Web Dynpro Abap popup doesn't display in portal

Hi all. A wierd issue here. We have a couple fields within a web dynpro abap application that use search helps. These search helps work fine when the application is run outside of the portal, but when run within the portal we get a javascript error about a 'null' object. Any ideas of what may be going on? I am thinkning there is some security feature suppressing the popup of the search helps.
Thanks so much...

Good news. Our basis team fixed the problem. There were some security settings on our apache server we use that caused the problem. Thought I would post the fix. Thanks for replies.

Portal theme & web dynpro abap popup

Hi all,
I have a Web Dynpro ABAP application inside the SAP Portal, with WDTHEMEROOT & WDFORCEEXTERNALSTYLESHEET parameters typed.
Everything is ok, any UI control that I used in the views is formatted according to the Portal Theme.
But right now, I want to launch a popup for a message. I use methods from if_wd_window_manager, like create_popup_to_confirm or create_window, but the popups are showed in a standard style, not the Portal theme (like the rest of the applicaton).
Anyone knows why??
The same method (create_popup_to_confirm) is used in a WD Java application and gets the Portal theme.
Thanks!
Miguel Angel.

Hi Shanti!
Yes, I did it, but the problem still remains...
The fact is that most of the elements get the portal theme (dropdownbyidx, labels, transparentcontainers, buttons...) but when I call a popup through if_wd_window_manager it appears like the standard look&feel (blue color, etc...). The popups doesn't get the portal theme.
It happens only in WD ABAP, I mean, we have other applications in WD JAVA with the same portal theme & the same popup function, and it works...
The only elements that doesn't get the portal them are the popups!
Thaks!
Miguel Angel.

Using Portal Theme for a Web Dynpro ABAP Application

Hello everyone,
I've created a web-dynpro abap application that I display on one of my portal pages using a Web-dynpro iView.
Somehow, the WDA app never reads the portal theme properties and has the default SAP roadshow theme colors. I've tried almost everything including passing the theme as an application parameter using WDTHEMEROOT and WDFORCEEXTERNALSTYLESHEET params.
Documentation states that the application should automatically read the portal's theme, but it never does.
Interestingly, I have one more web-dynpro java application that works fine and uses the portal theme correctly.
Am I missing anything? Are there special considerations for WDA apps to adapt to the current portal theme?
Any ideas, suggestions, solutions would be greatly appreciated.

>Am I missing anything? Are there special considerations for WDA apps to adapt to the current portal theme?
What are the release and support package levels of both your ABAP system and your portal? If the ABAP AS has a later release or SP level than the portal, the Web Dynpro framework will always fall back to using the theme of the backend ABAP system. This is to protect the application rendering. Running with a theme (CSS and JavaScript) from an older release or support package level could cause the application to render incorrectly.

How to integrate backend web dynpro abap application in Portal 7.3?

Hello,
before Portal 7.3 I was able to integrate a web dynpro abap application as iView in the portal. Now I don't get the point on how to do it. I cannot find a "normal" iview that enables me to give the backend and the application name. The possibilty to create iView based on remote source looks strange because I don't want to upload the application I just want to do my normal user/pass mapping and show the applicaton via iView.
Somehow I don't get the point with the new version. Could someone give me a hint where to find more information regardings this problem`?
Thanks a lot,
Vanessa

Hi Vanessa,
Could someone tell me if I should see the SAP Web Dynpro for ABAP iView template in the long list of available templates when I create a new iView?
You will 'SAP Web Dynpro iView' option in the list while creating iview from template.Create and change the property platform to 'Web Dynpro for ABAP'.
Is it correct not to use the remote source option? I think yes because otherwise he would upload the app to the portal, if I am not wrong.
If i understood your question correct,then You can use this option as well to create iview.Atlast it wil create only iview for the application not the application itself in the portal.

