Returning an array type from a local method in Web Dynpro Java application

Hi,
In my project, we have a requirement to display 18 rolling months along with the year, starting from current month.
How I am going to approach is that I will get the system date and get the current month and send the month and year value to a local method which will return 18 rolling months along with the year.
But, when I tried to create a new method there is no option to return an array type. It was greyed out.
So, we can not return an array type from a method from Web Dynpro for Java application?
If so, what is the alternative and how am I going to achieve it?
I will appreciate your help!
Regards
Ram

HI
You can create new methods in
//@@begin others
private ArrayList MyMethod(){
// ** Put your code here
return new ArrayList();
//@@end
Other option are create a context node with cardinality 0...n with one or more attributes, and in your method create the needed registers into this node. To read this values, you only need to read your context node.
Best regards

HTTP form post from Web Dynpro Java Application without opening new window

Hi Experts,
We are trying to submit form data to an external URL from Web Dynpro Java application. We are achieving this with the following piece of code.
try
   strPrintContent="<html>"+
     "<head>"+
     "<script type=\"text/javascript\">"+
     "function myfunc () "+
     "{"+
     "var frm = document.getElementById(\"paymentForm\");"+
     "frm.submit();"+
     "}"+
     "</script>"+
     "</head>"+
     "<body onLoad=myfunc()>"+
     "<form id=paymentForm method=post action=\""+merchantURLPart+"\">"+
     "<INPUT type=hidden name=username value="+userName+">"+
     "<INPUT type=hidden name=pass value="+passWord+">"+
     "<INPUT type=hidden name=senderid value="+senderID+">"+
     "<INPUT type=hidden name=dest_mobileno value="+mobile+">"+
     "<INPUT type=hidden name=message value='"+msg+"'>"+
     "<INPUT type=hidden name=response value="+response+">"+
     "</form>"+
     "</body>"+
     "</html>";
IWDWebResource webResource = WDWebResource.getWebResource(strPrintContent.getBytes(),WDWebResourceType.HTML);
IWDWindow window = wdComponentAPI.getWindowManager().createNonModalExternalWindow(webResource.getAbsoluteURL(),"WBSEDCL");
window.show();
catch(Exception e)
wdComponentAPI.getMessageManager().reportException("Error : "+e.toString(),false);
But it opens another window. We dont need that. We have to stay on the same window. Please suggest what can be done.

Hi,
You can create a HTML file with the request post parameters and the external URL something like this:
public java.lang.String GetRedirecturl( )
// External URL
String html = "<html><head></head><body onload=\"load()\"> " +
"<form id=\"form1\" action=\"https://www.abc.com/xyz.jsp\" method=\"POST\">" +
// Post Parameters
"<INPUT TYPE=\"HIDDEN\" NAME=\"Param1\"VALUE=\""+Param1Value+"\">"+
"<input name=\"sap-wd-resumeurl\" type=\"hidden\"/>" +
"</form> " +
"" +
"<script>" +
"function load(){" +
"var loc = window.location.search.substring(1);" +
"var queryString = loc.split(\"sap-wd-resumeurl=\");" +
"if(queryString.length > 0)" +
"{" +
"var resumeURL = queryString[1].split(\"&\");" +
"if(resumeURL.length >= 0)" +
"{" +
" document.forms['form1'].elements['sap-wd-resumeurl'].value= unescape(resumeURL[0])" +
"}" +
"}" +
"document.getElementById('form1').submit();" +
"}" +
"</script>" +
"</body> </html>";
String redirectUrl = "";
byte[] byteArrayHtmlData = null;
try {
byteArrayHtmlData = html.getBytes("UTF-8");
} catch (UnsupportedEncodingException e) {
wdComponentAPI.getMessageManager().reportException("Internal error occurred. Please try after some time",true);
IWDResource htmlResource = WDResourceFactory.createCachedResource(new ByteArrayInputStream(byteArrayHtmlData), "Redirect.html", WDWebResourceType.HTML, true);
redirectUrl = htmlResource.getUrl(WDFileDownloadBehaviour.AUTO.ordinal());
return redirectUrl;
Hope this will be helpful.

Prob. exec. print job from RFC which im calling Web Dynpro java in Portal

Hi,
Ive got a problem executing a print job from an RFC which im calling in Java web Dynpro Application in Portal. Im using an Acess Method G: for Front End Printing but Order gets stuck with the Status "Waiting" "Front end unavailable".
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance!!!

HI,
I dont think you would be able to do this. Instead, you need to get the content from RFC into WD java and print from the browser.

Call a user defined method in web dynpro from interactive forms

Hi All,
how to call a user defined method in web dynpro java, when a selecting value from drop down list which is in interactive forms by adobe
thanks.
Edited by: venkat99 on May 24, 2010 4:52 PM

Well, you can use F4 help, of course, check here: http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70ehp1/helpdata/en/48/a1900622ec062be10000000a42189d/frameset.htm
You need to select the value first and then use the submit button, which is mapped to the WD action submit (you have to set this up in WD designer!!). To use the submit button for more actions, you need to use something like a hidden field, where the value is set according to the action you want to do with your submit button. The submit sends this value back to WD, where you can switch the program code according to the value.

