CONSUMING SAP NETWEAVER GATEWAY SERVICES

FROM WINDOWS PHONE 7 APPLICATIONS

SAP NetWeaver Gateway technology provides a simple way to interact with SAP applications through

variety of devices, environments and platforms based on market standards. The framework enables

development of innovative, people-centric solutions that bring the power of SAP business software into

new experiences, such as: social networking and collaboration environments; mobile and tablet devices;

and rich internet applications. The framework supports rapid innovation while ensuring security, integrity,

management and optimized maintenance of the core SAP systems. Completely flexible, the software offers

connectivity to SAP applications using any programming language or model without the need for SAP

knowledge by taking advantage of REST services and OData/ATOM protocols.

This guide provides information on how to consume SAP NetWeaver Gateway services from Windows

Phone 7 applications based on the following scenario:

The user wants to fly from New York to San Francisco.

He goes online and searches for the different flights available. He enters his search parameters: city of

origin, destination city, departure date, and arrival date (Function Import).

From the SAP NetWeaver Gateway, he receives the information for the option(s) that meet(s) his search

parameters (Get Function).

He can now select the one that suits him the most and book his flight (Create Function).

The links to access the service document and metadata document are provided the in table below.

SAP Client no need to specify client if connecting to the default client.

Example:

http://:/sap/opu/sdata/iwfnd/RMTSAMPLEFLIGHT?sap-client=100

To obtain information on the selected service (its properties, function imports, associations, etc.), refer to

Appendix 1, were we show the Metadata description of the RMTSAMPLEFLIGHT service.

Building a WP7 Application

Function Import Example

To get a list of the available flights, based on filter criteria, trigger the GetAvailableFlights function import

with cityFrom, cityTo, fromDate and toDate parameters. The response will contain a list of flights that meet

the criteria.

Note: For more information on Function Import (also called Service Operation), refer to OData

documentation athttp://www.odata.org/developers/protocols/uri-conventionsunder the Addressing

Service Operations section.

Refer to the code snippet below for details on how to do it from a WP7 application:

1. Declare the DataServiceContext object (in this case RMTSAMPLEFLIGHT) in the scope of the class, since it

is used in more than one method.

privateRMTSAMPLEFLIGHT service;

2. Define an observable collection for flights that you can bind in the Application UI.

privateObservableCollection _Flights;

publicObservableCollection Flights

{

get { return _Flights; }

privateset

{

_Flights = value;

NotifyPropertyChanged("Flights");

}

}

3. Use the following method for executing a Function Import that returns a collection of flights.

privatestaticvoid GetAvailableFlights()

{

4. Connect to the desired service.

string serviceUrl ="http://:/sap/opu/sdata/iwfnd/RMTSAMPLEFLIGHT/";

service = newRMTSAMPLEFLIGHT(newUri(serviceUrl));

5. Enter the service credentials.

service.Credentials = newNetworkCredential(username, password);

6. Create the Function Import.

a) Enter the name for the Function Import you want to call.

string functionImportName = "GetAvailableFlights";

b) Set the values for all Function Import parameters and construct the URL.
http://www.odata.org/developers/protocols/uri-conventionshttp://www.odata.org/developers/protocols/uri-conventionshttp://www.odata.org/developers/protocols/uri-conventionshttp://www.odata.org/developers/protocols/uri-conventions

string cityFrom = HttpUtility.UrlEncode("NEW YORK");

string cityTo = HttpUtility.UrlEncode("SAN FRANCISCO");

StringBuilder parameters = newStringBuilder();

parameters.AppendFormat(String.Format("cityfrom={0}&", cityFrom));

parameters.AppendFormat(String.Format("cityto={0}&", cityTo));

parameters.AppendFormat("fromdate=20110105&");

parameters.AppendFormat("todate=20110728");

string relativeUri = functionImportName + "?" + parameters.ToString();

Uri uri = newUri(relativeUri, UriKind.Relative);

c) Execute the asynchronous call to the Function Import and define which method handles the return

from the asynchronous call.

service.BeginExecute(uri,OnRetrievedFlights,service);

7. Handle the return from the asynchronous request.

privatevoid OnRetrievedFlights(IAsyncResult result)

{ // Use the Dispatcher to ensure that the

// asynchronous call returns in the correct thread.

Deployment.Current.Dispatcher.BeginInvoke(() =>

{

try{

// Get the context from the result.

service = result.AsyncState asRMTSAMPLEFLIGHT;

// Get the end result of the load operation.

var response = service.EndExecute(result);

// Add each flight in the response to the Flights Observable Collection

foreach (var flight in response){

this.Flights.Add(flight);

}

}

catch (Exception ex)

{

// Handle exception

}}

);

}

Read Example

To read the carrier details, you must call the CarrierCollection using the Carrier ID parameter.

