How to use JDI with Web Dynpro

[Former Member]

Can any one help me with detailed steps on how to put my Webdynpro development components into JDI?

We are already done with the development work. Now we have JDI installed and want to source safe the project in JDI.

So, my requirement is only to put them in JDI, to be able to check-in and check-out any future changes and use the JDI to deploy the applications into QA and production systems . No team development or anything.

For this case, which of the 3 tutorials ( Team oriented development, Development with track, Development with layers) given in help.sap.com will be ideal?

Please help.

Hi Aditya.

As per ur explanation what i understood is u only want to use the DTR service of JDI. Right ?

if so then as u explain u have already JDI in place so following steps should solve ur problem

1. Create a track in JDI. If u dont want to use CMS service then while making track don't specify any runtime system.

2.In ur NDS(IDE) -windows -preferences - specify the JDI server url http://<server ip >:50000

3.Go to DC perspective and login to DTR. Import the Track configuration.

4. Select it and create a new Web Dynpro DC with desired name.

5. Copy the file structure from your existing local project to DC.. These will be under an activity..

6.ter that Build and Deploy and test your new DC.If it works fine then in DC perspective Check in and activate the activity..

hope this will solve your problem..

good luck n keep us inform abt ur progress..

Hi Aditya,

Step for creating Webdynpro:

1. Open Development Configuration Perspective in NWDS. In the “Local DCs” view, right-click on “Local Development” and choose “Import

Configuration…”

2. Login remote with your username and password. It will create development infrastructure in Inactive DCs. There you can create the component like webdynpro, Java, J2EE, Enterprise Portal, etc.

3. Creating Webdynpro in the DTR perspective.

Step 1: Right click on Inactive DCs -> Create new DC.

1. By default vendor name is SAP. You can change vendor name according to your requirements.

2. create a new Web Dynpro DC with desired name.

Name should not exceed eight characters (Recommended)

create a new Web Dynpro DC with desired name.

3. Select the language

4. Select the domain

5. Select the component type

3. Copy the file structure from your existing local project to DC.. These will be under an activity..

Step 2:

1. Build and Deploy and test your new DC.If it works fine then in DC perspective..Right click on src folder->add subtree ->create activity.

See this thread discussing about how to migrate local project to JDI..

Hi Aditya ,

sorry for late reply..

ok i assume ur track is in place..

so u go to NDS(IDE)

windows>preferences>Java Developement infrastructure-->Developement Configuration pool. enter the address of sld of ur JDI. eg.< http://<server>:<port>; >

then under that click the button ping server..

it must give ping successful.

then goto Development perspective, right click on ofline and login with ur username and password created in JDI.

then again right click and do import configuration and choose remort. It will show ur track. expand that and select the developement configuration suffixed by "_D"

this is doe developement perpose.

now u can proceed and create new DC's

hope this will solve ur problem

Hello Aditya

This msg comes if the user with which u loged in to DTR has not all required previlages..

u have to add SLD previlages to ur user..

tell ur JDI Administrator to go to security provider and select the SLD service and add ur user to that role list

it will solve ur problem