Import data from excel/csv file in web dynpro

Hi All,
I need to populate a WD table by first importing a excel/CSV file thru web dynpro screen and then reading thru the file.Am using FileUpload element from NW04s.
How can I read/import data from excel / csv file in web dynpro table context?
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks a lot

Hi,
Here are the basic steps needed to read data from excel spreadsheet using the Java Excel API(jExcel API).
jExcel API can read a spreadsheet from a file stored on the local file system or from some input stream, ideally the following should be the steps while reading:
Create a workbook from a file on the local file system, as illustrated in the following code fragment:
          import java.io.File;
          import java.util.Date;
          import jxl.*;
         Workbook workbook = Workbook.getWorkbook(new File("test.xls"));
On getting access to the worksheet, once can use the following code piece to access individual sheets. These are zero indexed - the first sheet being 0, the second sheet being 1, and so on. (You can also use the API to retrieve a sheet by name).
          Sheet sheet = workbook.getSheet(0);
After getting the sheet, you can retrieve the cell's contents as a string by using the convenience method getContents(). In the example code below, A1 is a text cell, B2 is numerical value and C2 is a date. The contents of these cells may be accessed as follows
Cell a1 = sheet.getCell(0,0);
Cell b2 = sheet.getCell(1,1);
Cell c2 = sheet.getCell(2,1);
String a1 = a1.getContents();
String b2 = b2.getContents();
String c2 = c2.getContents();
// perform operations on strings
However in case we need to access the cell's contents as the exact data type ie. as a numerical value or as a date, then the retrieved Cell must be cast to the correct type and the appropriate methods called. The code piece given below illustrates how JExcelApi may be used to retrieve a genuine java double and java.util.Date object from an Excel spreadsheet. For completeness the label is also cast to it's correct type. The code snippet also illustrates how to verify that cell is of the expected type - this can be useful when performing validations on the spreadsheet for presence of correct datatypes in the spreadsheet.
String a1 = null;
Double b2 = 0;
Date c2 = null;
                    Cell a1 = sheet.getCell(0,0);
                    Cell b2 = sheet.getCell(1,1);
                    Cell c2 = sheet.getCell(2,1);
                    if (a1.getType() == CellType.LABEL)
                       LabelCell lc = (LabelCell) a1;
                       stringa1 = lc.getString();
                     if (b2.getType() == CellType.NUMBER)
                       NumberCell nc = (NumberCell) b2;
                       numberb2 = nc.getValue();
                      if (c2.getType() == CellType.DATE)
                        DateCell dc = (DateCell) c2;
                        datec2 = dc.getDate();
                       // operate on dates and doubles
It is recommended to, use the close() method (as in the code piece below)   when you are done with processing all the cells.This frees up any allocated memory used when reading spreadsheets and is particularly important when reading large spreadsheets.
          // Finished - close the workbook and free up memory
          workbook.close();
The API class files are availble in the 'jxl.jar', which is available for download.

How to send Variable from a web dynpro abap application to anthor

HI all:
    I have two web dynpro abap applications .
    I want to send a Variable from a web dynpro abap application to another web dynpro abap application using post method.
    Because, now I have used append_field_url to send Variable,but this method will display the Variable in the URL.
    I do not need this result.
    I need the Variable from a web dynpro abap application to another web dynpro abap application and the Variable will not display in the URL.
    Can you give me an example?
    Thanks.

HI Nawal Kishor Mittal :
I have tried your method,but I can not get the value of variable.
My code is as follows:
The first web dynpro abap application:
DATA:BEGIN OF l_send,
     l_value TYPE string,
     END OF l_send.
l_send-l_value = '400001'.
EXPORT l_send-l_value FROM l_send TO SHARED MEMORY indx(aa) ID 'YTEST_MATNR'.
The second web dynpro abap application:
DATA:BEGIN OF m_send,
     s_value TYPE string,
     END OF m_send.
IMPORT m_send-s_value TO m_send FROM SHARED BUFFER indx(aa) ID 'YTEST_MATNR'.
DELETE FROM MEMORY ID 'YTEST_MATNR'.
Thanks.

Calling Remote-Enabled JAVA Module from Web Dynpro Java

Anyone have a clue how I can call a Remote-Enabled JAVA Module in ECC from a Web Dynpro Java app? I'm on Portal 7.0. When I try and create an Adaptive RFC model in NWDS and put in the Function Module name (CFG_API_FIND_KNOWLEDGEBASES) or its Function group, that RFC is not returned for me to import. Can I not use this method to get at this function?
(I CAN call this function module and run it from the old SAP Business Connector software. That, however, does not help me get it into my Web Dynpro app.)

If anyone stumbles upon this thread, the long and short answer is you can't call a Remote-Enabled JAVA module in SAP from Web Dynpro Java.....using Adaptive RFC.
You can, however, if you create your own session and function call directly in Java code and give up on being able to use Adaptive RFC.

Adding attachments to workflow from Web Dynpro ABAP Application program.

