WebDynpro - ESS Working Time

[Former Member]

Hi All,

I am brand new to WebDynpro development, so please forgive me. We are testing ESS on EP6 and I need to make some modifications to Working Time. Can someone tell me how I can get to this code?

I am used to working with .par files for JSP dynpages, etc., where I could just download the .par file, make modifications and export back tot he portal. But I am unfamiliar on how to work with WebDynpro applications in this way.

Thanks for any help you might offer on this.

Hi...You need to implement the DTR and import the ESS Source code. You can then check out the ESS source code in NWDS.

I recommend going to this link. http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/b0/ee3441d95dd92be10000000a1550b0/frameset.htm.

Click on SAP Java Development Infrastructure. Scenario 2+ and/or 3 will give you a good overview.

You can download the DTR install guide from the SDN. Look Netweaver - Development install guides.

Thank you very much for that Stephen. I really do appreciate it. I am looking into that now.

One other question: I have been able to find plenty of documentation on how to create a webdynpro application. I don't see too much problem with that. But where I seem to be having trouble is, what all needs to be installed/configured to allow me to work with webdynpro applications.

I am used to working with .par files within NW Dev studio, which is really straightforward as far as import/exporting, but there appears to be more work involved in working with WebDynpro from a Developer's standpoint. Can you suggest any complete documentation on step-by-step what needs to be setup behind the scenes so that i can work with WebDynpro apps in NW Dev studio?
