Create a Graphical relationship diagram using Webdynpro ABAP

[Former Member]

Hi,

I am trying to create a Graphical relationship diagram using Webdynpro ABAP.

In my webdynpro application, I have an element 'A' that is linked to elements 'B', 'C' and 'D'.

Element 'B' is linked to some 'n' no. of elements 'B1', 'B2', 'B3'..........'Bn'.

Element 'C' is linked to some 'n' no. of elements 'C1', 'C2', 'C3'..........'Cn'.

Element 'D' is linked to some 'n' no. of elements 'D1', 'D2', 'D3'..........'Dn'.

Each of these elements should be represented by boxes and they should be connected using Arrows.

Elements are dynamic and keep changing.

How do I achieve this using Webdynpro ABAP ???.

I have gone through all blogs, articles and tutorials but couldn't find much help. Any ideas would really help.

Regards,

Tom

Hi Tom,

One word: JNet

Have a look at the [network graphics UI element|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70ehp1/helpdata/en/f5/248841a79f1609e10000000a155106/frameset.htm],

Then spend a nice long time reading the JNet doco. Then spend even longer building your XML and trying it out.

despite the diagrams shown in the doco - you can make it look quite nice.

That said - SAP seems in its own solutions (SolMan for example) to be using RIA islands for this sort of display rather than using the JNet solution.

Flex certain can make things a whole lot prettier!

Depends on your need I guess.

Cheers,

Chris
