Prerequisites

The application unit that you create as interface between the developed WD application and the user interface is holding references on:

  • The application property definition part with the properties themselves (<Application.ApplicationProperties>),

  • The WD component container (<Application.Component>)

  • The initial execution unit which is the startup plug (<Application.StartupPlug>) and to the corresponding interface view.

Web Dynpro DC including WD component with user interface design, model reference, and data flow has been created.

Procedure

  1. Choose Create Application for the project subnode Applications in the Web Dynpro Explorer view (context menu), and make the required entries.
  2. If you want to implement an authorization check for the WD application, select the Authentication checkbox . The Java Engine of the SAP NetWeaver Application Server will then prompt a login for the WD application. This means that you do not need to write any additional code for the authentication. As a default setting, the flag is unchecked. Follow the wizard and make the required entries.
  3. If you would like to provide a Help Link for the end user, directly type the link path in application properties.
  4. In the Component modeler, select the Application entity.
  5. Select the Properties view. The Application Properties tab contains the authentication mode true , if it was defined.
  6. Select Add in the Application P roperties tab if you additionally need one of the available predefined application configurations such as DefaultLocale , ExpirationTime , LogoffURL , or SuspendExpirationTime; or if you would like to provide a user-defined application property.
  7. In the Web Dynpro Explorer view, the application is displayed. You can find more application properties in the Properties view; for adding quick info , select the General tab and enter the information for the end user. Enter longer technical descriptions in the Documentation textview.
