Webdynpro Table sorting

[Former Member]

Hi All,

We are using the UI Table element in our webdynpro screen (Not using ALV). Now is it possible to use the sorting (ascending, descending) and also sorting by individual columns without changin it to ALV ?

And in our screen, we have many editable fields. When the user makes a change and tries to exit without pressing 'SAVE' option , we should display a pop-up asking whether the datas should be 'SAVED' in database table. Is there any standard fm for doing this?

Thanks in advance.

No standard way of doing these thihgs, You have to implenment the conetxt change log for that node to which the table is bound and get the log for changes and in the button handler, based on the entries in log you have to open a popup for data save..

Hi Amit,

Am able to apply the sorting. Thanks a lot.

But one thing am noticing is that I have applied the sorting to only one column of the table

wd_this->table_control->set_key_attribute_name( 'MATNR').

• here column "MATNR is sorted

My table has 6 fields. Am able to see that after writing above piece of code am able to sort all the six columns in the table.

Can anyone explain how this is happening?

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

The sorting functionality can be achived for normal table UI element also.

You can write the code in the events (ONSORT) of the table UI element.

hi

it is possible to sort the table

u must have binded ur context node to the internal table in WD DOINIT.

thn proceed like this :

1 Go to Attributes Tab, Give TABLE_CONTROL in the Attribute Column , Check the Check Box in the RefTo Column & give IF_WD_TABLE_METHOD_HNDL in the Associated Type.

2 Then create one Event for onSort Event of the Table .Then Give the Action Name as ON_TEST_SORT and press Enter.

3 In the onaction method ie ONACTIONON_TEST_SORT

wd_this->table_control->apply_sorting( ).

4 write this piece of code in WDDOMODIFYVIEW

data wd_table type ref to cl_wd_table.
check first_time = abap_true.
* Name of the table UI element to be provided
wd_table ?= view->get_element( 'TABLE' ).
wd_this->table_control ?= wd_table->_method_handler.
*Name of the key attribute of the context node to which the table binding is done to be  provided
wd_this->table_control->set_key_attribute_name( 'MATNR' ).
// here column "MATNR is sorted

regards,

amit
