How to retain(hold) the session ?

[Former Member]

HI Experts,

I have a dynamic table.I have done some manipulation in the table(table customization).I want to retain the table state.

For ex:-

I customize my table to display 25 columns.(initial size-30 column).So now if I log out and again log in,i should get the same 25 columns(and not 30 column).

Please suggest me how to do that.

Regards

Hi Sandip,

This is not possible with Session Management. You can use cookies for this to keep inormation. But cookies are not reliable, it can be deleted by the user or by the browser unnaturally before it expires.

Another one way I suggest is you can maintain a DB table to keep track of this information though it is not a good way of programming.

Kind Regards,

Hi,

you can use a property file and update the values in that property file to retain it. For example, you can have entries like

SHOW_ROWS = 10

MAX_ROWS = 30

and anything else that you require.

Thanks,

Is there any other way I can retaing the state by creating context node and attributes?

My objective is to retain the state so that when I log out and again log in,I should get the same state.

Thanks in advance.

There is an example-application of SAP (the Quiz-application) using a properties-file, at least for reading. Check out http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp2005/helpdata/en/ba/bd83a4c70cfc449313d26d69283317/frameset.htm . Additionally you have to store the data in the properties-file in the exit-method of the component controller. However, of course this is not userspecific. If you need something that is specific for a user, i would go for a database.
