Value-Request/Drop-Down like ABAP - F4

Hello all,
I want to implement some transactions within WAS Java. Many of my input-fields should only allow input of certain values. Of course I can define these input values within Java Dictionary. But for almost all of them there exists a customizing table within an SAP R/3 ABAP System. Is there now way to link these customizing tables for a value request function (in the Java Application) to the Java Dictionary fields?
Thanks for Help!
Wolfgang Ritter

Hi Wolfgang,
I suggest you take a look at the OVS (Object Value Selector) example/tutorial available for web dynpro...you can do similar things with it that you can do in F4...combine OVS with the BAPI: BAPI_HELPVALUES_GET and you should be able to get very similar behavior.
Cheers,
Jeff

How to get the values of drop downs, which are gonna create at run time.

As per my design requirement, I have to create drop downs in an ADF display table.
The no# of rows of the table are gonna decide the no# of the drop downs. User can select the values from drop downs. My issue is, how can I capture the selected values of those drop downs as those are gonna created run time.

Hi
ohh ,ok ,then as u said that u r storing twenty values ,thats y i aksed earlier ,are these form values part of tbale ,or as u said 20 values are there ,for these u r creating 20 form values ???.
My suggestion would be ,u do four calculation and put all your results in a hashmap ,and keep this hash map in to sesion ,using the following method
pageContext.putTransactionTransientValue("HashMapName",myHashMap);
and inside the PFR method when u want to display these values ,u can loop through your hashmap and can display these values.
like this
HasMap hm=pageContext.getTransactionTransientValue("HashMapName");
thanx

How to set a default value in a Value Help Drop Down List

Hi,
I used an age Range field in my adobe form, the control is a Value Help Drop Down List. i am populating the drop down using following code.
IWDAttributeInfo ageInfo = wdContext.nodePersonalData().getNodeInfo().getAttribute("CTAgeRange");
     ISimpleTypeModifiable ageType = ageInfo.getModifiableSimpleType();
     IModifiableSimpleValueSet ageValueSet = ageType.getSVServices().getModifiableSimpleValueSet();
     ageValueSet.put("1","21-29");
     ageValueSet.put("2","30-34");
     ageValueSet.put("3","35 or Above");
My requirement is to set a default value e.g. 30-34 in the age range field.
I want to give input to iform from my Implementation code only.
Please help.
Thanks in advance

hi Ranjan,
that means you have to set at design time,
to set default drop down value you will have to set the value for particular attribute (which is linked to the dropdown element) in the context
like
wdContext.currentContext<nodeName>Element.set<FieldName>(<default value>)
This generally done in Initialization method of the controller.

Dashboard prompt issue (Restricting Values in drop down) ????

Hi Friends,
In my report I have "days to start" column which list almost 10,000 values ranging from -1000 to 5000.
I need to create a prompt for this report on "Days to Start" column.
When I create a prompt on Days to start with Operator "Greater than" and Control "Drop Down List" it shows me all the values in Drop down.
I need only specific Values like 30, 60, 90, 180 which might not be in the "days to start" column.
If I select "SQL Result" what should be the SQL for that??
Is there any other way to solve this problem
Aprreciate your help on this
Thanks

You could make a table VALUES with 1 column and fill it with values like 30,60,90....then in sql you'd write SELECT * FROM VALUES....as simple as that
(of course, it'd have to be in RPD, and you'd need to expose it in Presentation layer)
Edited by: wildmight on Feb 19, 2009 8:18 AM
Also, you could try this - it works for me - but it could be slower and you might want to figure out how to round it - also, it has to be a number or cast to number format
SELECT Table."Column"/30 saw_0 FROM "Subj Area" ORDER BY saw_0

How to capture selected value from drop down by index

Dear friends,
i want to capture the value of select value from drop down by index, for eg if select air france, how to capture , could any one please let me know
Thanks
Vijaya

Hi Vijaya,
You can get the value of selected from drop down as below
Check out the event handler method attached to Onselect event of the ui element drop down by index , if no event is associated, then create an event and attach to the drop down list
Now you will be having the CONTEXT_ELEMENT in the WDEVENT parameter
               data lo_element type ref to if_wd_context_element.
               lo_element = wdevent->get_context_element( name = 'CONTEXT_ELEMENT').
Now, you can get the static attribute value of selected drop down value & let us say your drop down list values are populated from context node 'ND_DRP_DOWN'
               data ls_data type wd_this->element_nd_drp_down.
                         lo_element->get_static_attributes(
                                   importing
                                   static_attributes = ls_data ).
Hope this helps you.

