Creating a Simple Web Dynpro Application 

You can download the Web Dynpro project for the current tutorial from the Software Developer Network SDN (sdn.sap.com ® Web Application Server ® Web Dynpro ® Sample Applications and Tutorials) in two versions: one skeleton version you can use for exercises and one final version (solution) for an immediate build, deployment and run on the Java engine of the SAP Web Application Server.

Purpose

To start with, you create your Web Dynpro application using a simple example that illustrates the basic concepts of developing Web applications based on Web Dynpro. The example application should look like this:

The Web Dynpro application consists of only one page, which contains the static part Welcome to Your first Web Dynpro Application and a graphic. Text and graphic are displayed in the Web browser. The text is inserted using a UI element of the type TextView. The graphic is a MIME object, which is inserted using a UI element of the type Image. Both UI elements are inserted into a UI element of the type Group.
