Creating Your First Web Dynpro
Application
Task
In the following tutorial, you will be introduced step by step to the basic concepts involved by implementing an elementary Web Dynpro application. The user interface for this Web application will consist of only two views and will allow you to switch between them. In the first view, the user should be able to enter his or her name in an input field and navigate to the next view using a Go button. This name should then be added dynamically to a text field and displayed in the welcoming text in the second view.
In the following sections, you will get to know each of these stages in turn: Creating a suitable project framework; designing the UI; implementing the event handlers; defining data binding for UI elements; and finally, deploying and executing the Welcome application on the J2EE server.
