CALL A WEBDYNPRO JAVA FROM ABAP

From the abap code of the transaction BBP_BID_INV i want to call a webdynpro java that shows a table´s content, that is the main problem , anyone has any experience with this?
Can i use portal eventing with epfc?, or bapis? maybe badis? object navigation though the pcd?
Whatis the best option?
Cheers.

Hi,
And as you said it Java Webdynpro application, it should be possible to generate the URL for the Application at runtime.
I also haven't tried, but it should work. Please let me know if LinkTOURL doesnt suffice, we can try and check if it works.
Thanks,

Javascript future in Webdynpro (JAVA and ABAP)

Hi WebDyn Pro's,
I see many sophisticated capabilities enabled inside Webdynpro for JAVA from use of Javascript. Further, in many cases, Javascript provides the only solution for the requirements!
From this forum, I think I hear that Javascript capabilities may be disallowed in future WebDynpro releases by SAP.
I have 3 questions related to this:
1. Why would SAP want to disallow usage of Javascript inside WebDynpro applications? What is the harm?
2. Does SAP think that customers should be able to provide these same capabilities without use of Javascript?
3. Will this same Javascript limitation exist in WebDynpro for ABAP?
Thanks,
Kevin

"Many sophesticated capabilities enabled inside Webdynpro for JAVA from use of Javascript." - that is true
1. It is to have a standard for development inside, and outside SAP. Otherwise developers will use ... who knows what they will develop... and there have been quality problems in projects that SAP has to deliver - SAP has 30,000 employees, any of whome can develop in their free time. With the current framework, all these issues have been taken into consideration.
2. SAP and the Webdynpro development team in Walldorf will continue to enhance the webdynpro framework in the forseeable future. There is an alternative if you want to use Javascript. Please use Java Dyn Pages for unlimited java script coding. This can be seen in Portal Development Manual. http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/fd/01f34026d70b06e10000000a155106/content.htm
3. Yes it will apply in ABAP. WebDynpro is the common framework that is used for both ABAP and Java. It Java/ABAP independent "so" to say. But it works better with Java right now than ABAP.

Webdynpro JAVA VS Webdynpro Abap

Hi all,
which one is the best platform of webdynpro (JAVA OR ABAP)
Regards,
Antony.A

SAP announced a number of years ago that Web Dynpro Java had reached maturity and would be developed no further, only maintenance updates and fixes would be rolled out. WD ABAP however is still be enhanced.
Ultimately, if you want to consider non-ABAP web development you should be looking at SAPUI5/OpenUI5.
Having said that, WD Java is still a powerful tool and I enjoy working with it - as Shai Lapidot has mentioned with the link above, there is life in the old dog yet...

Calling Webdynpro Java Application from Webdynpro ABAP Application.

Hi,
We have developed one Application using Webdynpro Java and I m in need to call the Webdynpro Java application from Webdynpro ABAP.
Require Suggestions to acheive this.
Thanks In advance.
Reg,
Ajay.

Dear Ajay,
Assuming that both your applications WDA & WDJ are in the portal & you don't have to pass any parameters to the WDJ application.
Write the following code on the action where you would call the WDJ application.
DATA:
        lr_compcontroller TYPE REF TO ig_componentcontroller,
        l_component TYPE REF TO if_wd_component ,
        lr_port_manager TYPE REF TO if_wd_portal_integration ,
        wa_navigation TYPE navigation.
lr_compcontroller =   wd_this->get_componentcontroller_ctr( ).
l_component = lr_compcontroller->wd_get_api( ).
lr_port_manager = l_component->get_portal_manager( ) .
* The value inserted into the navigation-target field can be found in the Portal
* content administration tab of your portal. It is the ID or PCD Location field
wa_navigation-target = pcd. " Please provide the PCD Location of the WDJ Application here.
wa_navigation-mode   = '0'. "0 = INTERNAL(same page) and 1 = EXTERNAL(new page).
CALL METHOD lr_port_manager->navigate_absolute
    EXPORTING
      navigation_target = wa_navigation-target
      navigation_mode   = wa_navigation-mode.
You can get the PCD from the Page properties of the WDJ application page in the Portal.
Hope it helps!
Warm regards,
Upendra Agrawal

Access ABAP table in Webdynpro Java application

Hi All
Is it possible to access ABAP table in Webdynpro Java application
Please provide your input
Thanks
Karthi D.

Hi you will connect to the remote SAP system, the
backend, using an Adaptive RFC MOdel. To access database tables, you can make use of existing functions in terms of RFC function modules. For each function module you need, the system generates a corresponding Java proxy class. All the generated proxy classes and interface are bundled together in the RFC model and treated as part
of your Web Dynpro project
In WebDynpro java you RFC by using Model :
Adaptive RFC Model
1. automatically adapts to changes in function module signature
2 provides support for data types and extensibility
3.support for different structure definitions in different backend
systems (release dependent structures, custom adaptation)
Basic principles and guidelines

Webdynpro Java and Webdynpro ABAP

hi all,
Im working in webdynpro java. Im confused about WD java and WD ABAP. which one we should select for what? And now a days people are telling that SAP is coming up all business packages in WD ABAP. Is it true? Which one is better either WD Java or ABAP?
Thanks,
J.Smitha.

Smitha,
It's tough question to answer. Which one to choose either Web Dynpro java or Web Dynpro ABAP , it depends on which technology you are comfortable. In relation to the business packages SAP already provided allmost all of them in java and in the future all the Business packages also available in ABAP. It's all how you want to develop the application. In sap portal world some applciation which we can develop with ABAP Web Dynpro and some applications with JAVA Web Webdynpro as SAP Web AS available as dual stack.
If someone already has a strong ABAP background and has WD for ABAP available they should probably use that. If they are a J2EE developer they should probably use WD for Java but it is likely they will also then need some ABAP support for the backend systems.
I think more customers may be asking for WD for Java projects simply because it has been around longer and is more widely available to customers where as some cutomers prefer to develop their application using ABAP Web Dynpro because of SAP propritary. But ultimately it's again all our interest and customer.
Thanks
Krishna

WebDynpro ABAP vs WebDynpro JAVA for Adobe forms--PCRs--MSS

Hi Experts,
This might be a generic question :
I am modifying PCRs (MSS 1.0,EP 7,ECC 6.0) and now I have come to a point where I need to decide if I have to use Webdynpro JAVA or Webdynpro ABAP for modifying Adobe interactive forms which come with MSS 1.0 out of the box from SAP.
What does SAP suggest??
What do you suggest??
Quick answers appreciated

Hi Aditi,
Thanx for your suggestion but let me just detail what Iam looking for;
I will have to develop a custom PCR for Hire/Rehire (no workflow -- weird right),
now if I develop Adobe forms for this, my question is how am I going to bind these forms to the scenario (QISRSCENARIO).
Whatever is entered in this form is not going through workflow but is going to be directly updated in the database when the manager says SUBMIT.
Usually the HR developer goes to the scenario and selects input by Adobe form and clicks <b>generate</b>, but now if I develop the form using Webdynpro JAVA how am I going to integrate the generated form to that particular scenario.
Sorry if Iam not clear enough, but I really need help in this regard.
Thank you

Webdynpro ABAP or Webdynpro Java?

Hello experts.
I want to learn to develop WebDynpro's
Do you which of the two tools do you recommend? webdynpro java or webdynpro abap.
Greetings

Hi Lupe ,
Although both technologies have same functionalities but even then they are not identical.
Following are some of the differences:
Language :- First difference is the programming language used as the names Webdynpro ABAP and Webdynpro JAVA reflect. In ABAP Webdynpro, along with ABAP coding, RFCu2019s are also supported via Service call. Unlike Webdynpro ABAP, we cannot do ABAP coding in Webdynpro JAVA. Instead RFCu2019s and Web services are created and used in it to serve this purpose. In addition to Web services and adaptive RFC, Java Beans is another model supported by Webdynpro JAVA.
Design Time Environment :- Webdynpro ABAP requires ABAP Workbench (SE80) while SAP Netweaver Developer Studio is necessary for designing Webdynpro JAVA applications. So, additional installation is required. This studio reduces the development effort and utilizes some visual tools for creating components which can be reused.
Storage :- Applications developed using Webdynpro ABAP are stored centrally in ABAP server whereas in case of Webdynpro JAVA, the code remains on the client machine that is developed using a tool called Netweaver Developer studio. So, due to the powerful version control system of Webdynpro ABAP, the load removes from the development machine which is not possible in case of Webdynpro JAVA.
Skills Required :- For Webdynpro ABAP, a developer should have knowledge of ABAP programming, Development tools, Database concepts, ABAP Objects. However, Webdynpro JAVA requires skill set comprising java programming, java development tools and object-oriented concept.
Performance:- Large scale applications that involve large number of web users canu2019t work well on ABAP server. So, for robust and scalable applications, Webdynpro JAVA is preferred because of powerful J2EE server as proved by Sun Microsystems. However, small-scale or applications involving small or medium users can go well with Webdynpro ABAP. Thus, performance varies depending on the number of web users and one can choose ABAP or JAVA accordingly.
So the decession is that its totaly based on your available skillsets and your scenario to be implemented.
Thanks & Regards,
Monishankar C

Integrating ABAP workflow in WebDynpro java

Hi Friends,
I have a requirement from the client where I need to add some additional services (Functionalities) to the existing ESS application.
1. The ESS package already contains many standard DC's such as for "Address","Who is Who" etc.Now I am adding a new functionality "Allowances" to that.
2. I am not using FPM based development architecture to acheive the same.Instead the ABAP team has created a workflow ,so that the approvers in this "Allowance" service can get their approval in their UWL.
3. Please help me in finding a sample code or let me know how do I do the same using webdynpro java and integrate it as a service in the standard ESS package.
If anyone has got some documents pls share the same : meet.raj34ATgmail.com
Regards,
Ranjan

Hello Giang,
You will need at least a placeholder object. Have a look at ESS Leave request - WS12300111 - it functions exactly as per your scenario.
Cheers,
Mike

Issuse with WebDynpro iViews - Java or ABAP

We frequently get calls from users who complain that they can't see a screen in the portal, and it is usually because they have accidentally collapsed an iView.
The problem we have found is that it doesn't seem to work with WebDynpro iViews - Java or ABAP.

Rohit,
You can also hide the tray display on you portal by setting the iView property "Show Tray" to "Yes".