Problem with Table display in Adobe Form of Web Dynpro ABAP

Hi Team,
I'm trying to display a table in Adobe Print Form (not interactive). The table is bound to the context node in the Web Dynpro ABAP where the cardinality is 0:N. I get a short dump. Don't know what to do here. I'm able to display individual fields from my context successfully. Looks like something is missing when I try to display a table. Any pointers to display a data table in Adobe? Any step by step example you know of where I can find out what I did wrong? Many thanks for your time
We are on support pack SP06 on 2004S release.
DUMP INFORMATION:
Short text
    Access via 'NULL' object reference not possible.
What happened?
    Error in the ABAP Application Program The current ABAP program "CL_WD_ADOBE_SERVICES==========CP" had to be terminated because it has come across a statement that unfortunately cannot be executed.
An exception occurred that is explained in detail below.
The exception, which is assigned to class 'CX_SY_REF_IS_INITIAL', was not caught in procedure "CREATE_PDF" "(METHOD)", nor was it propagated by a RAISING clause.

Hi Thomas,
We upgraded our system(2004S) to SP10 so that we can use the ADOBE form printing in Web Dynpro ABAP but could not apply note 1034425 because of the validity constraints in SNOTE. All the pre-requisite notes are already in the system apart from one note 1029721 which talks about supporting input helps. We don't want to use input helps in our system and cannot upgrade to SP11 because of problems with Business functionality.
Questions:
1) Is note 1034425 absolutely dependent on 1029721?
2) If NOT, can someone please correct the validity so that we can implement using SNOTE.
3) Would it be OK if we manually apply the changes specified in 1034425 without implementing 1029721?
4) If all of the above is not applicable, is there any other note which fixes the above mentioned short dump.
Your help in this matter will greatly help us in using the ADOBE services provided by SAP WDA.
Thanks much

Display file content in Web Dynpro ABAP

Hello,
we would like to be able to display any file after having uploaded files using FileUpload ui element in a web dynpro abap application.
for microsoft word excel files, the OfficeControl ui element can be used and for pdf documents the InteractiveForm ui element can be used.
for other formats such as '.tif', '.jpg', '.txt'..... we did not find out how to be able to display the file contents
Does anybody know if and how this could be achieved?

Hallo Mishra,
Do You want to show data in excel ? or you want to show data in Table UI or ALV
If it is excel then you can use Office Control UI and bind XSTRING for the dataSource property.
if you have to choose between Table UI and ALV then i would choose ALV.

[Integration] Web Dynpro ABAP calling Flex in Popup (without Flash Islands)

Hi,
We do not intend to install Enhancement Package 1 in a near future.
Nevertheless, we do have requirements where Flex should be integrated with Web Dynpro ABAP (Flex components embedded or 'attached' to Web Dynpro ABAP applications).
I would like to open a popup showing a Flex component. Then, the user validates and the Web DYnpro ABAP application is resumed. All this integrated within EP 7.0.
What, according to you, would be the most effective combination :
- Suspend / Resume plug
- Server-side cookies
- iFrame (although it is deprecated)
Given what I have read so far, it seems encapsulating the .swf within a BSP application would be the best shot. Could it be possible to get rid of this 'additional layer' ?
Thanks in advance.
Best regards,
Guillaume

Web Dynpro ABAP
Define a suspend and a resume plug.
BSP
Retrieve the parameters sent by WDA either by AUTO attributes or the following code
CONSTANTS: c_resume_name          TYPE string VALUE `sap-wd-resumeurl`.
DATA: lt_tihttpnvp                TYPE tihttpnvp.
FIELD-SYMBOLS: <fs_httpnvp>       LIKE LINE OF lt_tihttpnvp,
               <fs_dept_magasin> LIKE LINE OF t_dept_magasins.
** Lecture des paramètres envoyés (par le WD ABAP)
CALL METHOD request->get_form_fields
CHANGING
    fields = lt_tihttpnvp.
READ TABLE lt_tihttpnvp ASSIGNING <fs_httpnvp> WITH KEY name = c_resume_name.
IF sy-subrc = 0.
e_url = <fs_httpnvp>-value.
ENDIF.
Flex
To return to the Web DYnpro ABAP, call a Javascript function within the BSP using this kind of code :
jsReturn = ExternalInterface.call("sendBackToSAP", selectedDepartmentsParam, orderParam);
BSP
First, to react to the user action in the Flex component, define a Javascript function in the
      function sendBackToSAP(departements, ordre) {
         fireServerEvent(departements, ordre);
         return("Done");
To fire a server-event (in order for BSP to call the WDA resume plug), I use this declaration :

       <bsp:htmlbEvent name= "fireServerEvent"
                       id = "flexAction"
                       p1 = "departements"
                       p2 = "ordre"></bsp:htmlbEvent>
Last, I simply call the URL that the WDA gives me first :
navigation->goto_page( e_url ).
If people are interested in a more detailed presentation, feel free to reply to this post, and I will write a blog about this. Nevertheless, it should become pretty obsolete with the Flash Islands release...

