How does caching work in Web Dynpro

[Former Member]

on several SAP slides I found that Web Dynpro provides "sophisticated caching algorithms" for speeding up the user interface generation. But how does that work internally? Has the UI developer any influence on that? Are there any technical articles that explain web dynpro caching? I found absolutely nothing so far.

Thanks in advance,

What kind of caching do you refer to?

I just want to know if there's something similar to ASP.NET's "Output-cache" in Web Dynpro. Does it cache pages that were already rendered or does it construct the entire page on each request? I didn't find any information on that in any book about Web Dynpro (ok, there aren't very much...).

This depends on the Web Dynpro client. As you probably know, Web Dynpro supports multiple clients (HTML, Smart, Mobile, ...)

In the HTML client implementation for example, there are mechanisms to realize flicker-free screen updates. Many of these optimizations depend on the capabilities of the user agent (Javascript etc.)

In any case, this is completely transparent for the Web Dynpro application.
