Display an Interface View 

The interface view directly coupled to a Web Dynpro window and is automatically created when a Web Dynpro window is created. It represents the connection between both the Web Dynpro application that can be called by the user as well as a Web Dynpro window of a different component, if necessary. In this way, Web Dynpro windows can be used for cross-components.

 All properties and elements of the interview that are displayed are created and processed as part of the window in the window editor. If the inbound or outbound plugs were assigned the selection Interface in the window editor, they can be seen as part of the interface view.

Properties

The first tab page of this tool displays the administrative properties of the interface view.

Inbound Plugs

Using one of their inbound plugs, an interface view that is embedded in an external component can be called by a view (or a different interface view) (see also Interfaces of Web Dynpro Components).

Each window is automatically assigned an inbound plug called DEFAULT when it is created. This inbound plug is also automatically selected in the Start checkbox as well as in the Interface field. This means that each interface view automatically has an initial inbound plug, which is also selected as a start plug.

 The Start checkbox determines whether an inbound plug of an interface view should be made available as a possible initial calling point of a Web Dynpro application. If this field is not selected, the window belonging to the interface view via this inbound plug is only possible via an outbound plug of a different (interface) view as part of an application that has already started. See also Window: Inbound and Outbound Plugs.

For each inbound plug that is newly created in the corresponding window, an event handler method is created automatically that can also be programmed appropriately. However, this method is not part of the interface, it can only be displayed and changed in the window editor (see also Controller: Events and Controller: Methods).

 

Outbound Plugs

Outbound plugs are the logical counterpart to inbound plugs. They can be used to leave a Web Dynpro window via its interface view to another window either from the same component or an external component.

If the Exit checkbox is also selected, this means that the Web Dynpro application currently running is ended when this outbound plug is called.

You can maintain importing parameters for outbound plugs.
