Why not "Web Dynpro with ABAP"?

As a newbie I found "Web Dynpro for ABAP" to be confusing. Any ideas why its worded that way? Just curious.

Hi,
because it's a programming model created for abap programming.
If you look at the true content of webdynpro you come out at:
declarative programming of all the navigation, ui, datadisplay and gathering, without
writing the code, but letting the code to be generated.
so it's a concept build for abap,
not with abap (although the classes and interfaces are)

Java Web dynpro with ABAP Clients?

Morning,
We have a situation where we would like to use a Java Web dynpro with multiple ABAP backend data sources. This is for autorization as well as data. We are not using Enterprise Portal.
We've created a pair of system Jcos and mapped them to the Web dynpro via the URL. This works and the correct data from the correct Client is retrieved depending on which pair of Jcos we define in the URL.
The problem we are having is that we are only able to logon using the ABAP Client defined in the ume....master.client parameter.
Is there a way to achieve this (again without EP) either in the system configuration or programatically in the web dynpro?

Hello,
Thanks for the updates. Actually my query is we have a SCM 5.0 system which has a java stack in it. But now we are going to upgrade it to SCM 7.0. - Is SCM 7.0 has a java stack ?
If it doesn't have , can we upgrade SCM 5.0 to SCM 7.0 without Java Stack ? Is it posssible to upgrade without Java Stack or not ?
Is it possible that we can convert Java Stuff into ABAP web dyn pro ? If yes , how shall we can achieve it ? If not, how shall we proceed in an alternate way ?
Thanks for your help in advance.

N4S: Web Dynpro for ABAP layout editor not working

Have problem in Layout editor in Web Dynpro for ABAP
I have installed NW04S Testdrive on 64bit Linux and able to login.
SE80 is working alright.
Next I create a Web Dynpro Comp. / Intf. and create a component.
I double click on the View name "V_Default" . The Layout editor opens on the right side. Change into Edit Mode.
The "View Elements" panel on the left side of layout editor is missing. This is where we select the various elements like "Textview" etc.
Even the right click on the "ROOTUIELEMENTCONTAINER" to insert elements using context menu does not work.
In summary I am not able to add any element in WD4A Layout screen.
Is there any special plugin required to be installed?
How to solve this problem?

you cannot develope Webdynpro for ABAP using ECC5
This is available with netweaver 2004s (WAS7.0) for which ramp up is going on right now and the general availability is expected sometime around 1st quarter for 2006.

Issues with portal integration of Web dynpro for ABAP application

Hi,
I have the following issues when i integrate a Web Dynpro for ABAP application with portal.
1. the iview does not contain some images, such as table scroll button images, maximize and close buttons of popups etc.
2. the iview loads properly, but there is an error in the status bar that says "Access denied"
3. is it possible to do absolute navigation from
   role1->folder1->iview1 to role1->folder2->iview2?
   when i fire this navigation from the webdynpro
   application, the navigation does not happen in the
   portal.

I think you are overestimating the power of the SCM_STRING_TO_XSTRING function module. By supplying a URL as the value of the input text, it isn't going to magically go read the content from the remote location and convert that to a binary string. It is going to take whatever value you supply in th importing TEXT parameter convert that to binary. In other words it is literally converting the string http://xxx/test.xls to binary. You will need some other mechanism to read the content from the remote location into ABAP memory before you can process it. You will need to use the CL_HTTP_CLIENT class or call some sort of web service to retrive the content.

How to use web service with ABAP Web Dynpro

Hi.
do you know, how to web service with ABAP Web Dynpro?

Hi,
If you have a webservice ready with you then you can generate a proxy from SE80 and you can use that. You just have to create a port and assign to that generated proxy(CLASS) and you are good to go.
Let me know if you need more information.
Thank You,

Full ABAP Edition-Trial (with Web Dynpro for ABAP) Max DB data volume

I recently installed Full ABAP Edition-Trial (with Web Dynpro for ABAP)- SPS08.
http://static.flickr.com/89/243544270_91e713e3a3_o.jpg
as you can see, it's already 92% acquired ( just after installation)
Is it correct?
or it's better to add another volume?
The other question is
according to the license installation guide,
it sounds like we can delete the temp licese with SAP*.
so I did like that but i got the following message
http://static.flickr.com/81/243546622_bc99d1af2b_o.jpg
Well, I could delete the old license with BCUSER.
Thanks,
David

Hello,
to your first question.
The MaxDB database has a feature which can
increase the database automatically.
This ( auto_extend ) is turned on for the SDN Preview
installation.
That means the database should extend a further datavolume
automatically when the filling level gets over 90%.
In your case the database already added two more datavolumes. The installation only creates one.
Best regards, Stefan

Troubles with Windows 7 Enterprise and Web Dynpro for ABAP

Hello together,
we've installed Windows 7 Enterprise and IE 8 and are using Web Dynpro for ABAP.
Since this installation on one Client, it is not possible to use the WD application - the sites seems to be frozen!
I know the fact, that SAP will support Windows 7 in March 2010 but it would be very helpfull if someone could give me a hint to solve this problem before.
Thanks in advance,
Andreas

Hi,
Go to internet explorer -> tools -> internet options -> Advanced
There locate the check box "Enable memory protection to help migrate online attacks" and uncheck it.

BSP / Web-Dynpro (Java / Abap) what to use in this case ?

