Building your views
This brings us to our Views. Views are basically HTML documents that display variables, nothing more nothing less, although you can include some ABAP code like in normal Pages with Flow Logic.
As you recall in the DO_REQUEST of each controller we told it to create a view and we gave the htm file. We now will create those files.
So jump down into your application and choose “create”, “page”. You can go ahead create each of those pages, once in place we can go back through and add in our code and attributes.
Pages
- faq.htm
- info/intro.htm
- obj/cat.htm
- obj/index.htm
- obj/sdn.htm
- obj/sdnlinks.htm
- obj/subject.htm
One major difference these pages have to those we created in the first series is that they have no type definitions or event handlers, that is all handled in the controllers. Here have our Attributes and our Page Layout.
Now the Attributes must correspond to those we defined in the controller, the ones that we gave to the “default_view” in our DO_REQUEST method.
faq.htm

info/intro.htm
| N/A |
obj/cat.htm
| Iterator | Type Ref To | IF_HTMLB_TABLEVIEW_ITERATOR |

| sri | Type | I |
obj/subject.htm

Now that we have our Attributes in place we can freely put our page layouts in.