Web Dynpro ABAP Stylesheet - Portal Integration

We have a Web Dynpro ABAP being displayed through a Portal iView. The Portal server and the Web Dynpro ABAP server are separate. Our problem is in getting the Web Dynpro ABAP to use the stylesheet of the Portal.
We can make this work by forcing an external stylesheet (via application parameters, global Dynpro settings, or passed on the end of the URL), but we have to hard-code the full URI of the Portal stylesheet. This would be very hard to manage if we hard-code every iView's CSS location (or set every individual Web Dynpro's application parameters), and we want instead for the Portal to supply whatever the user's stylesheet is dynamically.
So what we want is: if we change the Portal stylesheet, the Portal would just pass the new stylesheet URI to our ABAP Web Dynpro iViews without manual modification of the iViews.
Here is an example of what works:
http://our-abap-server.com/sap/bc/webdynpro/sap/cprojects?sap-ep-themeroot=https://our-portal-server.com/irj/portalapps/com.sap.portal.design.portaldesigndata/themes/portal/ourportalstylesheetname
Shouldn't the Portal iView automatically pass sap-cssurl or sap-ep-themeroot to Web Dynpro ABAP? We have "Supply Portal Stylesheet" checked on the iView it just doesn't pass anything to the Web Dynpro ABAP. Why wouldn't SAP pass this parameter dynamically to the Web Dynpro ABAPs? Is this a product error?
There seems to be a great deal of confusion about this on the SDN message forums... I think this may be the core issue.
We are using a 7.0 SP13 Portal with an ECC 6.0 SP12 backend.

Now that you mention it, I ran into that exact same issue -- the application parameters didn't work for hard-coding the theme. The fix ended up being the web server semicolon thing I mentioned earlier (that was why the parameter didn't make it to the backend).
The themeroot is automatically sent to the backend from the portal, so you shouldn't really have to manually send it as a parameter anyways.
I'd suggest talking to your network guys. Also this could be the result of the SP you are on (we're on 13 for the portal and the backend system -- maybe this feature doesn't work in some earlier SP's?). There are also some options to force the theme as a WD application parameter on the backend side, which you could check into. Details on those are here:
[http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/7b/fb57412df8091de10000000a155106/frameset.htm]
Also you could look at the requests being made by installing HttpAnalyzer in your browser. You can inspect "post" parameters going from the portal to the backend system. One of those posts (the first one to the backend system) should contain the parameter sap-cssurl (same kind of thing as sp-ep-themeroot). This is where our problem turned up as this parameter was not being posted.
Lastly, make sure that your frontend portal and backend portal are in the same domain. For instance:
frontend.domain.com
backend.domain.com
If your backend and frontend are in different domains it messes all kinds of things up, including stylesheets I think. If you can't get around this, then read about domain relaxing (but I highly recommend getting the domains the same).
When we started, ours were:
portal.dx.company.com
sap.company.com
This created all kinds of problems. Putting our systems in the same domain with the same protocol and fixing our little semicolon web server problem fixed basically all of our portal complaints. Up until that time, we had also had many problems with session management (backend sessions were getting stuck until the HTTP timeout).
That's all I know. Good luck.

Smartform in web dynpro Abap

Hi,
I'm trying to implement a web dynpro abap with a smartform.
I used the "How to Display a Smartform as PDF document in Web Dynpro for ABAP" document that e can find on sdn.
My problem is that when the form is called, there is a dump
"Please maintain an output device in your user master data. ".
I copied the code in a report and the form is displayed.
Did I miss something?
Kr
Karim

This workaround solution for smartForms sends the output to the Spool and then converts the spool to PDF. For it to work it has to have a printer id for the formatting to the spool. You must maintain a default printer in your user ID or pass in a printer into the output settings of the smartForms function module. Because all of this is occuring in the background, the smartForms function modules can't just popup a dialog asking for a printer.

