Why WAS

[krishnannarayanan_nampoot]

The Code that is generated with Web Dynpro Java is a pure Java code.

Then y do we need a WAS to deploy it.

Y cant we simply use any Java web server.

If its for Jco, tats also a java code.

Can we deply a web dynpro Java App in a Java Web Server rather than get a WAS 6.40

Hi Narayana

WAS is a standard technological platform where you can deploy and test all SAP New Dimensional products like mySAP Suit,Netweaver Applications and so on .Coming to webdynpro the webdynpro java all Api are implemented in WAS,So WAS with java stack only understands the webdynpro applications code ,lifecycle and also supports portal integration .The WAS supports various models like RFC,EJB,Xml and webservice models.WAS is sophisticated and flexible Platform

for all NetWeaver applications.

Hai Narayana,

To Run the Webdynpro Application in aserver , that needs Webdynpro Runtime Framework, that will avail only on WAS.

I guess i got some clue and the answer is tat the Code generated by Netweaver Developer Studio is the code for running on WAS not on J2EE Server.

Thnx to william and kalyan for takin time to answer.

Hi Narayanan,

The answer is NO, because Web Dynpro Java App can only run on NetWeaver WAS with naturally embedded Web Dynpro Runtime Framework. In other words, what is generated from NWDS IDE is not standard JEE App, thus it cannot be deployed and run on other AS.
