Hi,

Check this wiki to create a context menu on right click: How to create static context menu in Webdynpro ABAP - ABAP Development - SCN Wiki

And in onAction of menu item, call the other web dynpro application.

Try the below code:

data lv_url type string.

CALL METHOD cl_wd_utilities=>construct_wd_url
EXPORTING
application_name = 'ZWD_COMP' " Your 2nd component which you want to open in new window
IMPORTING
out_absolute_url = lv_url.



data lo_window_manager type ref to if_wd_window_manager.
data lo_api_component  type ref to if_wd_component.
data lo_window         type ref to if_wd_window.

lo_api_component  = wd_comp_controller->wd_get_api( ).
lo_window_manager = lo_api_component->get_window_manager( ).
lo_window         = lo_window_manager->create_external_window(
                      url = lv_url  ).
lo_window->open( ).

Hi Kiran,

Thank you for your reply,

I have a doubt here, can i directly call the another browser window like Google on click of the menu item.

Hi,

Yes, You can. jus pass the url which you want to call to the create_external_window( ) method.

data lo_window_manager type ref to if_wd_window_manager.
data lo_api_component  type ref to if_wd_component.
data lo_window         type ref to if_wd_window.

lo_api_component  = wd_comp_controller->wd_get_api( ).
lo_window_manager = lo_api_component->get_window_manager( ).
lo_window         = lo_window_manager->create_external_window(
                      url =  'http://www.google.com' ).
lo_window->open( ).

Hi Kasi,

Just creating context menu will not be sufficient to get your menu. You need to assign the context menu to the ui element or container.

Please find the below snap shot, in which the MENU is assigned to a rootuielementcontainer

Hope this helps you.

Hi Kasi,

Make sure that you have activated the view  ,

If you are still having issue, please share the screen shot of your ui element and menu assignment details.

Hi Kasi,

The browser's context menu is disabled in  WDA but not the context menus of WD applications.

Hi Kasi,

Change the contextMenuBehaviour to "Provide" instead of "Inherit" as below
