How to trigger a refresh from SAP

[Former Member]

I have setup a web dynpro to display information from a function module in SAP. The function module executes abap programs in the backend SAP system and returns a result to a table in SAP. The information in this table is read by the function model that is bound to the web dynpro. I would like to know whether it is possible to trigger a refresh of the information displayed by the web dynpro once the abap in SAP has finished running. How do I go about implementing this in Developer Studio?

Thanks

Hi Seb,

the only solution is to use the TimedTriggerUI to get your browser doing a refresh. Even if you would have a thread running which polls yours backend, the server has no possibility to send this to your http client (browser).

With the timed trigger your browser refreshes (connects) in intervals to the java app server. This events can be used to poll changes.

Best regards,
