ABAP EML in a RAP scenario (draft BO)
ABAP cheat sheet example class

"! "!

The example class demonstrates ABAP EML in the context of a RAP demo scenario (managed and draft-enabled "! RAP business object with RAP late numbering). The class represents a RAP BO consumer.
"! Choose F9 in ADT to run the class.

"! "!

Purpose

"! "! "!

Getting started (1)

"!

To use this class as RAP BO consumer, see the ABAP Doc comment about "! getting started with the example class of class {@link zcl_demo_abap_aux}. "! "!

Getting started (2)

"! Using the preview version of an SAP Fiori Elements UI as RAP BO consumer "!
"! Create a service binding: "!
  1. Find the service definition ZDEMO_ABAP_RAP_CALC_SD in the imported "! package in Business Services -> Service Definitions.
  2. "!
  3. Right-click the service definition and choose New Service Binding.
  4. "!
  5. In the New Service Binding pop-up, make the following entries: "! Name: ZDEMO_ABAP_RAP_CALC_SB; Description: Service binding for demo, "! Binding type: OData V4 - UI, Service Definition: ZDEMO_ABAP_RAP_CALC_SD "! (should be already filled)
  6. "!
  7. Choose Next.
  8. "!
  9. Assign a transport request and choose Finish.
  10. "!
  11. The service binding ZDEMO_ABAP_RAP_CALC_SB is opened. Activate the "! service binding.
  12. "!
  13. In the Service Version Details section, choose the Publish button "! for the Local Service Endpoint. Once the service has been published, "! you should see ZDEMO_ABAP_RAP_DRAFT_M in the Entity Set and Association "! section.
  14. "!
  15. Activate the service binding once the service has been published.
  16. "!
  17. Select ZDEMO_ABAP_RAP_DRAFT_M and choose the Preview button.
  18. "!
  19. The preview version of an SAP Fiori Elements app is displayed. If "! prompted, provide your credentials.
  20. "!
  21. The app and the managed, draft-enabled RAP BO can be explored. If no "! columns are displayed, choose the 'Settings' button and select the "! desired columns. "! Choosing the 'Go' button refreshes the list. At first use, there "! might not be any entry. You can create an entry choosing the 'Create' "! button. "! The late numbering aspects enter the picture when you, for "! example, create a new instance, i. e. create a new calculation, and "! you keep a draft version of it instead of saving it to the database. "! The calculation ID which represents the key of the instance has an "! initial value. Only when you save the instance to the database, the "! final key is set. "! The effect of side effects can be explored as follows: Make an entry "! in an input field, click another input field (e.g. to make a new entry "! there), and check how the value for the result changes.
"! "!

Note

"!

This simplified example is not a real life scenario and rather "! focuses on the technical side by giving an idea how the communication "! and data exchange between a RAP BO consumer, which is a class "! in this case, and RAP BO provider can work. Additionally, it shows "! how the methods for non-standard RAP BO operations might be "! self-implemented in an ABP. The example is intentionally kept "! short and simple and focuses on specific RAP aspects. For this reason, "! the example might not fully meet the requirements of the RAP BO contract.
