What this small code does? And how do I do it in Unicode.

Hi.

I got the following code and I really don't know what it does or even why. All I know It's not UC enabled ( since it's uxinf the type x).

I was thinking I might be converting from ascii representation to text or something like that but I'm not that sure.

FORM TRANSLATE_FIELD USING STRING_TRAN

CHANGING STRING1.

DATA: STRING(255),

len1(3) type i,

LEN(3) TYPE I,

NUM(3) TYPE I,

I(3) TYPE I.

DATA: C VALUE 'A',

X TYPE X.

FIELD-SYMBOLS:<fc> type c.

STRING = STRING_TRAN.

len1 = strlen( STRING ).

LEN = 0.

NUM = 0.

while len < len1.

i = STRING+len(3).

move i to x.

assign x to <fc> casting type c.

move <fc> to c.

MOVE C TO STRING1+NUM.

len = len + 3.

NUM = NUM + 1.

endwhile.

ENDFORM. " TRANSLATE_FIELD

Thanks

Hi ,

Display the code in change mode .On top u will see the tab Goto.In this u will see the Attributes.

Click on attributes and it will poen a popup window.In this window at the bottom u will see the 'Unicode checks active' .

You need to check it in order to make this code unicode compatible.

So you want to make this code UC enabled ??

Hi.

I want to make this small code UC enabled. Since there is a move of TYPE x into char this is not OK at the mopment.

the problem is I don't really know or understand how to convert itr to UC enabled program.

You can notice it takes clusters of 3 chars (bytes ?) long and convert them to char.

For example 101 = e 100 = d 099 = c.... 😆 101099101 -> ece .
