Touch technology for ABAP

Hi,
As considering mobile and tablet is getting more market penetration and enterprise is more keen on adapting these technology for their employee.
Now seem like most developer are jumping ship to develop mobile apps for all kinds of businesses.
Someday, enterprise office application may go into touch technology, something like microsoft surface, or kinect.
Was wondering, will there be possible ABAP may come out with something that is touch technology enabled that could program like iOS or android platform?

you need to understand what is touch technology first. it basically means converting the mechanical touch to a screen event.. right? so thats the work of hardware.
ever heard of RFID technology?, in the RFID devices(handlheld) they do use touch screens(resistive touch). so its not abap which enable touch technology, its the touch driver which generates the logic to identify which part of screen is touched (pressed) and operates on that.

  • WebDynpro for ABAP applications for Touch Screen Clients?

    Hi folks!
    Has anybody in the WD4A community experiences in developing WebDynpro for ABAP applications for touch screen clients?
    Any hint will be welcome.
    Thanx in advance!
    Regards,

    Hi,
    sorry, but Web Dynpro ABAP does not support touch screen clients. This would mean new Unified Rendering features which are, however, not scheduled.

    I'm trying some exam but it's not user friendly. For example : Heigth of Button is not greater 1.
    How can I desing user friendly screen for touch screen at abap?
    Best regards.

    Hello,
    as far as i know the button heigth in the Screen Painter can't be changed.
    Maybe there is a way to display the dynpro bigger like 200% resolution.

  • How can we benefit from WebDynpro for ABAP over Normal ABAP

    Dear Guru's,
    Please guide me what are +Ves of WebDynpro over Normal ABAP. Once all Applications are developed how can we organize them. For Example In SD module there is sequence of Tcodes to be executed this is true for all modules . Is there any concept involved in this new technology.
    For What purpose we can suggest someone to implement in an Organization.
    Many Thanks in Advance.
    Regards
    Ram

    Hi Ram,
    Here Are some comparisions I made w.r.t Webdynpro for ABAP (also some benifits over Java):
    1     "Pros:it will be easier to move your development project through the system landscape if both the UI and business logic are in the same development environment.(Update: This is is less of a concern now that CTS+ lets you bundle your WD Java UI developement with ABAP development objects into a single transport, with SPS13. )
    2     tons of custom ABAP business logic is easier to access via WD for ABAP
    3     WD for ABAP has a code wizard, so easy to build
    4     SAP List Viewer and ALV handled better
    5      The biggest thing is the NWDI. Most of the SAP customer have ABAP stack, but not everyone has the Java stack. To develop WD Java you need to set up the NWDI envrionment, like SLD, CMS, CBS, DTR, etc. which is a huge effort if you don't have them in place. While for WD ABAP, the environemnt is normally there as given for most of customers if they have the right version.
    6     If your business is in SAP system, I would prefer WD ABAP. There are many WD components available in WD ABAP like select-option, Alv table, F4-help which are not available in WD Java. Beside in WD ABAP you can deal the context node in form of internal table which is much more performant than dealing with the contextelement which is the case for WD Java.

  • Other technologies for Process Composer applications

    Hi,
    as I found out, the most appropriate technologies applications built with Process Composer are WebDynpro for Java and enterprise service invocation. I have to queations regarding other technologies:
    1. Is it possible to use other UI technologies like WebDynpro for ABAP, Visual Composer or Adobe Forms?
    2. Is it possible to make direct function calls like RFCs instead of indirect enterprise service calls?
    Thanks for your help
    Felix

    Hi Felix,
    Regarding your questions, below are the answers:
    1. Is it possible to use other UI technologies like WebDynpro for ABAP, Visual Composer or Adobe Forms?
    No, with current version (7.1.1) only Adobe Forms (online scenario) from above are supported. Some Others will be supported in 7.2
    2. Is it possible to make direct function calls like RFCs instead of indirect enterprise service calls?
    No, not possible to make direct RFC calls. You need to use Services for this.
    Hope this helps!!

