview/minisap/promotion? Perhaps documents in service.sap.com? I read, it is used in some ramp-ups for ecc 05 (neither knowing, what it is). Is there nothing to say about? Is it drag&drop deployment like java webdynpro or more coding like mvc-"Basteln" in abap/bsp? Are BSP-Extensions used there? Something exiting new?
That are enougth questions for starting.

Brian McKellar is gonna lock this thread:-)
Anyway you can find some info about WebDynpro for ABAP in the Teched 2003 presentations in SDN and there is a quite detailed overview with examples in the Online help.
For the linux version of NW'04 MiniSAP the non-supported version ABAP Dynpro is available....anyway for MiniSAP you don't get support;-)

Ps: "Something exiting new?"
The whole thing is something really exiting!!!

ABAP Web Dynpro CSS Stylesheets

Hallo,
I have a question concerning "ABAP Web Dynpro". My current task is to implement an application for our company intranet. This application must have the look an feel (corporate design) of the company I'm working for. How can I manage this by using ABAP Web Dynpros?
Where can the Stylesheets be found and how can I change them in order to fit our corporate design.
While answering please consider that I am a raw beginner concerning ABAP Web Dynpros.
Thank you in advance.
Kerstin Röck

You need to Change the Themes , For that you need ThemeEditor. You can download that from SDN. First install that and then Download the theme from Mime repository. and then Create a Theme Editor project (It is basically NWDS which consists of ThemEditior plug in).
Here you can change the CSS properties and then Go back and create a New theme under the Respective mime Repository.
Search in SDN also you get lot of articles and Forum questions.

ABAP Web Dynpro v/s BSP

Hi All
Can you pls tell the difference between ABAP Web Dynpro v/s BSP.
Regards
DM

Hi madan....
Web Dynpro for ABAP
Features
Web Dynpro ABAP is the SAP standard UI technology for developing Web applications in the ABAP environment. It consists of a runtime environment and a graphical development environment with special Web Dynpro tools that are integrated in the ABAP Workbench (SE80).
Web Dynpro offers the following advantages for application developers:
The use of declarative and graphical tools significantly reduces the implementation effort
*Web Dynpro supports a structured design process
*Strict separation between layout and business data
*Reuse and better maintainability by using components
*The layout and navigation is easily changed using the Web Dynpro tools
*Stateful applications are supported that is, if the page is changed, the data that is required remains intact so that you can re-access the data in the entire application context.
Note that stateless applications are not possible.
*Automatic data transport using data binding
*Automatic input check
*Automatic operation of the Web Dynpro application using the keyboard
User interface accessibility is supported
*Full integration in the reliable ABAP development environment
BSP
BSP applications are standalone Web applications with presentation, workflow and application logics that are self-contained in terms of function.
In many ways, BSPs are similar to the server page technologies (xSP)from other software manufacturers, such as Active Server Pages (ASP)from Microsoft and Java Server Pages (JSP) from Sun Microsystems.
This technology has become relatively widespread in the field of Web development thanks to its various advantages.

Hey how to upload ABAP web dynpro's in the EP server?

Hi Folks,
please let me know how to deploy the created ABAP Web Dynpro's into the Enterprise Portal.
thanks ,
NKumar

Hi NKumar,
You can put your web dynpro application on portal.
We can publish web dynpro application on portal through "iviews".
Portal eventing is necessary during a scenario where u have to communicate to another portal iview.say in portal u have your WDA app in one iview and another WDA or BSP app in another iview
But for WDA app,navigation inside its views you would not need portal eventing.
This Will help you,

Environment needed for developing, deploying the ABAP Web Dynpro

Hi all,
We have the following ECC environmnet in our office.
ERP 2005, RELEASE 6.0
KERNEL 7
COMPONENT ECC 6.0 NON -UNICODE SYSTEM
BASIS & ABAP SP 14
We also dont have Enterprise Portal and no PI or XI. can we develop ABAP Web Dynpro without EP?
I want to develop Web Dynpro's using ABAP. Can i do it? Do we need to install any thing else? any plug in..or do we need to upgrade our service pack?
We are on service pack 14 and on ABAP Stack.
Some one kindly help..this might be a simple question for many people...but i am really in need of information and could not get proper idea after reading the SDN and help.com
if some one has a link .that explains the environmnet that i should have for Web dynpro ABAP..please help.
Regards,
Jessica Sam

Thomas,
Thanks a lot for your patience. Few more minutes of your valuable time..need help.
So i can conclude that with my environmet and ABAP statck ..i can develop Web dynpro ABAP and BSP but not Adobe Forms.
We have BI system in our office which runs on Java Stack and our ECC system is only on ABAP stack.
But we were using ABAP Web services to build interfaces b/w SAP and .Net applications and hence we wanted to use SOAMANAGER,
But SOAMANAGER runs on Java Stack and we dont have Java stack on ECC but have on BI.
So what we did was..did some BASIS settings in BI and ECC systems and finally able to use SOAMANAGER of BI system to manage , create and deploy web services from our ECC system whihc is on ABAP Stack.
Similarly can I also use the Java Stack in our BI system and do some settings at ECC end such that I can buid the interactive forms in ECC and use the Java Stack of BI system.
Kindly please help..i am not getting answers to such questions in help.sap.com...may be people like you who are well experience will only able to guide me better.
Kind regards,
Jessica Sam