Hi all,
i have some questions about all this BSP/Web-Dynpro stuff. We have an application (for health care written in Visual Studio) out there at our customers. Some of these customers are using SAP as their backend system. So we've writte some backend functionality (a cash processing, additional reports, a special invoice system etc.etc.) in Abap and Abap-Objects. Actually we are planing a new release for this backend stuff which is using the normal SAP Gui.
Maybe we plan for the next release to convert our app to a Web based app and we discuss what SAP technology we should use for that.
Here are my questions :
- When and why should we use Web-Dynpro (Java) ?
- Can't we use BSP ?
- Is there any future for BSP ?
- When will Web-Dynpro for ABAP be released (actually we are not a Java Shop so Abap is prefered)?
Hope someone can answer my question.
Greetings
Henning

If you don't mind, I am going to terminate discussion of Web Dynpro ABAP here. It is not that I want to, but we are in a difficult position with this development, and can not really discuss it too much.
But, let me first make a few (last) comments:
(*) BSP is available since WebAS 610 (which is now nearly at the end of its lifetime). WebAS 620 is the main platform out there, with NW04 (WebAS 640) now shipping, and the next product is inevitably coming. If you keep in mind that SAP supports each release at least 7 years, and we will be shipping BSP in an upcoming release, you can see that with BSP you are not going to left stranded for many years to come.
(*) Web Dynpro Java is out and shipping. A very nice development environment. You can build nice things with it.
(*) Web Dynpro ABAP: it will become a very nice product as well. We should know :). But, it will definitely not ship on NW04 platform. Which unfortunately means the next great NW shipment (both naming and date is not available).
From our experience, most people seem to make their decisions based on the available Java versus ABAP skills in the shop. However, the other factor to look at is also "pixel perfect" rendering. Only with BSP can you influence the rendering. Web Dynpro is more a development platform for business applications, and as such they must conform to the designated model/concepts, etc.

Interactive Forms by Adobe in Web Dynpro for ABAP: offline scenario

Hi colleagues,
I have the following problem:
So I created a web-Dynpro with an interactive from. In this application there are two scenarios:
- An Online scenario: it works!
- An Offline scenario: unfortunately doesnt work (The problem persists in this scenario).
As I understood correct, I should be able to upload the PDF-file from my documents. But the up-load option doesnt work.
Please see the steps I follow:
1. I created a FileUpload-application and then I browsed a PDF- File by using browse-button. And I got a standard open-window and I was able to choose a PDF-file, which I want to open.
2. I click on the button upload and it doesnt work. But the current page is only refreshed. In case it works, I should see the information I have uploaded onto my PDF-form.
I already discussed this issue with my colleague, but couldnt find the solution yet.
Does anybody have the idea, why the Upload option doesnt work?
Thank you in advance!
Kind Regards,
Mohamed

Hi Mahamed,
I got your problem. You have not done anything wrong.
It is WebAS version which is not supported for this functionality.
But there is solution to this problem
Please refer to the SAP Note number - 1055738.
I think you will get the answer and the scenario described there will match your requirement.
This is a know issues with WebDypro ABAP but this works fine for Java Web Dynpro.
I have also tried for 2 months but finally came to know about it.

Hi Heidi
My server is not in the domain. It is in work group.
Is it neccessary that server should be in domain?
Could you suggest me the work around when server is in workgroup.
Why it is showing hostname of the other server in the URL instead of the server on which I am developing the application?

Import Data from Office Control (Web Dynpro for ABAP) into internal-Table

Hello,
I have a question concerning the Office Control UI-Eelement in Web Dynpro for ABAP:
How can I import spreadsheet data from the Office Control into a internal-table?
I have an Excel-sheet (without any data) which is shown initially in the Office Control. First the empty Excel-Sheet will be loaded and in the second step data from an alvxml-transformation will be loaded into the Excel-sheet with the method 'activatexmlsource'. This works so far. When I change the loaded data in the Office Control and save it it will be stored as XLS-File. The problem is that I'm not able to use existing Upload-FM because every function module I tried uses GUI-functions and WebDynpro has no GUI-functionality. I always get the error that data from clipboard cannot be imported.
So now the question is:
How can I import changed data from the Office control into a internal-table staying in Web Dynpro application?
Please give some advice, if you have some useful code or ideas.
Thanks

Hi,
Once you save to desktop again you have made some changes to that file, this file you want to upload it right.
Then in that case you need to use the FILEUPLOAD UI element right.

Exporting content of ALV grid in Web Dynpro for ABAP

Hello Experts
I have a following request which seems to be giving some headaches.
I need to export results from one of the Web Dynpro reports (ABAP) I have developed to the Excel spreadsheet. Results are stored on ALV component. Request is to add header to export file with additional information like report title, selection criteria, date when report has been executed. By default export file contains only column names and data. I have set the header for ALV grid with all extra information I need to be passed to Excel file but it does not seem to be transferred at all.
At the moment I see 2 possible solutions: 1) write my own Excel export 2) use PDF export where it is possible to set header/footer text. None of these solutions are ideal, I'd rather set header in standard Excel export. Is that even possible? Please help.
Regards
Michael

Hello Michael,
I haven't tried using the builtin functionality of ALV to achieve a similar fnctionality as yours but can suggest you a workaround for that. As how you might be already knowing you can try using the CL_WD_RUNTIME_SERVICES=>attach_file_to_response to download the contents into Excel/notepad/word. So just can modify the internal table to contain the extra information that you need. You can use the approach below for using the attach_file_to_response method:
1) First read the table's data into an internal table.
2) Convert the internal table data to STRING format.
3) Now convert it into tab separated format as how desired.
4) Convert this STRING format to XSTRING format
5) Make use of the attach_file_to_response method.

Uday