  • There should be seperate forum for ABAP HR

    Hello folks,
    I have recently joined SDN community. What I feel is that there should be different forum for ABAP HR. If I have to post a question or if I have to look what other members have asked in concern with ABAP HR then it is difficult to search in either ABAP or HCM forums.
    Please suggest.

    >technical ABAP issues could go to a new ABAP HR sub-forum
    @Thomas - with much of the new HCM technology being delivered in WDA and associated techs (POWL, etc) many of the issues are cross application. Having another segregation would mean these questions getting lost or even more work for moderators to move posts across forums.
    Tagging and being able to view all threads with a given tag (akin to the Google GMail labels for those needing a "real" example ) is the way to resolve these issues, but until we have a revolution in how SCN is organised, I'd be opposed to any further fragmentation. Perhaps I should set up an RSS reader and then going through multiple forums wouldn't be as tiresome, but I haven't got to that point, and I doubt most users have.
    Just my thoughts!
    Cheers,

  • Additional instalation for ABAP Webdynpro

    Dear Collegues, I'm on the way to decide which technology should I choose for company developing web application. I was wondering about PDK for .NET as the company has invested a lot in .NET technology so far. But I realized that it is possible to use Web Dynpro ABAP, as far as I know I have ECC 6.0 version of SAP on WAS 7.0 just installed, but as far as I know I can access Webdynpro for ABAP on SE80 level, but when I go there I do not see any possiblity to create Webdynpro components. Could you please guide me what should be additionally installed within ABAP Workbench enviroment. I know that for Webdynpro for Java I need Webdynpro Developer Studio (I was programing some time ago in it) but what about Webdynpro ABAP? Do I need any additional isntallation? Do I need any additional licence? Or maybe some components should be attached in installation of SAP Netweaver 2004s?

    Web Dynpro ABAP  
    https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/db22242d-0701-0010-28a2-aeaa1fefd706
    Hope that the following also helps you.
    Web Dynpro for ABAP (WD4A, WDA) 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 and the required
    data remains intact so that you can access it at any time throughout 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
    Web Dynpro Architecture
    Definition
    Web Dynpro is the SAP NetWeaver programming model for user interfaces (UIs).
    The Web Dynpro model is based on the Model View Controller paradigm, and has the
    following features that build on the classic dynpro model:
    Clear separation of business logic and display logic
    Uniform metamodel for all types of user interfaces
    Execution on a number of client platforms.
    Extensive platform independence of interfaces
    Structure
    Metamodel Concept
    Web Dynpro provides support for developing Web representation of a business application.
    You use specific tools to describe the properties of a Web Dynpro application in the form of
    Web Dynpro metadata. The necessary source code is then generated automatically and
    executed at runtime. In addition to the events offered by the framework, you can also define
    your own events for a Web Dynpro application. However, the event handling must always be
    programmed in separate source code areas which are executed automatically when the event
    is triggered at runtime.
    In Web Dynpro, each user interface is always made up of the same basic elements. These
    elements of the metamodel can be statically declared using Web Dynpro tools.
    It is also possible to implement elements of the metamodel at runtime and to change them or
    reintegrate them at runtime. Using these implementations, you can make any changes or
    enhancements to a user interface that has been created by declarative methods by
    generating new interface structures at runtime.
    This means that you can combine declarative processes and the implementation of source
    code.
    Graphical Development Tools
    To support this declarative concept, both the SAP NetWeaver Developer Studio and the
    ABAP Workbench contain a range of Web Dynpro tools. You can therefore generate a large
    proportion of a Web Dynpro application using the tools provided, without having to create your
    own source code. This applies to the following parts of the application:
    Data flow between the front end and back end
    Layout of the user interface
    Properties of user interface elements
    The Web Dynpro tools enable you to create source text areas manually within generated
    source texts. These areas are not changed if the source code is regenerated.
    Separation of Business and Application Logic
    Using Web Dynpro enables a clear separation of business logic and display logic. A Web
    Dynpro application runs on the front end and has local or remote access to the back end
    system via a service. This means that the display logic is contained in the Web Dynpro
    application, while the business logic and the persistence of the business objects run in the
    back end system. The following options are currently available for connecting Web Dynpro
    applications and the back-end system:
    An interface generated using adaptive RFC, through which BAPIs of an SAP system
    can be called
    An interface for calling Web services
    A self-generated interface
    The source code required for connecting the Web Dynpro application can be generated
    from a UML definition of the Web Dynpro interface. A UML definition can be imported
    into the Web Dynpro tools as an XML file.
    Conversion of the Model-View-Controller
    Conversion of the Model-View-Controller Programming Model
    Every Web Dynpro application is structured according to the Model View Controller
    programming model:
    The model forms the interface to the back end system and thus enables the
    Web Dynpro application access to data.
    The view is responsible for the representation of the data in the browser.
    The controller lies between the view and the model. The controller formats
    the model data to be displayed in the view, processes the user entries made by the
    user, and returns them to the model.