Refer to the code snippet below for details on how to do it from a WP7 application:




2. Define an observable collection for Carriers that you can bind in the Application UI.

privateObservableCollection _Carriers;

publicObservableCollection Carriers

{

get { return _Carriers; }

privateset

{

_Carriers = value;

NotifyPropertyChanged("Carriers");}

}

1. Use the following method for getting Carrier information from the carrierId parameter.

privatestaticvoid GetCarrierByID()

{

2. Specify the carrierId parameter for which we want to receive information.

string carrierId = "AA"; //American Airlines


string serviceUrl =

"http://:/sap/opu/sdata/iwfnd/RMTSAMPLEFLIGHT/";

service = newRMTSAMPLEFLIGHT(newUri(serviceUrl));



5. To retrieve the carrier with matching carrier id, create the query below.

var carrier = (fromCarrier c in service.CarrierCollection

where c.carrid == carrierId

select c;

6. Define a delegate that will handle the return from the asynchronous execution of the query.

collection.LoadCompleted += (sender, e) =>

{

if (e.Error == null) // In case of successful loading

{

// get the collection that contains all loaded Carriers

var _binding = sender asDataServiceCollection;

// Load all pages before binding.

if (_binding.Continuation != null)

{

_binding.LoadNextPartialSetAsync();

}

else// Load is completed - ready to be bound


12/24

Copyright/Trademark

{

this.Carriers = _binding;

}

}

else// In case of failure to load

{

// Handle error

}};

7. Execute the asynchronous request to load the collection with items that match the query.

collection.LoadAsync(query);

Create Example

To book a flight, trigger an HTTP POST method on the Booking Collection (with the Booking details in the

request body). Check for the HTTP response code. If the response code is 201, then the HTTP-POST is

successful. The response contains the newly created Booking ID in the bookidfield, as well as the entire

information that was part of the request body.

Refer to the code snippet below for details on how to invoke a create request from a WP7 application:




2. Use the following method for booking a flight.

privatestaticvoid CreateFlightBooking()

13/24

Copyright/Trademark

3. Create the new Booking item.

Booking booking = newBooking()

{

carrid = "AA",

connid = "0017",

fldate = Convert.ToDateTime("2011-12-21T00:00:00"),

bookid = String.Empty,

CUSTOMID = "00004617",

CUSTTYPE = "P",

WUNIT = "KG",

LUGGWEIGHT = (Decimal)14.4000,

CLASS = "Y",

FORCURAM = (Decimal)879.82,

FORCURKEY = "USD",

LOCCURAM = (Decimal)803.58,

LOCCURKEY = "USD",

ORDER_DATE = Convert.ToDateTime("2011-05-22T00:00:00"),

COUNTER = "00000000",

AGENCYNUM = "00000325",

PASSNAME = "Joe Smith",

PASSFORM = "1234567",

PASSBIRTH = Convert.ToDateTime("1990-10-10")

};


string serviceUrl =


service = new RMTSAMPLEFLIGHT(newUri(serviceUrl));



6. Add request headers that will be added when the request to the service is executed. Without the

headers, the HTTP POST request will fail.

service.SendingRequest += (sender, e) =>{

e.RequestHeaders["X-Requested-With"] = "XMLHttpRequest";

};

7. Add the new Booking item to the service.

Note: The changes are made only in the client side the service is not aware of these changes.

service.AddToBookingCollection(booking);


14/24

Copyright/Trademark

8. Save all changes made to the service asynchronously and declare the method that handles the return

from the asynchronous save operation

service.BeginSaveChanges(OnSaveCompleted, service);

9. Define the method that handles the return from the asynchronous Save operation

privatevoid OnSaveCompleted(IAsyncResult result){

// Use the Dispatcher to ensure that the

// asynchronous call returns in the correct thread.

Deployment.Current.Dispatcher.BeginInvoke(() =>

{

try

{

// Get the context from the result.

service = result.AsyncState asRMTSAMPLEFLIGHT;

// Get the end result of the load operation.

DataServiceResponse response = service.EndSaveChanges(result);

int i = 0;

foreach (ChangeOperationResponse change in response){

if (change.Error != null){

var changeResult = string.Format("Change {0} error: {1}\n", i,

change.Error.Message);MessageBox.Show(changeResult);

}

elseif (change.StatusCode != 201)

{

// Handle error

}

else

{// Handle successful save

}

i++;

}

}

catch (Exception ex)

{

// Handle Exception

}

}

);

}


15/24

Creation of Request Body for Create Method:

The request body can be easily created by looking at the tags in the collections metadata. For example, the

metadata for Booking Collection provides information about the various fields (tags) that are needed for

creating a booking:
