Many moons ago (mid 2003 if I remember correctly), there was a concept of a configuration controller. This controller was part of the Component Interface, but was dropped by the beginning of 2004 (I can't exactly remember when it was dropped).

However, the generation of the stub file called IExternalInterfaceCfg.java has persisted in developer studio.

Don't worry about this controller, its not available for modification, and isn't called by the framework.

Sekaran,

If you mean IExternal<ComponentName>Interface<b>Cfg</b> controller, then it is just some strange artifact generated by WD generator for every component.

For more then 2 years with WD I haven't seen any usages of this controller (neither in custom code nor by WD runtime itself).

Hi,

A google search for 'WebDynpro Configuration Controller' gave me this link, but it doesn't clearly say where to find this controller:

In the document, pages 10 & 15 have references to 'Configuration Controller'.

To say it in Mr. Spocks's words: Fascinating.

Seems to be an outdated concept of Web Dynpro. If you google further you will also find articles saying that Web Dynpro uses JSP's

Hallo Skaran,

there is no Web Dynpro controller of type 'configuration'. The Web Dynpro programming model knows the following controllers:

- Component Interface Controller

- Component Interface View Controllers (optional)

- Component Controller

- Custom Controllers (optional)

- View Controllers (optional)

You can implement a custom controller which deals with configuration specific tasks.

In which context did you read this term?
