IF_WD_APPLICATION 

The IF_WD_APPLICATION interface allows access to description data that is valid for the entire Web Dynpro application.

Methods

GET_APPLICATION_INFO

Method for retrieving the metadata description of the application. The result is an object of type IF_WD_RR_APPLICATION.

GET_IS_RTL

Method for specifying whether or not the application can be switched to right-to-left (RTL).

The text direction of languages from the middle east, for example, Hebrew and Arabic is right to left. Right-to-left (RTL) is the opposite of left-to-right (LTR) which is normal for Indo-European languages. However, in RTL languages, numbers (such as telephone numbers or posting items) and proper names are written left to right. So in RTL languages there is often a mix of RTL text with LTR sentence parts from LTR languages.

The Web Dynpro programming model supports the RTL concept. Application developers should note the following points to use the full extent of RTL support:

●      Make sure that frames appear in the correct sequence, that is compared to LTR the order of frames is mirrored in RTL:

○       Menu and content lists belong on the right-hand side

○       The actual content belongs on the left.

●      If required, create RTL versions of your images and make sure that the RTL versions of images are used in the application.
