Is WebDyn ABAP or WebDyn JAVA better for developing Adobe forms ?

[former_member225041]

Hi Experts,

For our project development we have to decide the option of using Webdynpro ABAP and Webdynpro Java for developing Interactive forms.

What are the pros and cons when it come to select between Webdynpro ABAP and Webdynpro Java for developing Interactive forms.

Can someone provide the advantages and disadvantages over each other.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Vinay,

It depends on various factors. one is skill availability. IF client has Strong ABAP Development team, Client can go with WebDynpro ABAP, but if client has more Java skills, no issue in going with WebDynpro Java.

In HR, If you choose to use WD-ABAP, you can use many standard WD-ABAP components as search helps. ( WD-abap components HRRCF_C* , HRASR_C* etc )

But do keep in mind that, even if you go with WD-ABAP, you cannot do away with scripting using FormCalc or Javascript in Adobe Form depending on the complexity & UI elements/Search helps etc.

I personally prefer WD-ABAP & would strongly recommend WD-ABAP. Afterall, it is the language of SAP :).

Thanks,

Phani

For Adobe forms it is the same.

The other thing is the company standard and maintenance problems. If the choice is free, then is free and you can pick any one of those, but mostly the company standard is WD ABAP or WD Java and the company doesn´t want to use both, then you don´t have a free choice.

In my opinion this is not a question about Adobe forms or WebDynpro but about other points of view.
