Inheritance component controller

[Former Member]

Hi all!

Usually I use my methods of component controller(like work with popup or display messages) in every WD component.

After create new WD component I copy my methods from another controller to current.

How can I call methods from "parent" component controller in current like in OO?

You can create an interface component if you have many children components which you to have a similar interface. This is probably as close to OO style inheritance you can get with Web Dynpro Components. You can't have direct parent/child style class inheritance in WD Components. Perhaps these methods should be in a normal ABAP class and used via the Assistance Class or directly within the controller. That way you could use full class inheritance.

Thanks for answers.

Unfortunately assist class is only way to repeat use code.
