Hi Sujatha,

With SAP ABAP, Anyone has to log in into SAP GUI ( Thro Log on Pad ) to view any applications.

But with Web Dynpro you can give access thro Web ( An URL ) where the users can view applications thro WEB without any SAP GUI Installed.

WebDynpro is one application where there is a separation of business and presentation logic while observing the Model View Controller (MVC) concept, or addressing component-based

reuse-focused software development.

WDA ( WebDynpro Application ) framework was developed completely in ABAP Objects,you will encounter object-oriented concepts throughout the implementation.

Let me know any Questions on WebDynpro.

With Regards,

ABAP is SAP propitiatory language used in all kind of development works and the output is usually seen in SAPGui which is a thick client.

Where as Web Dynpro runs in a web browser e.g. IE, firefox, chrome. And ABAP Web Dynpro is more Object Oriented and follows MVC architecture - this affect the way Web Dynpro is coded.

If you know ABAP and not much of HTML / javascript, Webdynpro hides that complexity and provides you a structured MVC programming pattern

Dear Sujatha,

PFB the basic differences between ABAP & WDP ABAP.

1)ABAP is an intranet application where WDP is internet application.

2)In WDP, we make use of code wizard which reduces nearly 70% of coding.

3)In ABAP, programs can be accessed viz T-codes,Where as WDP applications can we access using 

   FQDN(Fully Qualified Domain Name).

Webdynpro is to create screens which can be viewed in Web Browser.

ABAP is programming language and here we do create screens as well using Modulepool but these can not be viewed in Web browser.

Though in Webdynpro we do code using ABAP only(Object Oriented) but the screen design part is different and it follows MVC(Model View Controller Architecture).

ABAP is a programming language.

ABAP WebdynPro is one of the UI frameworks (with designtime tools and runtime) written in ABAP that helps you to write and extend web based applications in ABAP.

Parallel of that would be Java programming language and the various UI frameworks like JSF 2, Spring etc...in Java.

Dear sujata,

Abap is programing language while  Webdynpro is User Interface Tool.

We develop Webdynpro application by using abap language as back end. .