Sequencing Problem in Web Dynpro ABAP

Hi Web Dynpro (ABAP) Guru's,
Can anyone tell me how to read a parameter from the WDA url in my view? The situation is like this: My WDA is being rendered in the Portal EP 6.0 as an iView. When my WDA is called the portal also appends in the URL the plant number. I want to grab that plant number and use it in my view to show some default data.
As per other weblogs/forum posts I defined a parameter "PLANT_NO" in the "Default" startup plug of my Main window. I'm using the Get_Data method to read this parameter in the plug. I'm able to read the URL parameter here and so far it is good. Read below for the problem..
If I understand the order of operations correctly, doesn't the views get created, then the default plug code is run, then the views are placed on the window and then shown to the user. Since my views are created before my default plug is run I DO NOT get the URL parameter value in the WDDOINIT of my view. When I debug the application, the WDDOINIT of the embedded view gets called before the Default startup plug. Am I missing something here?
If someone can tell how to read the URL parameter in the WDDOINIT (instead of Default Startup) of the view I could default in the data I want to display. OR any other suggestions to get past this problem would be appreciated.
Does this make any sense and does anybody have an idea of where I could find some info about how to do this?
Thanks much for your help. Points will be awarded.

Thanks Klaus for the response.
I don't want to read the parameter from the default plug, but need to access the URL parameter and display default data in my view. Let me explain the scenario:
My Web dynpro application is called from the Portal. The Plant number is passed in the URL as:
http://...../sap/bc/../../<Web Dynpro Application name>?PLANT_NO=0012
I want to show Material Stock values in the view for Plant "0012". To access this value I've defined a parameter with same name (PLANT_NO) in the default startup plug of my main window. I get access to the URL parameter through this plug parameter.
I have only ONE view embedded in this window where the Stock values are selected from table MARD for the specified plant. I want to get the plant value from URL in my WDDOINIT method to make this selection from database. I'm then binding the results to the view table UI element. My problem is that the URL parameter is read in the Default plug, but the data selection and view binding happens before in the WDDOINIT method where I don't know the plant.
Again, I don't want to read the plug parameter, but I want to get the URL parameter (PLANT_NO) and then render the view based on the data selected for this parameter. Please let me know how this can be achieved by reading the URL parameter in WDDOINIT method (Constructor) so that it can be used subsequently in the application.
Thanks for your help and looking for a resolution.....

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.

Pass Parameters to an external appl when launched from web dynpro ABAP .

I want to Pass Paramaters to an external application when launced from Web dynpro ABAP . I have successfully launched an .exe file ( Notepad / eViewHSEditor ) from Web dynpro using the logic from Standard WD_TEST_APPL_ACFEXECUTE component But I am unable to Pass paramters to the .exe file .
example :- I would like to pass parameters text1 text2 in the arugement list and I expect it opens an untitled notepad and in the file it will have parameters text1 text2 . But it is behaving in a different way . Below are the detailed steps of what I have done .
The steps that I followed :-
1) Right now I have created the white list Configuration for Notepad.exe
2) I have created 1 and 2 postions both of type string and permission Legal .
3) The Paramter Value is * for both 1 and 2 .
4) I activated the whitelist and it generated an .XML file
5)
          application = 'C:
WINDOWS
system32
notepad.exe'.
          argument = 'text1 text2' .
          co_element :- I am reading the element from the conrtext .
      co_element = wd_context->get_lead_selection( ).
      co_element_stru-attribute_name = 'ERROR'.
      co_element_stru-element = co_element.
      wd_this->acf_method_handler->if_wd_acfexecute~execute( application = application
                                                             argumentlist = argument
                                                             errorinformation = co_element_stru ).
when i execute the application , it is trying to launch a notepad with file 'text1 text2.txt' and it doesn't have one , it is asking do you want to create . If You yes, it will open notepad with name 'text1 text2.txt' . If you Pass abcd in the arugement list , if the file with name abcd.txt exists , it opens the notepad with that file name .

You try to open notepad from your PC with the same command, you will the same result.
start->run->notepad "test1 test2". You get the popup saying that "test1 test2" file is not existing. You can google it to find a way to pass the text while opening notepad and try to fit that in your WebDynpro argument. I doubt if it is possible though.