Populating values to drop down list in Adobe Forms

Hi,
We have added a drop down list in our adobe form. Our requirement is Payment Terms should be displayed in this drop down list. We tried by adding values to drop down list in object palette window by using '+' sign. But now we want to display values dynamically from table T052U. We need to bring two fields ZTERM and TEXT1. We don't want to use database connection, just from a table as an importing parameter it should be appended to this list.
Atpresent, we don't want to use webdynpro or java for getting values.
Please provide suitable answers.

Using getElementById() to get values from drop down list

Hi, I am using Netbeans to write this program. I have this .java page that gets the url of the HtmlPage from the .properties page. And when this page is opened in the browser, there are drop down lists that have values I want to get from the user when he/she has selected, and save it to a database. I'm actually using mozilla firefox to open this page, and using firebug to inspect the drop down list element.
I know getElementById is a javascript code, however, my friend told me to use it in the .java page. This is how part of my code looks like. What I'm not sure is how to implement getElementById() and where.
HtmlPage pageMain =EBPage;
WebRequest postRequestSettings = new WebRequest(
new URL(getProperties("trustAdmin")), HttpMethod.POST);
*// Set the request parameters*
postRequestSettings.setRequestParameters(new ArrayList());
postRequestSettings.getRequestParameters().add(new NameValuePair("component", "edit"));
postRequestSettings.getRequestParameters().add(new NameValuePair("formids", "unixTime,instance,time,description,message"));
postRequestSettings.getRequestParameters().add(new NameValuePair("page", "Status"));
postRequestSettings.getRequestParameters().add(new NameValuePair("service", "direct"));
postRequestSettings.getRequestParameters().add(new NameValuePair("session", "T"));
postRequestSettings.getRequestParameters().add(new NameValuePair("submitmode", "submit"));
postRequestSettings.getRequestParameters().add(new NameValuePair("submitname", ""));
*// Insert instance of message here*
postRequestSettings.getRequestParameters().add(new NameValuePair("instance", instance));
*// Insert content of message here*
postRequestSettings.getRequestParameters().add(new NameValuePair("message", message));
*// Insert description of message here*
postRequestSettings.getRequestParameters().add(new NameValuePair("description", description));
*// Insert time of message here*
postRequestSettings.getRequestParameters().add(new NameValuePair("time", time));
*// Convert time to unix seconds*
postRequestSettings.getRequestParameters().add(new NameValuePair("unixTime", String.valueOf(System.currentTimeMillis() / 1000)));
HtmlPage newPage1 = pageMain.getWebClient().getPage(postRequestSettings);
WebRequest requestSettings = new WebRequest(
new URL("http://www.google.com"), HttpMethod.GET);
requestSettings.setRequestParameters(new ArrayList());
requestSettings.getRequestParameters().add(new NameValuePair("page", "Preview"));
requestSettings.getRequestParameters().add(new NameValuePair("service", "page"));
newPage1 = newPage1.getWebClient().getPage(requestSettings);
And I'm told to insert page.getElementById() in the place shown below:
HtmlPage page = null;
page.getElementById()_
*try {*
*// Login proxy*
page = (HtmlPage) jsonBrowser.getPage(getProperties("jsonBrowser"));
String proxyUrl = page.getForms().get(0).getAttribute("action");
System.out.println("Proxy Url" + proxyUrl);
WebRequest requestSettings = new WebRequest(
new URL(proxyUrl), HttpMethod.POST);
requestSettings.setRequestParameters(new ArrayList());
requestSettings.getRequestParameters().add(new NameValuePair("PROXY_SG_PASSWORD", password));
requestSettings.getRequestParameters().add(new NameValuePair("PROXY_SG_PRIVATE_CHALLENGE_STATE", ""));
requestSettings.getRequestParameters().add(new NameValuePair("PROXY_SG_REQUEST_ID", ""));
requestSettings.getRequestParameters().add(new NameValuePair("PROXY_SG_USERNAME", userID));
*// Get the page*
page = page.getWebClient().getPage(requestSettings);
Logger.getLogger(postTrustMessage.class.getName()).log(Level.INFO, "===================================Login in Trust");
Logger.getLogger(postTrustMessage.class.getName()).log(Level.INFO, page.getWebResponse().getContentAsString());
*} catch (IOException ex) {*
Logger.getLogger(postTrustMessage.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
*} catch (FailingHttpStatusCodeException ex) {*
Logger.getLogger(postTrustMessage.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
return page;
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Webdynpro " How to add values in Drop down list By Key"

