Visual Composer vs WebDynpro...

Hi,
What is better to create GUI and connecting to R3 and BW ?

Hi David,
This is the same question: VC or WD.
So you know answer now
VC for simple, WD for complicated applications.

Will visual composer replace webdynpro

Hi All ,
I am new to portal , i have one basic question , can we do all our development using visual composer .. when do we need to use webdynpro ??

Hi,
Visual Composer is a tool to create applications and has nothing to do with the used GUI concept. As I heard resp. know from our current rampup project with CE there is in VC CE a new concept, which creates a XGL (Executable Graphical User Interface Language) file. This is the base for the application, that means this XGL is used for different GUI concepts resp. comipler, so the new VC CE will support webdynpro, flash/flex and so on. In the new release there are also new improvement in the tool, so I think the new VC CE release bring new potentials for the development. But I also think that VC is limited and has not the capabilities of the NetWeaver Developer Studio. I think it's not the question if VC will replace Webdynpro, you must ask yourself which is the best tool for your development.
So far my point of view. I hope it helps.

WebDynpro runtime mode in Visual Composer

We are unable to create and deploy Visual Composer projects with WebDynpro runtime mode due to we unable to see any datasource of systems in "Find Data Service" area.
In the same time when we use Flex runtime mode BAPIs in "Find Data Service" apears.

Sorry, I mean WebDynpro runtime in Visual Composer
I've found the solution.
WebDynpro only supports Webservices as datasource.
See also note 950492
RFCs
However, if you uncheck mask unsupported features under Tools -> Options, and then deploy, BAPIs will also work to a certain extent.

Hi,
Check the "Compose" menu, you have plenty of components, operators, ... one being the HTML control component.
Also, have a look at the documentation here :

Eventing in Visual Composer 7.1 Enhancement Package 1

We are running Enhancment Package 1 on 7.1 and the release note says that client side event is supported. However I build 2 iViews one with Data Entry text iput and and a signal out and the the sencond one with a signal in and a text field. I cannot get what I type in to the first iView to pass to the second. Is there a simple example that illustrates that eventing is working in this release.

I used the non WEB Dynpro event tested with the following results.
For an iView that I had build with Visual Composer 7.0 and converted using the CE 7.1.1 converter tool I now see the following. In this case the evnt had the prefix urn: on it
10:20:12 : urn:com.osisoft.pct.RtPM, AdhocTags, %3CParamsversion%3D%223%22%3E%3CRowParamname%3D%22%5C%5Cgsrtwebparts%5Ccdt158%22%2F%3E%3C%2FParams%3E, undefined
This same iView on Visual Composer 7.0 delivered the following message using the tool in EP 7.0
10:52:46 : urn:com.osisoft.pct.RtPM, AdhocTags, <Params><param name="Paramname" value="%5C%5Cgsrtwebparts%5Ccdt158"/></Params>, undefined
For an iView that I created new with Visual Composer 7.1.1 and tried to use the same tool the tool did not catch the event and nothing was displayed in the log when the event name had urn: on it.
I rebuilt and removed the urn: and now the tool picked up the event with the following log.
11:12:29 : urn:com.osisoft.pct.RtPM, AdhocTags, %3CParamsversion%3D%223%22%3E%3CRowParamname%3D%22%5C%5Cgsrtwebparts%5Ccdt158%22%2F%3E%3C%2FParams%3E, undefined
The XML has changed and the use of urn: is inconsistent between versions.
Thanks for pointing me to this tool.
The Web Dynpro version you suggest did not show anything so that is why I tried the non-WebDynpro.

Visual Composer 7.0 and LoadRunner VueGen

Has anyone been able to make Visual Composer 7.0 work with Vuegen (v8.1 FP3)? Running on NW04s SPS10 J2EE and Portal. The model is rather simple it executes an ABAP BAPI and returns Exchange rate data. Works great in the browser with no issue.
VueGen receives the data (seen in the playback), but then has a fatal issue, with message = Fatal Communications error, cannot retrieve the data. The https is definitely working Ethereal proves that. VueGen always works a little differently than the IE6 browser based on Ethereal (that's a mystery).
Anyway, I am guessing that the Web-HTML and Web-SAP Protocols simply cannot handle the Flash bytecode that is streamed back to the Vuegen process. It must be trying to do something with it, and failing.
Any ideas or success stories with Visual Composer 7 / Flash (not WebDynPro), and Vuegen would be greatly appreciated? And if you are about to try it , good luck.

Hi Frank,
From what I understand you are talking about recording Flex applications and not VC design time, right?
If so, I do remember having some problem with VUGen. I think that what helped me was using the option of using the old recording engine. This can be set in VUGen-> Recording Options->Advances->Recording Engine.
Also, I don't think you need the SAP-WEB, just use the Regular Web-HTTP.
After you record should see web_custom_request going to "com.sap.visualcomposer.vcbroker". I would put some web_reg_find before these requests and supply some expected returned data to search for.

Hi Deepa,
I'm assuming you would like to embed a map into your application.
In that case, you need to connect your data service (the one that holds the addresses you wish to present using the map) to an HTML view and map the data as follows:
="http://www.map-generator.net/map.php?name=spot&address="&@Address&"&city="&@City&"width=500&height=400&maptype=map&zoom=14"
Where @Address is the field in your service which holds the address, e.g: 10 market st
and the @City is the field in your service that hods the city, e.g: San Francisco
Hope this helps

and my question is still up in the air .

System is not appearing in Visual composer!!

Hi all,
i have created a system on my portal to connect the R/3 backend, system is working fine but when i access visual composer by following way :
http://ep62:50100/VC
and clicks on find data, i am unable to find the system created by me, does anyone know why this is happening?? Is anything wrong with my VC settings?

HI Ameya
In VC storyboard go to Tools>options>complier>In the Runtime tab
1) Select the Flash option and click the find data and Now check whether your getting the system
2) If you face the problem again check the webdynpro in Runtime tab in tools option
Hope this helps,

Tree in Visual Composer WebView

Hi All,
Is it possible to create a tree in VC Webview? I know this can be done in VC in NWDS. However, I believe this is not possible in the webview since I have not seen any integration with webdynpro components in webview. I am forced to use webview since I have to work on some BI data sources.
Thanks and regards,
Ritesh

Hi Kirun,
Thanks for your reply.
I am using the Webview of Visual composer and not using the integrated feature of VC in NWDS. I am using the webview since some of the BI data sources that I am using is available only in webview and not in the NWDS integrated VC.
In Webview, I do not see any feature wherein I can build a tree. Can you please help?
Thanks and regards,
Ritesh

Integrating Adobe Flex in Visual Composer

Hi,
I want to display a list in a tree structure and based on what was chosen on the structure, a detailed information of the item is displayed in a separate window. If you can imagine: left hand side is the tree structure and on the right is the detailed information.
I'm going to use Visual Composer to show the detail information and I did some research and it seems there's no way to set up so that a tree structure is shown if I use Visual Composer. So, now I'm thinking of using Adobe Flex for doing that.
My problem is now understanding how I can incorporate Adobe Flex during the design in Visual Composer and use eventing to pass on the information on what the user chose to the BAPI that will show the detailed information. I also found out that the Flex Server should be configured in the Visual Composer. Can anyone advice?
Also, does anyone know if modeling tree structure in Visual Composer is possible?
Thanks in advance.

Hello,
You can do this by first embedding Flex into a Web Dynpro application and then consuming this WebDynpro application in a VC model.
Here are some resources:
1. Embedding a Flash island in a WD application:
[The specified item was not found.|The specified item was not found.]
2. Consuming a WebDynpro component in a VC model:
