SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE: ADDITIONAL_PARAMETERS contains Blanks

Former Member — Wed, 16 Jul 2008 12:46:33 GMT

Hi to all,

I want to start a shell-script with SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE on Linux. Therefor I have maintained a command with SM69.

I have to fill ADDITIONAL_PARAMETERS with a list of parameters which are passed to the shell-script. Unfortunately some parameters contains blanks, such as a material description.

How do I have to call SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE so that a parameter "AA BB" or "CC DD" conserves as one parameter when it is passed to the shell-script and the shell-script can recognize these as one parameter and not as two or more.

Maybe someone has a suggestion for another solution to handle this problem.

Thanks in advance

Karl-Wilhelm

We used The following Code To Save a File on Unix Server.

Please check whether its useful or not.

ls_path = '/dma/livis/IRENT/'.
  CONCATENATE ls_path ls_file INTO ls_path.

  OPEN DATASET ls_path IN BINARY MODE  FOR OUTPUT.
  TRANSFER w_iox  TO ls_path.
  CLOSE DATASET ls_path.

  ls_dir = '/dma/livis/IRENT/'.

  CALL FUNCTION 'SUBST_GET_FILE_LIST'
    EXPORTING
      dirname      = ls_dir
      filenm       = '*.*'
    TABLES
      file_list    = lt_files
    EXCEPTIONS
      access_error = 1
      OTHERS       = 2.

Hi,

thanks for the answer. But thats doesn't match my problem. What I want is to start a shell-script with parameter whereas some parameters might include one or more blanks. Like for examples a script with only one parameter:

shell-script 'this is a parameter'

What I found out while testing with SM49 is, when I put the parameter into apostrophe than the parameter is passed as a single parameter to the script. But SM49 elsewell SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE condense more than blank to only one blank. And the apostrophe remain in the parameter.

SM49:

shell-script 'This   is a parameter'

The shell-script gets the parameter 'This is a parameter' , whereas the apostrophe ' and the start and at the end is part of the parameter.

Using the function modules SXPG_RFCDEST_OPEN_INT, SAPXPG_START_XPG and SAPXPG_END_XPG instead of SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE solves the problem of condensing the blanks to one blank. But the apostrophe is still part of the parameter. And I have to consider that the apostrophe might be originally part of the parameter.

And I have to solve this problem.
