SAP NetWeaver Development Infrastructure (NWDI) is an enterprise-scale Java development platform that provides developers with a well-organized, comprehensive approach and toolset to address the complex challenges of Java development, such as locating source code versions, finding and tracking foreign libraries, eliminating discrepancies between local and central environments, and managing conflicts when multiple developers work on the same object at the same time. The previous installment of this two-part article series introduced the key players in the NWDI architecture and essential NWDI concepts. This article shows you how to apply these concepts by walking you through the NWDI-enabled Java development process.
