This is part 5 of a 6 part series on tools that are available for monitoring or troubleshooting the performance in Web Dynpro ABAP based applications. In this part of the series we dig deeper into the Runtime Analysis tool. We show you how to trigger the Runtime Analysis trace for a Web Dynpro Application as well as how to filter out the surround Web Dynpro ABAP framework code from the trace results. We also show a preview of some of the new Runtime Analysis features that are coming in NetWeaver 7.02.
Will the battle of HTML5 vs. Browser Plug-Ins be like this:

This week we welcome guest co-host Dan McWeeney filling in for Ed. Ed is out of the office because his wife just gave birth to their first child. Since Dan works for Adobe and works in the Adobe Flash/Flex world, we thought it would be the perfect podcast to dive into the hot topic of HTML5 verses Browser Plug-Ins (like Adobe Flash and Microsoft Silverlight).
There has been a lot of debate lately (sparked largely by Apple and their refusal to have the Adobe Flash Plug-in on the iPhone/iPad) about exactly what the future role of Browser Plug-Ins will be given the advances that the next version of the HTML specification promises to bring. In this podcast both Dan and I provide our thoughts on the topic.
Dearest eGheads, we need your show ideas. If you have questions, suggestions, or topic ideas for future episodes, give us a shout here. Enjoy!

28:00 – Apple and their 40 Billion Cash On Hand – Who Will They Buy? (at the time of the podcast recording I forgot that through Pixar, Steve Jobs picked up quite a bit of control at Disney/ABC/Marvel. Perhaps Apple already indirectly has the control in Hollywood I thought they were looking for).
This is part 5 of a 6 part series on User Interface flexibility in the ABAP environment. Part 5 of this series shows the usage of Business Rules Framework Plus (BRF+) – the ABAP based rules engine that is part of NetWeaver 7.0. Specifically we demonstrate the usage of a decision table to add flexiblity to a calculation within our user interface.
In this episode of the ABAP Freak Show, we look at how you can use Portal Eventing for communication between different iViews in the same Portal Page. You can use Portal Eventing to communication between iViews of different technologies running on different backend systems. We will focus in this video on using Portal Eventing in Web Dynpro ABAP, although we will close the example with a demo of Portal Eventing between WDA and BSP. The portal in this video was a NetWeaver 7.02 system and is running the new AJAX portal framework and the signature design.
TechEd is quickly approaching and I thought I would use this episode of the ABAP Freak Show to preview some of the Web Dynpro ABAP related sessions that will presented at TechEd. I preview the following sessions in this video:
