split at '##' into table ........ not working

Former Member — Thu, 14 May 2009 23:08:37 GMT

hi experts,

i have a problem with a split, im trying to split a string into a substring with this '##' as break.

i have this data for example:

msg = 'abcdefg hijk##lmn opq'

and i do this

split msg at '##' into table msg_table.

and in msg_table i have one row with 'abcdefg hijk##lmn opq' when i should have 2 rows.

but if i use

split msg at space into table msg_table.

i have 3 rows as a result.

i tried using a single '#' but it doesnt work neither. Is there a problem using #s as breaks???????

thx in advance.

Hi,

It should work try like this

TYPES : BEGIN OF ty_test,

text(20),

END OF ty_test.

DATA : t_test TYPE TABLE OF ty_test WITH HEADER LINE,

str(1000).

str = 'abcdefg hijk##lmn opq' .

SPLIT str AT '##' INTO TABLE t_test.

LOOP AT t_test.

WRITE : /10 t_test-text.

ENDLOOP.

I got output

abcdefg hijk

lmn opq

HI,

Try this way...

DATA : tab TYPE C value CL_ABAP_CHAR_UTILITIES=>HORIZONTAL_TAB.

split msg at tab into table msg_table.

try:

data message TYPE string VALUE 'abcdefg hijk##lmn opq'.

data msg_table TYPE TABLE OF string.

SPLIT message AT '##' INTO TABLE msg_table.

it works!

i think wat the problem is....

im getting the string from a function SO_OBJECT_READ that returns a table OBJCONT that is type table of SOLI...

the thing is that this function returns lines of strings but in each string could be '##' that represent line jump... but it looks like it isnt the actuals. ## ...

heres the code...

data: msg_tabla TYPE TABLE OF string.

data: msg_tabla_aux TYPE TABLE OF string.

data: msg_aux type string.

LOOP

CALL FUNCTION 'SO_OBJECT_READ'

EXPORTING

FILTER =

folder_id = fold_id

FORWARDER =

object_id = obj_id

TABLES

OBJCONT = it_OBJCONT

clear msg_aux.

clear msg_tabla_aux.

clear str.

in case it has more than 1 line i concatenate

loop at it_OBJCONT into gwa_IT_OBJCONT .

WRITE: 'mensaje: ', gwa_IT_OBJCONT-LINE.

CONCATENATE msg_aux gwa_IT_OBJCONT-LINE into msg_aux.

ENDLOOP.

SPLIT msg_aux_aux AT '##' INTO TABLE msg_tabla_aux.

append msg_tabla_aux to msg_tabla.

ENDLOOP

in the table msg_tabla should appear all the messages

if anyone can help me out .. ill really apreciate it.

thx in advance.
