does it have to be a class? There is a keyword NUMOFCHARS or STRLEN to determine this.

Hi Ravi,

you can use the STRLEN. i don't think we need the class for that.

you will get direcly the no. of charectes in the string.

try below.

data: lv_string type string.
data: lv_char type i.

lv_char = STRLEN(lv_sti).

hope it helps you.

Regards!

Hi Ravi,

You can use the FM SWA_STRINGLENGTH_GET

data: lv_length type SWAEXPDEF-ELEMLENGTH,
                 lv_string type string.

      CALL FUNCTION 'SWA_STRINGLENGTH_GET'
        EXPORTING
          expression                 =   lv_string
*         CONDENSE_NO_GAPS           =
*         CONDENSE                   =
*         WITH_LEADING_BLANKS        =
*       IMPORTING
         LENGTH                     = lv_length
*         EX_MODIFY_EXPRESSION       =
                .

hope it helps you

Regards!
