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.

Runtime error in Visual Composer

I'm develping a Composite View in Visual Composer using BAPIs. I'm using BAPIs just because my SLD isn't ready to publish the enterprise services from ECC and SCM/APO. The main objective is learn how to use VC to create applications consuming data from BAPIs, Web Services, BI Query etc...
I developed a simple application using the bapi: BAPI_LOCSVAPS_GETLIST2 from sap APO.
Inputs ports:
LOCATION_SELECTION - TABLE
Input: LOGICAL_SYSTEM and MAX_NUMBER_OF_LOCATIONS - signal
The problem is the following: when only the out port ouput is used, there isn't any problem, and is possible to compile and deploy the Composite View and the output (NUMBER OF LOCATIONS FOUND) is correct.
But if I try to select some TABLE out port like LOCATION_TEXT, an error occurs in runtime (compile and deploy without problems): Connection Error: contact your system administrator: HTTP request error.
I tested the RFC Connections and also, tested the BAPI using the Test Data Service and all the tests were ok and that's why I don't know what is wrong. In design time there isn't any problem, instead in runtime the error mentioned above occurs.
EHP1 SP1 for SAP Netweaver 7.1
IE Version 7.0.6001.18000
Data Source :ECC and SAP APO u2013 In VC is used BAPIs, configured via RFC Destination
Thanks...

Hi,
I think "Implementing a GP Interface" makes no sense in this case. Take a look at <a href="https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/wiki?path=/display/vc/limitationsofWeb+Dynpro&">VC: Limitations of Web Dynpro</a>.
It seems that Web Dynpro in VC is not supporting all kinds of services and functions.

WebDynpro ABAP application in Visual Composer 7.0 SP 14?

Hi Experts,
i have few webdynpro applications that i want to reuse in Visual composer. i was trying to use the SICF service thats created as result of creating application, as webservice however this does not work.
Any suggestions.
Greetings
Prashant

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 :

Visual Composer Accessing Runtime Data

Hello everybody,
I need to access runtime data from Visual Composer such as user logged, I need to obtain this info to display it in a input field in a form view, has anyone did this before or any suggestions, thanks in advance.
Regards,
Ivan

Hi,
On your compose window, you would find something called user data under connectors. Drag and drop that inside your view and try to fetch information from that.

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.
Best Regards,
Marcel

Print action in WebDynpro runtime (Visual Composer)

I have added in toolbar for the table the button and as action have specified system action "Print". But in WebDynpro runtime it does not work unlike Flash (there is no pop-up window with a choice of printers). How to solve this issue?

Jax,
I don't think it's possible to directly print from within WD and call the printer dialog box per my understanding.
But a workaround is achievable:-
1. Create an Iframe element in a new view and embed an html page containing the print JavaScript i.e window.print();
2. When you select the Print button, on its action handler navigate to other view containing the Iframe where the script will get executed and it should probably open a pop-up.
Note: WD does NOT support JavaScript or client side eventing.

Problems using Visual Composer with Web Dynpro runtime

I am currently trying to build a Visual Composer iView and we need to use the Web Dynpro runtime rather than Flash because it needs to work with a screen reader for users with sight problems. Which is a pity because Flash works fine. But when I use Web Dynpro runtime I'm getting the following problems:
a) When I define fields and pushbuttons in forms where Align Contents is set to Absolute, they do not appear at runtime in the positions in which I've placed them - all form elements are aligned vertically. The only other options are to align all fields vertically or align all fields horizontally. This lack of flexibility makes it rather difficult to create a good screen design; the only option seems to be to create a separate form for each set of differently aligned fields, which leads on to the next problem. .
b) When I define more than one form on a page, again at runtime the forms do not always appear in the positions in which I've placed them; the compiler seems to calculate how much space it needs to display the screen elements and then re-sizes and re-positions the forms accordingly, ignoring what I've told it to do.
c) Toolbar pushbuttons do not appear on forms (they do appear on tables). Irritating, but at least I can still create pushbuttons on the form itself.
There are other issues, but the main problems is that it appears that when I use VC with Web Dynpro I cannot trust the editor layout at all and the only way I can build something that looks decent is to fiddle about with field / form sizes and positions, checking every change on the output, until hopefully I get it looking ok. Having to do this will dramatically increase the time taken to develop VC applications. Has anyone else experienced these problems with VC and Web Dynpro? Has anyone managed to overcome them?

Thanks, but neither of these describes the problems I've been having. And they are misleading since they say that you can use VC with Web Dynpro only with Web Services ie not directly with BAPIs / RFCs, but using it with BAPIs / RFCs is one of the few things that works well in our system.
The most recent problem I've found is that if you make a form or table read-only it will stay read-only in Flash but the fields are editable in Web Dynpro. The individual field disable option does work for Web Dynpro, but it turns the fields from black to a vey pale and almost invisible grey (this doesn't happen in Flash). And you can't seem to change this.
It does seem to be a bit pathetic that input fields can't be made read only. I've tried expression boxes, which are read-only anyway, but they appear in as pale a grey as the disabled input fields. And although plain text fields can be added to tables, they are pretty useless since they can only hold a single value and so all the lines will contain the same value.
I guess I should resign myself to the fact that I am never going to be able to produce a decent screen using VC and Web Dynprp.

Visual Composer table horizontal scroll bar

Hi Experts,
is it possible to have horizontal scroll bar in visual composer iview?
is it possible to lock initial n columns from scroll in VC iview?
if possible the pls tell how?
Thanks in advance
Anupam

Hi Anupam..
The below info may helps you .......
Visual Composer produces applications in a declarative form, thereby enabling completely code-free execution mode for multiple runtime environments. It provides full application lifecycle support by maintaining the connection between an application and its model throughout its lifecycle. Visual Composer is designed with an open architecture, which enables developers to extend its design-time environment and modeling language, as well as to integrate external data services.
As a result, Visual Composer modelers increase productivity by reducing their development effort time from weeks and months to days. Domain experts gain the means to express their requirements directly rather than conveying them to developers. This narrows the gap between application definition and implementation.
Starting with a blank canvas, the Visual Composer user draws the application in Visual Composer Storyboard (workspace), without writing a single line of code. Since no traditional programming skills are needed, business process experts can prototype, design and produce entire applications.
A typical workflow for creating, deploying and running an application using Visual Composer is:
Create a model
Discover data services and add them to the model
Select necessary UI elements and add them to the model
Connect model elements to define the model logic and data flow
Edit the layout
Arranging the UI elements and the controls of the application on forms and tables.
Deploy the model
This step includes compilation, validation and deployment to a selected environment.
Run the application
The application can run using different runtime environment (such as Adobe Flex and HTML)

Authorization End User - Visual Composer 7.2 Application

Hello,
in our visual composer 7.2 application users should be able to use function modules to read and write DSOs.
Can anyone tell me, which authorizations we need to do this. Is the authorization object for calling RFC enough or need the persons also be authorized on the corresponding dso`s-names and RFC`s-names.
Thanks.
Regards,
Lars.

Hello Stefan,
This is a feature of Webdynpro Flex runtime. You can adjust column widths at Flex runtime in 720 SP3 also.
This is not supported by Webdynpro HTML runtime.

Visual Composer to display products in a Grid

Hi Experts,
I need to display products as images and label below it in a 3x4 manner.
I will test Visual Composer to display products in a Grid. So I need help on solving this issue and need your expertise.
Please send me some link or documents, Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks,
Iqbal

Hi Iqbal,
the only way to display a product list is to use a table and tables in VC are very limited especially the layout of the tables (as a grid).
I recommend to use webdynpro in this case, because you can define the exact layout and you also can add dynamicly during runtime further rows for your products and you haven't to use a table.
Best Regards,
Marcel