  • Comparison between WebDynpro for ABAP vs. WebDynpro for Java ??

    Hi,
       Can someone tell me when should we go for WebDynpro for ABAP and when WebDynpro for Java. Is there any link where SAP recommends the one for the other.
    Thanks in advance
    Regards
    Mukesh

    Hi Mukesh,
    Both are having its own strengths!! )
    I think it all depends on your project requirement and the availabel resources.
    If the developer is good in OOPs ABAP then he must go for Web Dynpro ABAP. But if anyone is good in JAVA then that person should go for Web Dynpro JAVA.
    *In Short almost all Features supported in webdynpro ABAP are also Possible in webdynpro Java.
    1] Webdynpro Java
    Supports,
    webservice
    RFC Models
    Accessing Portal information in Java
    Easy sending E-mail
    Strictly follows MVC architecture which seperate Business logic and Process flow.
    Webdynpro Java is webbased programming model to develop SAP Applications.
    Easy to learn
    Easy to integrate in Enter prise portals.
    Dynanamic Programming
    *Easy access to R/3 Via RFC technology (Models)
    2] Web Dynpro ABAP
    As the name suggests Web Dynpro for ABAP uses exactly the same meta model as its cousin Web Dynpro for Java. A Web Dynpro component, a Web Dynpro view, a Web Dynpro model, a Web Dynpro controller have the same semantics both for ABAP and Java. The main difference is the designtime environment, the development infrastructure and the runtime environment.
    The designtime environment is properly embedded in the ABAP Workbench where Web Dynpro artifacts are simply a new category like BSP applications or classical dynpro based applications before. Also no surprises regarding the development infrastructure. The correction and transport system keeps track on all changes that are done, versions them and helps to propagate the Web Dynpro application from development to production like you would do with ordinary BSP or dynpro-based applications.
    Last not least the execution platform is the ABAP server that produces application content ready to be integrated in the NetWeaver Portal seamlessly. Features like portal eventing can be used between applications written in ABAP or applications developed with Java.
    Hope this helps and solve your Problem
    Cheers,
    Darshna.

  • Floor Plan Manager Technique in Web Dynpro for ABAP

    Hi Experts,
    Road map technique and Floor Plan Manager Technique, both are same or different.
    I need to develop a web dynpro application based on Floor Plan Manager Technique. can I develop this application in WebDynpro for ABAP. If so please help me how to use Floor Plan Manager Technique in Web Dynpro for ABAP.
    I don't have knowledge in java, so i cann't develop this application in web dypro for java.
    Please help me.
    Thanks & Regards
    Sridhar

