IF_WD_CLIENT_INFORMATION Not found in 7.4

[rahul_aware]

I am running an AWS instance 'SAP NetWeaver Application Server ABAP 7.4 on SAP MaxDB [trial edition]' . Not sure why IF_WD_CLIENT_INFORMATION interface is not present in this box.

In fact - IF_WD_APPLICATION->GET_CLIENT_INFORMATION method is also not present. This piece of functionality is present in 7.2 for sure.

Has anyone faced this issue? Do I need to install additional package on my 7.4 instance?

Any help will be highly appreciated.

Hi,

in some releases IF_WD_CLIENT INFORMATION is not supported. You have to search at first in the database for the interface:

DATA: lo_appl                                  TYPE REF TO if_wd_application,
         lo_object                       TYPE REF TO object,
         lv_name                        TYPE string,
         lv_method                     TYPE string,
         lv_screen_height           TYPE string,
         lv_screen_width             TYPE string.
*        lv_classname                TYPE seoclsname VALUE 'IF_WD_CLIENT_INFORMATION'. 

lo_appl = wd_this->wd_get_api( )->get_application( )

SELECT SINGLE COUNT(*) FROM seoclass WHERE clsname = 'IF_WD_CLIENT_INFORMATION'      "or lv_classname
                                   AND clstype = '1'.


IF sy-subrc = 0. "Interface found 
     TRY.
         lv_method = 'GET_CLIENT_INFORMATION'.
         CALL METHOD lo_appl->(lv_method)
           RECEIVING
             client_information = lo_object.

         lv_method =  'IF_WD_CLIENT_INFORMATION~GET_SCREEN_HEIGHT'.
         CALL METHOD lo_object->(lv_method)
           RECEIVING
             screen_height = lv_screen_height.

         lv_method =  'IF_WD_CLIENT_INFORMATION~GET_SCREEN_WIDTH'.
         CALL METHOD lo_object->(lv_method)
           RECEIVING
             screen_width = lv_screen_width.

       CATCH cx_sy_dyn_call_error ."INTO exc_ref.

     ENDTRY.

     CLEAR lv_method.

   ELSE.

     "CLIENT_INFO_OBJECT  

      lv_screen_width = wdr_task=>client_window->client_info_object->client_width.
      lv_screen_height = wdr_task=>client_window->client_info_object->client_height.

ENDIF.

If the Interface is not found you can try to get the information from the client_info_object.

Hi,

This interface should exist also in 7.4

But the method you mentioned is not available.

You can use the following methods:
