Web Dynpro ABAP: Documentation and help link

Hi,
I'm in the process of creating a Web Dynpro ABAP application and was wondering whether you can maintain Documentation for the application, as you would a standard ABAP report? I see the Documentation option in the Goto menu of the workbench, but it is inactive.
Also, i notice you can maintain a 'Help Link' for the application. Does anyone have any information on this as I can't find anything on the SAP Help website.
Thanks,
Nick

Hi Nick,
here's the link to the corresponding documentation:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/54/bad1d244b2754bac09ae1558c15984/frameset.htm
If you choose the Change/Edit button at the right side of the input field, you can navigate to the info object to which you want to set the link in the Knowledge Warehouse.
Of course, you need an info object in the correct context in the KW for this as well as a correctly maintained RFC destination to the Knowledge Warehouse system.
Regards, Heidi

Web Dynpro ABAP, Crystal and ACF

Hi fellow developers,
I am attempting to get an Web Dynpro ABAP application working with an embedded Crystal report.
We are on ECC6, release 702. So far I am just using the stock standard application provided by SAP: WD_ACF_TEST_CRYSTAL.
Unfortunately I get the following errors:
Techincal info:CoCreateInstance error with guid: 2F848BE4-8329-4C09-8613-FC9DFF55C10F
Messagetextid:352 Messageclass info:Integrated control cannot be started
I am using a local installation of the Netweaver Business Client and I have installed Crystal Reports Viewer 2008 locally on my machine.
I have tried WD_TEST_APPL_ACFEXECUTE and after saving the certificate, it works.
I think the problem lies with the Active Controls White List in SPRO.
Thank you in advance,
Jason Lante

Nevermind, I found the solution.
It appears that you need to install the Crystal Reports ALV Adapter (xSAPCRVAdpt.exe) for this to work.
Refer to note: 1353044.

Attachement Details (GOS) in Web Dynpro (ABAP)

I posted this question in the Web Dynpro ABAP forum and got no response, so I'm moving it here:
We are developing a Web Dynpro application to display PO attachment details (PDF file etc).
In the corresponding R3 application, we use FMs ARCHIVE_GET_CONNECTIONS and ARCHIV_DISPLAY_LIST_2. They work perfectly.
The Web Dynpro application uses both FMs but one of them returns an error "Screen output without connection to user". This is returned from FM K_KKB_LIST_DISPLAY which is trying to popup a screen.
So we would like to know if we are going about this correctly or if we should be using different FMs.
Thanks for any insight you can provide.

Have you checked the fm ALINK_DOCUMENTS_DISPLAY
This is program documentation found in the initial source of function module
* Description:

Problems creating new Web Dynpro ABAP application

All,
I am following this tutorial to create my first Web Dynpro ABAP application
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70ehp1/helpdata/en/fc/501b42b5815133e10000000a155106/frameset.htm
In this tutorial I was asked to create a component as Local object.
But after giving the name of the component, I get an alert saying
"Object can only be created in SAP Package"
When I confirm this, I was shown a "Create Object Directory entry" dialog box which asks for attributes like Package.
And this box has Local Object button, when clicked I get the message "Test Objects cannot be created in foreign namespaces".
I found some other article through Google
http://www.octavia.de/fileadmin/octavia_files/content_bilder/Hauptnavigation/SAP_NetWeaver/WebDynpro/Web_Dynpro_Part_I.pdf
According to this, I tried to give $TMP as Package. But still have the same error
"Test Objects cannot be created in foreign namespaces"
Where am I and what should I do to create a new project?
Thanks.

Thanks Abinav.
My problem is with naming convention only. Component name starting with Z solved my problem.

Sub header in a salv grid in web dynpro abap

Hi All,
How to create sub header in a salv grid in web dynpro abap?
Please help in this.
Header
Subheader1
Subheader2
Then after this columns will starts.

I don't believe that is possible with the ALV directly:
[http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/EN/86/641b88c9034eebacb26ba7fbb17981/frameset.htm|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/EN/86/641b88c9034eebacb26ba7fbb17981/frameset.htm]
The closest you could probably get is to put your ALV within a Tray or Group and put your main header in the the Tray or Group caption. Either that or just put a textview element above the ALV and set the design of the textview to one of the header values (depending upon the size you want).

No switch to HTTPS occurred in Web Dynpro ABAP application

We are building a Web Dynpro ABAP application and when I logon I get:
No switch to HTTPS occurred, so it is not secure to send a password
I want to suppress this message but I can only find a parameter that works for BSP applications (You can suppress the message using the property BspDontShowHttpsWarning. Goto SICF and locate your service, open node and choose tab error pages. At redirect URL add '&bspdontshowhttpswarning=X').
However, for Web dynpro this parameter does not work. Does somebody know if there is a parameter available for web dynpro ABAP applications to suppress this message?
kind regards
Angelique Heutinck

Angeline
I asume that you are using a "Basic Authentication" method, if this is your case, you should configure the SICF service with the following parametters:
1) Go to SICF, /yourservice / double click
2) On the "Logon Data" tab, in the "Procedure" option choose "Alternative Logon Procedure".
3) On the same tab, at the "Logon procedure option", delete the SSO option, and change the Number of the another methods, raised the "Basic Authentication" to the first place.
4) Go to Error pages tab, flag "System logon", and after that click over Configuration, here check "Do no display warnings"
Hope this help you !

How to add screen elements at run time on button click in Web Dynpro abap?