Hi,
workflow is supposed to start by a Web Dynpro ABAP Application.
The user can attach files to it.
A superior is supposed to review the files and either approve or reject the request.
I tried the following in Web Ddynpro ABAP:
CALL FUNCTION 'EWW_WORKFLOW_START'
EXPORTING
X_TASK = 'WS90000074'
IMPORTING
Y_WORKFLOW_ID = lv_WF_ID
TABLES
X_CONTAINER = lv_IT_CONTAINER
EXCEPTIONS
then followed by:
CALL FUNCTION 'SAP_WAPI_ATTACHMENT_ADD'
EXPORTING
WORKITEM_ID = lv_wf_id
ATT_HEADER = lv_swr_att_header
ATT_BIN = Item_FILENAMEATTACHED
DOCUMENT_OWNER = SY-UNAME
LANGUAGE = SY-LANGU
IMPORTING
ATT_ID = lv_swr_att_id
The Workflow has only one user decision step and one notification Step.
In the user decision step, there is a binding from ATTACHOBJECTS to the task.
But, in the log, you can see the attachment in the Workflow Container of the workflow instance, but you don't see it in the task (neither Inbox nor UWL)
I have checked the binding it is correct. I am getting the attachment in workflow container in '_attach_objects' element. but this attachment has to go to the user decision step, so I am binding the '_attach_objects' of workflow container to '_attach_objects' of user decision step. But the attachment was not going to user decision step.
Could you please let me know where am i doing wrong?
Thanks,
V.Nagaraju

@Ruslim Chang
Sorry to point out but the FM will return the Workitem ID only so there is no problem with the LV_WF_ID variable.
@vundralla nagaraju
Instead of making binding between attachobjects make binding between
WiGroup_ID <---- attachobjects
and then on the next step you try to make biniding in the user decision step by using WiGroup_ID.I think it should work.

Date Type UI in JSP (similar to Web Dynpro)

Hi,
Is there any way in hbj or jsps to display calendar and allow user to choose any date from that calendar?
I know that there is similar type of UI element available in Web Dynpro .. an input field having calendar displayed at it's right corner.
Thanks and regards,
Amey Mogare

Hi Amey,
Using the simple line of code in your jsp, will help to achieve the same.
<hbj:inputField id="inDatle" type="DATE" showHelp="true" value=""/>

Moving from Web Dynpro Java timesheet to Web Dynpro ABAP timesheet

Hi
We are in the process of moving from Web Dynpro Java ESS timesheet to Web Dynpro ABAP ESS timesheet. When using Web Dynpro Java ESS timesheet it is possible to enter time using a daily or weekly view.
When using the Web Dynpro version and ensuring the period type is set to weekly view for the data entry profile it is only possible to enter time on the weekly view, the tab for the daily view is no longer available.
Still using the Web Dynpro version and changing the period type to daily view I can enter time using the daily view and the weekly tab also becomes available, but the weekly tab is read only.
Do you know if it is possible to make daily and weekly timesheet entry for one data entry profile.
Thanks
Mark

Yes you can have only one view ie weekly or daily as per your CATS profile in CAC1.
but of course you can select multiple profiles
Configuration
The application configuration HRESS_AC_CATS_1 is provided by default and allows you to provide default values for the application parameters. It also allows you to specify the layout and appearance of the application.
The following application parameters are provided:
HIDE_CLOCK_TIMES_IN_WEEKLY
Hides the clock times in the weekly view.
MULTIPLE_PROFILE
Enables the selection of multiple data entry profiles from the dropdown list

Delete a file from the KM in a Web Dynpro application

Hello,
We need to delete a file from the KM in a Web Dynpro application.
We have a file name (filename.txt) and its path (/documents/Test/), how can we completely delete the file from the KM?
Thanks,
Gil

Hi venkata reddy,
You wrongly mentioned system admin instead of content admin
Go to Content administration not in the system administration
if u delete the file manually in the portal you can go with
go to Content administration -> KM Content -> go to Particular document -> just tick the check box which doc u want delete -> go to selection -> u will find delete .

I made Web dynpro ABAP application and posted it to SAP EP.
For certain business purpose, we need to call external 3rd party java object using 3rd party's java api in Web dynpro application.
Is there anybody who experienced this kind of java interface issue?
I know Web dynpro Java environment can fully support this kind of requirement. but regarding Web dynpro ABAP, I couldn't find any clue for this.
Any comment or suggestion would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

Calling a Method in Web Dynpro ABAP

Hi Experts,
I have created a class in se24 and called its methods in web dynpro by simply creating its object. It is working fine. After that i came to know that method should be called through creating a service call in WD.
What is the standard way and why?
Thanks
Ravindra.

Hello Ravindra ,
I think the better way is to create an assistance class ( Say A1) and create an attribute (Say AC1) as object of your class ( Say C1 ).
In the costructor of you assistance class A1 you can instanciate the object of C1 .
Now inside a method of assistance class you can call the method of C1 any time because AC1 is already instantiated .
MVC architecture recommends you should have separate method to aceess the data and you write your business logic in assitance class methods .
Hope this will help you .
Regards
Vivek