Hi experts ,
i want to create a drop down list by key, i don't know how to assign values to it ( i.e. add list entries ) . Please help me on this ..
With regards ,
James..
Valuable answers will be rewarded ....

Hi,
To fix values to the drop down key at runtime in the webdynpro application you can use the following code:
DATA:
lr_node_flightinfo TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_node,
lr_nodeinfo_flightinfo TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_node_info,
l_scarr type scarr,
lt_value_set TYPE TABLE OF wdr_context_attr_value,
lw_value_set like line of lt_value_set.
get nodeinfo of node flightinfo
lr_node_flightinfo = wd_context->get_child_node( name = 'FLIGHTINFO' ).
lr_nodeinfo_flightinfo = lr_node_flightinfo->get_node_info( ).
get value set (VALUE = CARRID , TEXT = CARRNAME)
select carrid carrname from scarr into table lt_value_set.
clear lw_value_set.
lw_value_set-value = 'AI'.
lw_value_set-text = 'Air India'.
append lw_value_set to lt_value_set.
sort the value set by the describing TEXT
SORT lt_value_set BY text.
set value to context attribute
lr_nodeinfo_flightinfo->set_attribute_value_set(
name = 'CARRID' value_set = lt_value_set ).
Here CARRID is a drop down by key field on the screen.
in The context it is an attribute in the node FLIGHTINFO.
Please give Reward Points if this piece of code helps

Manish

Create a value node similar to model node. In value node you can add element at the index wherever you want to:
wdContext.node<nodename>().addElement(<index>,<element>);

How to populate multiple text boxes by selecting a value from drop down

I apologize in advance if this is redundant, but I have searched this forum relentlessly to no avail. I have a form connected to an MS Access database. The database is linked to another datadase on an Advantage server. This is dynamic data that has an ODBC driver allowing to link access tables to the Advantage data. Macros on access updates the table being used on this form. The livecycle form connects to the access data via a DSN on a machine that uses acrobat (not reader). This is a physician office, this form should expedite ordering radiology tests on patients. The plan is to use a drop down to select a chart number that will trigger several text boxes to populate dynamically with the corresponding demographic values like name, age, insurance etc.
Using a data drop down I am able to select the chart number. When I used the example from the office supplies database, so that a button will trigger the event with the following code:
if (Len(Ltrim(Rtrim(SelectField.rawValue))) > 0) then
$sourceSet.DataConnection.#command.query.commandType = "text"
$sourceSet.DataConnection.#command.query.select.nodes.
item(0).value = Concat("Select * from OfficeSupplies Where ID = ", Ltrim(Rtrim(SelectField.rawValue)) ,"")
I recieve a syntax error, despite adjusting quotation since I am using text rather than numeric fields.
My question is the following:
Is there a simple javascript that I can use to populate these text boxes (which may be read only but would be better if it allows user input)? Or does anyone recommend an alternative method? I would be happy with a link that solves this problem if someone can provide. I am somewhat familiar with js but open to any suggesstion.
Thanks
PS this form could also be linked to a Sequel database if that offers an advantage.

The View object API has a setQurery() method that you can use to set the query as needed before executing it via executeQuery(). You can do this in a custom Application Module method exposed to its client interface and bound to the binding layer. You can call this method from your backing bean on a value change listener.