Hello All,
I have a requirement wherein the user wants to add the textbox dynamically at runtime on button click action. My questions is, Is it feasible to dynamically add screen elements at runtime? If yes, how?
Please help.
Thanks

Hi Ajinkya,
This is absolutely possible! Adding view elements at runtime is called "dynamic programming". There are a lot of good resources and tutorials on SCN if you do a search. To start you off, here is an excellent series by Thomas Szücs:
Dynamic Programming in Web Dynpro ABAP - Introduction and Part I: Understanding UI Elements
Dynamic Programming in Web Dynpro ABAP - Part II: Handling ViewElements
Dynamic Programming in Web Dynpro ABAP - Part III: Aggregations and DDIC-Binding of ViewElements
Another option that avoids dynamic programming is to create the view element at design time but bind its visible property to a context attribute of type WDUI_VISIBILITY. You could initially set its visibility to "none" until the user clicks the button, then you could change its visibility to "visible".
Cheers,
Amy

I have made Web Dynpro ABAP iView calling Web Dynpro ABAP timesheet and linked it with page.
But It is showing an error 'Web Dynpro Application CATDATARECORD does not exist'.
Please suggest what other changes needs to be done.

Hi Anurag,
I have added new Web Dynpro ABAP iView to the same page in which Web Dynpro JAVA iview was added and made ABAP iview visible.
And this page is already assigned to role.
How should I link this ABAP iview so that it get replace by the Web Dynpro JAVA iview.
And the application name (CATDATARECORD) is correct and Web Dynpro JAVA is using the same application.
But now we want new time timesheet for that what changes needs to be done?
Please suggest.

Web dynpro abap application on Portal does not work via internet access.

Dear All,
I have created a web dynpro abap application and deployed the same on Portal.
The issue I am facing is that the webdynpro application works fine when the end user logs into Portal from Local Network,
However when the Portal is accessed from outside the local N/W via Internet, Portal is working fine for other applications like ESS
but the web dynpro application dont work.
Is this some configuration issue on the portal / abap development or any workaround is possible.
Regards
Abhinav Dagar

Hi
Please try to use the [HTTP Watch 5.0 Basic |http://www.httpwatch.com/download/] tool to trace that WD Application link from the portal and you can easily find out the problem.

BASIS settings for Web Dynpro ABAP

Hi Team,
I need to know of settings required (configuration) for Web Dynpro ABAP. Please help me on this. Please also let me know of how these settings can be implemented.
Regards,
Amit

Hi Amit
First you have to check the domain, if it is not maintained then maintain the domain in your operating system.
To do this, follow below path :
-- Right click on My Computer >> Computer Name tab >> Click Change >> Click More >> Enter your domain name in the format u201Ccompanyname.comu201D in the section Primary DNS Suffix of this computer
u2013 Click OK
And then go to your SAP to set "icm/host_name_full" in transaction RZ10.
Choose your Instance profile, click on Extended Maintenance and then click on the Change button
As "icm/host_name_full" is not present for you, add it by using the New parameter button
set the value to <hostname>.companyname.com (hostname can be seen through transaction RZ11).
Save and activate your profile and after that restart the R/3 server to take effect.
Hope this will solve your issue.
Regards
Brillion

How can I call a java object from Web dynpro ABAP application?

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,
Raymond, ABAP Consultant

if you have jco configured, then you can make calls to java api from ABAP .

Web Dynpro ABAP calling another ABAP program

I have a question and just want to know if it's possible or not.
Is it possible to write a Web Dynpro ABAP program that calls another ABAP program which happens to be an ALV report?
Rather than re-write the ABAP ALV report, I was wondering if it's possible to call the ABAP ALV report within a Web Dynpro ABAP program and display the results within the Web Dynpro program.
If it's not possible, then I assume it would be better to re-write the code from the ABAP ALV report in the Web Dynpro ABAP program.
Thanks
John

The ALV report in your classic program is coded to be displayed in the GUI only.
Your best bet would be to create a Function Module or Method that will return the data to be used in your ALV. Simply call the Function/Method from your Web Dynpro and then bind the table to the DATA context node of the ALV INTERFACE CONTROLLER.

Hello Thomas.
I got some questions for you.
I think you are a great expert on SAP Development Subject.
I saw the webdynpro tutorials that you appended on this board.
When I saw the tutorial there were some persons work with me.
And they were suprised with the beautiful graphics. It's M~uch better than the webdynpro Screens( like colours or Designs) that I use until now.
So. I want to change my webdynpro development enviroment excatly the same thing as the tutorial's one.
And I found there is URLS. That means Unified Rendering Light Speed.
It changes Some of webdynpro's development attributes.
And I also think it can spoils some or all the webdynpro components that existed before I applied URLS.
I have two questions.
one of the questions is this. If I apply URLS on my system, whether the system does get any negative effedcts from the applying.
The other question is this. I have a experience that use NWBC. And the Tutorial's GUI looks similar to NWBC. I want to know the GUI's name and What should I do if I use it on my system.
Component Version - ECC 6.0
Enhencement Package Version 3
Thank you for your concern and reading.
I deeply Appreciate you,
Regards,
Jonghwan

Web dynpro ABAP- small issue after EHC1 upgrade

Hi All,
We have a Web dynpro ABAP report and it was working fine before the EHC1 upgrade. After the upgrade we noticed that the row count in ALV greed was disappeared.
The report used to show 25 records per page and we were able to jump to the other pages by clicking on row count that was placed right below the report. Now report shows all the records and we only have scroll down option.
Any idea where to look/ how to fix this issue?
Regards,
Mike

In addition to applying that note, you also must deactivate Lightspeed rendering. To me that's too extreme of a thing to do just to get paginators. You loose the huge rendering performance improvements and it also means you can't use any of the new UI elements from 7.01.
