Running a Web Dynpro Application on the Portal 

Purpose

This describes how to call a Web Dynpro application from an SAP Enterprise Portal iView and to create a Web Dynpro iView with a dedicated Web Dynpro iView template to call a Web Dynpro application remotely using HTTP.

The Web Dynpro runtime uses the currently active portal theme automatically. If you start the Web Dynpro application outside the portal the standard SAP theme is used.

If a customer has defined his own portal theme using the Style Sheet Editor the CSF styles required are also generated automatically. However you can also configure the theme to be used when the Web Dynpro application is called outside the portal.

·        An up to date version of the SAP WebAS is installed that contains the Web Dynpro runtime environment.

·        You are familiar with the Web Dynpro Tools and have already developed n a Web Dynpro application.

 

Features

The integration contains the following features:

·        You can create Web Dynpro-based iViews using a special Web Dynpro iView template.

·        Web Dynpro applications are called remotely using a URL.

·        The Web Dynpro application automatically uses the current portal theme.

·        Application parameters can be passed to the Web Dynpro application as startup parameters.
