Direct Access

[Former Member]

Hi Guys,

How do I directly access the database using webdynpro? Thanks.

Hi,

Going by the MVC design pattern, it is not recommended to have database access logic in the WebDynpro component.

You should use an EJB or a JDO to access the database.

However, if you are keen on accessing it from Web Dynpro, then ideally in the wdDoInit() method of the controller you will do a JNDI look up for the Data Source and establish a connection and use this connection in the event handlers for making actual database calls.

Hi,

as one of possible approach you can try JDO:

<NWDS install path>\SAP\JDT\eclipse\examples\J2EE_GettingStartedJDO.zip

And to bind results you can use JavaBean model in dynpro.

Hi Chia,

You can access the database either by creating an EJB or by just creating a JDBC connection.
