I was expecting this to be a new feature of the Adhoc Template but it doesn't seem to offer this feature out of the box and i found no mention of it in the User/Admin Guides. Does anybody else have seen this Demo and was able to get this running or knows how you could implement this yourself?
I wasn't in Berlin so I am not certain this covers it. But it could it be something like the last part of this tutorial where you can add the query/system to the end of the URL of the adhoc template?
thanks for your reply. Yes i guess that you would have to use the global script variables XTYPE, XSYSTEM and XQUERY in some way to achieve it. However in the demo shown at TechED they were starting the application without an assigned DataSource and had a search box where you could enter a name of a Query and a list of Queries matching that name appeared. You could then choose which one you want as a Datascource for your application.
When i try to get an application running without an assigned DataSource i get an error message and even if i would get it to start without a DataSource i'm not sure how you can create a search box that will bring you a list of Queries from your BW System as a result set.
This feature did look quite nice in the demo and i would like to add it in one of my applications. So i'm realy interested in how SAP did it.
Looking back at my notes from TechEd LV, that query search for the ad hoc template is planned for Design Studio 1.4 release SP01, which is coming soon per http://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/1760372
thanks for that information. They mentioned that some features will not be available with the 1.4 but will be coming with the next SPs. I didn't catch that the query search feature is one of them.
Then i guess i just have to be a little more patient.
