Specifying the NavigationLocate this document in the navigation structure

Context

A view can only be displayed by the browser if it has been embedded in a window. A window always contains one or more views, which are connected by navigation links. One of these views is specified as the default view and is displayed the first time when the window is called for the first time.

To define the navigation between the views, you must create exit and entry points for each view using outbound and inbound plugs. You can then specify the navigation flow using navigation links. The navigation then can be triggered with a special method that is generated for this purpose.

Procedure

  1. To navigate to the window, double-click the component WelcomeWindow in the Web Dynpro explorer. The graphical tool displays two rectangles representing the views.
  2. Choose Link from the Palette and draw a line from the WelcomeCompView to the ResultView .

Results

  • On the WelcomeCompView an Outbound plug called Out is created.

  • On the ResultView an Inbound plug called In is created.

  • An event handler with the name onPlugIn has been automatically created for the ResultView .
