Book Description
Serious developers must stay ahead of the curve by ensuring that they are up-to-date with all of the latest standards. This book illustrates the many benefits that can be realized with component-based UI development using Web Dynpro for ABAP. On the basis of specifically developed sample components, readers are introduced to the architecture of the runtime and development environment and receive highly-detailed descriptions of the different functions and tools that enable you to efficiently implement Web Dynpro technology on the basis of SAP NetWeaver 2004s. Numerous code listings, screen captures, and little-known tricks make this book your indispensable companion for the practical design of modern user interfaces.

Reader Reviews
The book is mostly about how to use a recent SAP user interface, offered under the rubric of the WD4A framework. One trivial but immediate suggestion is that perhaps SAP could have chosen a catchier name than WD4A. Just like HP used to do. Gives you an idea of the specialised nature of the topic, and how it's mostly for engineers and coders. Much of the text describes the various GUI facilities available to you. Pointless to go through these one by one. Suffice to say that SAP seems to have furnished a comprehensive framework. Making it relatively easy to build a customised application. It is important to note that the issues are not entirely GUI. The Web Dynpro uses the standard MVC design pattern approach to building a web server application. You should be well familiar with this.
