hi rahul.........

a normal view is the one which will be present in your component inside a window.

in case if you want to embed a view from any other component into the current component.... then you will create a UIcontainer element and you can embed that view inside this UI element with the help of component usage.

note:

the interface view will be automatically created whenever you create a webdynpro component.

the interface view will be linked with the webdynpro application so that it can be called using URL.

eg:

if you are creating a webdynpro component 'A', an interface view will be automatically created.

consider you are creting another component 'B' in which you want to display the views of component 'A'.

you have to create the component usage for 'A' in 'B'.

by doing so you will be able to access all the views of component 'A'.

Create an UI container element in one of the views of component 'B'.

then go to the windows,. there you can embed the view of component 'A' in this UIcontainer element.

hi,

The View is the View that you create under the node View. But the interface view is a Window it will be having one to one relation with the Window and the Interface view.

The interface View can contain more than one view.

A normal view is a view whereas an Interface view is actually a window. When you define any component, there will be a node 'Interface view' which will list the main window of the component.

When you create a component interface and define an interface view in it, the interface view will be visible in any other component that implements this interface. You can embed other views in it.

Hope this helps

Hi Rahul.

The normal view is a view of a component which is displayed by embedding it in the window of the component.

An interface view is considered as a window of a component which can be embedded in other components.
