Web Dynpro and Adobe Form

Question

Hi
I am creating some dynamic context nodes in 1 view.
In the next view, i want to display the PDF in accordance with the dynamic context node created.
How can i supply the dynamic context node at run time to the Adobe form so that form corresponding to that node gets displayed.
Thanks

Hi Shivi Goel,
To "share" a Context node in different views, you have to create the node in the COMPONENTCONTROLLER and you have to map the node in all views the node is needed. The mapping can be done dynamically by IF_WD_CONTEXT_NODE_INFO~ADD_NEW_MAPPED_CHILD_NODE (see documentation for more information)
To bind the dataSource property of UI element "interactiveForm" dynamically, you could use the following code (in WDDOMODIFYVIEW):
  DATA my_interactive_form TYPE REF TO cl_wd_interactive_form.
  my_interactive_form ?= view->get_element( `MY_INTERACTIVE_FORM` ).
  my_interactive_form->bind_data_source( `MY_NODE.MY_DATA_SOURCE` ).
Note: You have to make sure that the form interface (of the form template provided in property "templateSource") is suitable to the Context (property "dataSource").
