The coding is put into the createContent method, which creates the content of the view. The View
wizard creates the body of the method.
Note: In your SAPUI5 coding, refer to the resource bundle with the URL containing the file extension,
for example:
var oBundle = jQuery.sap.resources({
url : "i18n/messagebundle.hdbtextbundle",
locale: sLocale})
var oResourceModel = new sap.ui.model.resource.ResourceModel({
bundleURL : "i18n/messagebundle.hdbtextbundle "})
8. To implement the doIt method for the button's press event, insert the following coding into the controller (in
this example: helloworld.controller.js):
doIt : function(oEvent) { alert(oEvent.getSource().getId() +
"does it!"); }
9. Create a .xsapp and a .xsaccess file.
10. Share, commit, and activate your project to transfer the SAPUI5 application to the SAP HANA repository.
11. To start the UI application on SAP HANA's Web server, use the following URL: ://:/MyApplication/WebContent/
index.html. Replace the placeholders accordingly; MyApplication refers to the name of your project
according to Step 2.
10.2.1 Local Testing of a SAPUI5 Application
This section provides a description how local testing can be performed as an optional step.
If you want to test the SAPUI5 application before you activate your project, you can test it within Eclipse on your
local PC. This local testing is optional. If you perform a local test, note the following:
● The src attribute in the bootstrap tag of the index.html file needs to have a different URL than the src
attribute for execution on SAP HANA's Web server. This can be achieved by manually changing the URL
before submitting to SAP HANA's Web server, or by using a code snippet, that detects if the application runs
locally or not, and sets the URL accordingly.
● If you call a data service in form of a server-side JavaScript or an OData service that resides in the SAP HANA
box, it is necessary to use a URL that points to SAP HANA's Web server. It is usually also necessary to use the
so-called proxy servlet to avoid cross-domain issues. In case of the bootstrap URL, for example, the URL for
local execution differs from the URL for execution on SAP HANA's Web server. For more information, see the
procedure below and the referenced section in the Demo Kit.
For more information, see the Demo Kit - Developer Guide under Testing a SAPUI5 Application.
To perform a local test, proceed as follows:
1. Change the URL set as "src" in the bootstrap tag of the index.html file (see explanation above). To avoid

a manual change before submitting the application, use the following code snippet that detects the context
automatically, in which the application runs, and sets the URL accordingly.
