Hi,

As a starter you can follow the simple tutorials that are provided in Netweaver Developer Studio help.

Are you familiar working with Netweaver Developer Studio?

Are you familiar working with Java Development?

If not then goto help.sap.com to get help.

Coming to your question:

If you want to create a Portal Component, then you should first create a Portal Application (Portal Project in NWDS).

Then create a Portal Component in this Portal Application.

These are all documented in help.sap.com

Joshua,

Its pretty simple.

Open NWDS.

Click on file- Create Project->WebDynnpro.

Once you have created a project(example - sampleproject) and click Finish.

You will be able to find this sample project in webdynpro explorer on the top left corner.

Once you click on the + sign next to sampleproject.

You will find.

WebDynpro

1. Applications.

2.Model

3.WebDynpro Component Interface

4.WebDynpro Components.

Dictionary

SRC

Right click on Application and create an application, this is a kind of an entry where the application can be accessed via internet, something like an url.

While creating an application, it will ask you to create a component also.

If you dont want to create a component there, you can as well do the same by right clicking on web dynpro components and creating one there.

Once your done with your application.

Rebuild the project by right clicking on the project.

Deploy and run the application that you have created.

PS: Go to Windows->Preferences->J2EE engine and mention the details of the server before you deploy the application.

Cheers,

Sandeep

Just one last question, on creating iviews. Do I create all the iviews in one view or create each iview (indiviually) as a seperate view?

[praveenkumar_gudapati · Accepted solution]

Hi,

This depends on your business requirement.

You can create one IView in one page or multiple IViews on one page.

You can also add Pages to Pages.
