关于sap:SAP-Fiori-Elements里Drop-down-list的实现原理

In the blog Step by Step to create CDS view through SmartTemplate + WebIDE and Create a CRM Service Order Fiori application within a couple of minutes we get an Fiori application generated which needs several fine-tuning on appearance. For example, the status field is by default rendered as a pure input field with technical status code like“OPEN”,“PROC”displayed. It is better to render it as a drop down list with human readable text like“Open”,“In process”displayed as drop down list item.

I searched in SCN and could not find a working solution for it, so I spent some time for research and would like to share with you here.

Step1 Create a simple CDS view to hold status code and status description

@AbapCatalog.sqlViewName: 'zstatusfixed'
@AbapCatalog.compiler.compareFilter: true
@AccessControl.authorizationCheck: #CHECK
@EndUserText.label: 'fixed value'
define view Z_C_Status_Fixedvalue as select from zstatus_fixedval {
   @EndUserText.label: 'status key for fixed value'
   key zstatus_fixedval.status_code,
   @EndUserText.label: 'status description for fixed value'
   zstatus_fixedval.status_text
}

Previewed as below:

Here below is the table definition on top of which the CDS view above is created.

For demonstration purpose I create a Z table and only inserted three status items:

Step2 link the status field to the CDS view created in previous step

I have defined the consumption view Z_C_Service_Order_View with below source code:

define view Z_C_Service_Order_View as select from Z_i_Order_View
...
@UI.identification: [{ position: 50} ]
@Consumption.valueHelp: '_statusfixedvalue'
@ObjectModel: {foreignKey.association: '_statusfixedvalue', mandatory: true}
Z_i_Order_View.txt04,

Where does the definition of“_statusfixedvalue”come from?
It is defined in view Z_i_Over_View:


define view Z_i_Over_View as select from XXXX
association [0..1] to Z_C_Status_Fixedvalue as _statusfixedvalue
  on  $projection.txt04 = _statusfixedvalue.status_code
{
   ...
   _status_text.txt04,
  ...
   @ObjectModel.association.type: #TO_COMPOSITION_CHILD
   _statusfixedvalue
}

So far the work on CDS side is done.

Step3 create necessary annotation in ABAP code

Prerequisite: you should first create a project using tcode SEGW and then include your CDS consumption view via the context menu as below:

Redefine method DEFINE of your MPC_EXT class with following source code:

    super->define( ).
    DATA lo_annotation TYPE REF TO /iwbep/if_mgw_odata_annotation.
    DATA  lo_property TYPE REF TO /iwbep/if_mgw_odata_property.
    DATA  lo_entity_set TYPE REF TO /iwbep/if_mgw_odata_entity_set.
    lo_entity_set = model->get_entity_set('Z_C_Service_Order_View').
    lo_annotation = lo_entity_set->create_annotation('sap').
    lo_annotation->add(iv_key = 'semantics' iv_value = 'fixed-values').
    DATA(lo_entitytype) = model->get_entity_type('Z_C_Service_Order_ViewType').
    lo_entitytype->set_is_value_list(abap_true).
    data(lo_txt_property) = model->get_entity_type('Z_C_Service_Order_ViewType')->get_property('txt04').
    lo_txt_property->set_value_list(/iwbep/if_mgw_odata_property=>gcs_value_list_type_property-fixed_values).
    data(lo_text_anno) = lo_txt_property->/iwbep/if_mgw_odata_annotatabl~create_annotation('sap').
    lo_text_anno->add(iv_key = 'text' iv_value = 'to_statusfixedvalue/status_text').
    lo_txt_property = model->get_entity_type('Z_C_Status_FixedvalueType')->get_property('status_code').
    lo_txt_property->set_value_list(/iwbep/if_mgw_odata_property=>gcs_value_list_type_property-fixed_values).
    lo_text_anno = lo_txt_property->/iwbep/if_mgw_odata_annotatabl~create_annotation('sap').
    lo_text_anno->add(iv_key = 'text' iv_value = 'status_text').

Note: those ABAP code is necessary, or else you will only get an ugly drop down list: only status code is displayed:

Final result

In display mode and in edit mode, the status description is displayed:
