DDLB In WD-ABA for Antony :-)

[former_member191062]

Hello Antony,

so from your post it seems to me that you tried to create the dropdown from the context. This is basically not possibble. You need to use the element: Enumerated Drop-Down list or the Enumerated Drop-Down list (no-select) form the Webdynpro native tab. /* Layout */ Than you have to make the assignment manually.

If this does not help you, can you please describe step by step what you are doing?

Best regards,

Thanks Dezso.....

Scenario 1 .

1. Create interface in SFP with attribute type string.

2. Create Form with context of the interface of first step and activate the form. (layout type - ZCI layout)

3. Create a WDA component. insert an Interactive form UI elelment.

4. Assign the template source as the step 2 form.

5. Bind the context attribute to the Enumerated DDL of WD native library. Also change the REPLACE_THIS with context attribute name.

6. Populate the Drop down attribute in the context with values at the init method of the view.

7. Active the WDA components and test the application.

Result - Drop down arrow not visible. (Is this because the cardinality is missing as it is a single attriburte)

Scenario 2:

1. Create the WDA component.

2. Insert a Interactive UI element in the view. make it ZCI layout type.

3. Set the view context with an attribute of type string.

4. Enter a form name in the template source and bind the view context as the interface - context for the form.

5. Do the same binfding and specify REPLACE_THIS as the context attribute name.

6. Populate the attribute at the WDOINIT method.

Result : Dorp down getting populated but no values.

Wat is missing here.....

Thanks and Regards,

Anto.

Hello Antony,

the cardinality is not a problem. This is a single value with a value_set. So this is not the problem.

If you place a Webdynpro dropdown onto the screen, do you see the list in this?

If you select here a value and submit, is this reflected on the interactive form?

If you could record it and send it across now and attach it here later , that would be great.

I tried selecting the value in the DDL in the WDA view, but it is not getting updated in the Adobe form. I provided rthe data source correctly and so is the binding to the fields..

What could be the issue here?

Why is it that, the values in the data source are not getting reflected in the form even after binding them as we do in any other development like WD JAVA, ISR or print forms?

Thanks and Regards,

Hi Dezso,

I was referring to this <a href="https://websmp230.sap-ag.de/sap(bD1lbiZjPTAwMQ==)/bc/bsp/spn/sapnotes/index2.htm?numm=1013227&nlang=EN&smpsrv=https%3a%2f%2fwebsmp208%2esap-ag%2ede">note- 1013277</a>. Is this applicable for WDA?

I am using a NW04s SP9 vesrion. Should i go for the patch as per the note - 982023?

I beleive this is not the case for why the view context values are not getting reflected in the Adobe form. (when both are given the same binding).

Also, Does this have some thing to do with Adobe Designer 7.1 patch?

Thanks and Regards,

Anto.

Hello Anto,

SP9 is a problem. For WD-ABA the ZCI has been only release with SP10. /* Some features even need SP12 */

If possibble update to SP13 as in this SP you will have a sampe for this feature in the appliaction: WDR_TEST_ADOBE.

I am sorry to give you the negative answer.

Best regards,

Hi Dezso,

Does it mean that, WDA is not possible in SP9? Is it not possible atleast to pass value from WD view field to adobe after mapping the context attributes...

Any hot fxes?

Thanks and Regards,

Anto.

[former_member191062]

Hello Anto,

WDA works and Interactive forms also work but in ActiveX mode, where there is no DDLB for WDA.

So this will not work for you in SP9. For this there is no hotfix, as in this SP this feature is not delivered.

To use this feature you will need to apply SP's.

Hi,

I was trying with activex, On changing the layout type to ActiveX, I am not able to insert the script. I see that option to be inactive, I tried in a SP10 system. i am able to make it work there but the form comes non-interactive.

In SP9, the active x form seems to be non-interactive, and the value is not getting passed from view context to adobe form..Is there any way that i can make the view context attribute value passed to Adobe form field and make it interactive?

Regards,

Hello Anto,

In ActeiveX mode you do not need the script. In ActiveX mode you have different library.

The DDLB is not available in that for WDA.

When you change the layout type to Activex, you ned to insert a script through utilities->insert webDynpro script. Thats what i remember doing.. I beleive its said so in help.sap too...

Anyways, i am getting the forms to be non-interactive when made Activex. Could be that the firewall is preventing the auto updation .

In my WDA Activex library, I see the enumerated DDL's, is this only for WDJ?

Also I don't see 'display type' as one of the properties of the Interactive UI element in WDA in SP9. I changed the layout at the properties in SFP. But it seen in higher versions..

Thanks and Regards,

Anto.

[former_member191062]

Hello Anto,

in the application you always have ActiveX display as there was no other that time for WDA.

The script insertation is only for ZCI case. In Active X mode this is not neccessary.

The DDLB in ActiveX is only for WDJ.

ok, So the text fields must be working in Adobe forms in SP9 right?

[former_member191062]

Hello Anto,

check the standard component: WDR_TEST_ADOBE.

It should show you the possibilities in your SP. /* I could not find here an SP9 system for testing */
