Use

An Instance ID is a key that uniquely identifies an instance of a User Interface Building Block (UIBB).

An Instance ID makes it possible for you to use UIBBs with the same configuration name on several screens in your application, without having to create separate configurations for each one. For example, assume that you have the same UIBB on an initial screen and also on a main screen. You can provide the UIBBs with the same configuration name and, at the same time, provide them with separate Instance IDs to ensure that they can be configured separately during design time or edited separately during runtime.

The UIBB instance key is composed of the following components:

• Component Name
• Configuration ID
• Instance ID

For Generic User Interface Building Blocks (GUIBBs), the Instance ID is passed as a parameter in the INITIALIZE method of the feeder classes.

For freestyle UIBBs, the Instance ID can be fetched using the GET_INSTANCE_ID of the IF_FPM API.