    >Road map technique and Floor Plan Manager Technique, both are same or different.
    They are different. The FloorPlan Manager is a tool for constructing WD applications with a similar layout and user interface.  There are two different floor plans currently - the OIF - Object Instance Floorplan and the GAF - Guided Activity Floorplan.  The OIF is for the editing of a single business object. It allows for things like the nesting of header and item details.  The GAF, on the other hand, uses a road map to walk you through an activity - much like a Guided Procedure.  The FloorPlan Manager is very powerful because it can be configured using component and application configuration - allowing you to plug in different UI Building Blocks (UIBB) as Web Dynpro Components or Views.  You can change the roadmap, for instance, adding a new step by just chaning this configuration and not having to touch the code.  Consistency between applications is also a major stregth of the FloorPlan Manager. 
    The Road Map is just a UI element in WD.  It can be used to create your own custom applications.
    >can I develop this application in WebDynpro for ABAP
    Sure.  The Floorplan manager has been available for WDA since SPS13.  Have a look at the packages APB_FPM_DEMO and ABP_FPM_TEST for examples of how to build components designed for the FloorPlan Manager.
    Admittedly there aren't a whole lot of documents available on the subject yet. Some eLearning is being worked on now.  There are going to be some workshops at TechEd on the subject:
    https://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/Community/BringitallTogetherwithFPM%28FloorplanManager%29forWebDynpro+ABAP
    The best thing to do right now is to study the demo applications SAP provides.

  • What is used for WebDynpro for ABAP?

    hi all friends,,
    what is used for WebDynpro for ABAP?
    Thanks,
    S.Suresh.

    Hi
    Web Dynpro for ABAP - Getting Started
    Web Dynpro for ABAP is SAP’s new standard UI technology for developing user interfaces in the ABAP environment. In the long term Web Dynpro for ABAP will be the successor of the traditional screen (“Dynpro”) based user interface technology which is based on the SAP GUI. Available with NetWeaver 7.0 (2004s) Web Dynpro for ABAP provides the same declarative UI development paradigm as Web Dynpro for Java directly out of the NetWeaver ABAP Application Server. Web Dynpro for ABAP allows the development of user interfaces directly within the ABAP Workbench (SE80) and the Web Dynpro runtime environment is a central part of the ABAP server and can be used in any SAP solution based on NetWeaver 7.0 (2004s) without the need of an additional server installation.
    Web Dynpro for ABAP allows the development of user interfaces in a declarative way by providing a mighty framework which abstracts the rendering technology from the core UI definition tasks. The Web Dynpro developer declares the layout and behavior of the UI without caring about HTML, JavaScript, browser specifics or the HTTP protocol. Instead the focus lies on designing graphically Web Dynpro components based on the Model View Controller model, which enforces a clear separation between the UI layer and the underlying business logic.
    This declarative Web Dynpro programming model enforces the developer to focus on the tasks of
    Designing the layout of the visible views (where should the table be placed, do I need tabs, how should the button look?)
    Declaring the flow and behavior of the application (flow between views, which event is triggered by which button click, etc)
    Defining the data binding (which internal table is displayed in a specific table, etc)
    Implementing the event handlers and controller methods.
    Without making any assumption about the used rendering technology, like which browser should be supported or if the Web Dynpro application will be later displayed in a web browser via HTML at all or in another kind of client with completely different rendering capabilities.
    The Web Dynpro Frameworks provides all important UI features directly out of the box:
    All elements (tables, buttons, trees, dropdown list boxes, etc) necessary for state of the art user interfaces are provided by the Web Dynpro Framework in the form of predefined UI element libraries.
    Complex features and behavior of UI elements.
    Internationalization of the UI. All visible strings in a Web Dynpro ABAP UI are handled by the translation system and are translated in the same translation environment like other ABAP language dependent resources. All texts are displayed automatically at runtime, dependent of the user’s credentials.
    Accessibility features are directly built into the framework and UI elements.
    A unified rendering engine generates at runtime the data which is sent to the specific client application, which is not limited to browsers but includes the NetWeaver Business Client.
    All this is available in the established environment of the ABAP application server and well known capabilities like the transportation and change management system, security environment, test and performance analysis tools or remote debugging can be used like in common ABAP development.

  • Alternative for web dynpro for abap

    Ok,
    After a previous question we found out that if we want to use web dynpro for abap, we should upgrade to NW2004S.
    Now, are there alternatives for web dynpro for abap?
    currently (WAS 6.20 - R/3 4.7)
    Thanks in advance,
    Tom

    Hi Tom.
    On 6.20 you can use BSP. But this is not a real alternative to WD4A when lookin at the comfortable development. But a alternative as web application technology.
