Migrating Dynpro Projects to DCs

[HuseyinBilgen]

Hi,

Asume that we've created lots Dynpro projects before NWDI. Now we've configured NWDI for general usage and we want to migrate our Dynpro Projects into DCs under NWDI.

1. Which one is preferred? NWDI or JDI?

2. Is it feasible to create a DC and move all the Applications and Components under it, so all projects are collected under a single DC? Or we must prefer to create seperate DCs for each Project?

Which approach is best?

Best Regards

Create a new Webdynpro DC in NWDS, Go to webdynpro perspectives Navigator View, Expand the old project node > src > packages > com right click on com, copy the whole folder and paste it on the same path in the new DC (in Navigator view), similarly copy everything from the old project node > model folder > src > packages > com and paste at the same node in new DC. Now go webdynpro explorer view right click on the DC and select the option Reload and Rebuild.

You are done. Deploy and run the application.

Hi,

isn't NWDI and JDI the same. I think SAP renamed the JDI to NWDI since it's not only java stuff stored in the JDI...

I think you would probably create a separate dc for each project. You shouldn't create too large DC's, and not to small either.

An application can allso use several DC's. There is no general rule actually.
