wdDoInit() is not called

[Former Member]

Hi,

I am running an example from SAP WebDynpro tutorial (A Simple Input form) and I got a null value error from the checkMandatory method.

The method throws the null exception beacuse a field value is NOT initialized. The initialization should have been set in the wdDoInit() method but The wdDoInit() method is not executed.

I thought wdDoInit is called automatically before a form is rendered. Pls help me trouble shoot this error. Do I miss a setting a flag or variable ?

Thanks in Advance

First make sure that you have included the view into the window.

The view is already included in the window. Is there anything else?

Thanks

Please be sure that any input fields on your view are bound to a view context attribute.

Thanks Rich....I rename the context attribute name and the input field is not bound to the new attribute.

Right, when you change the name of the attribute, you must re-bind the layout field to the context. Glad that it worked out for ya.
