Hi All,

I am getting unicode error while we are upgrading from 4.6 to ECC 6. 0 in below statement.

data: a(100).

b is a deep structure that has all data type field like C,N,D.

Move a to b..

Thanks

Use field symbols.

Field-Symobol <fs> type c.

assign a to <fs> casting.

Move <fs> to b.

You will now have to move the data field by field like this:

b-field1 = a+0(10).

b-field2 = a+10(5).

etc.

Hi Mohit, Try this way.


MOVE-CORRESPONDING a to b.

Thanks Venkat.O

Hi,

have to move field wise then there won't be any error.

in unicode programs inorder to move data directly we should have both the source and target system to be of same structure then only it will work.

assign a to the field of b. dont assign directly.

b-f1 = a. or

b-f1 =a+0(10).

b-f2 = a+11(15). etc

by the way, have you enabled unicode check in the program attributes?

venkat, this wont work as a is not a structure.

Hi, Sorry for that . He can try this way.


REPORT ztest_program.
DATA a(100).
DATA:BEGIN OF b,
      a(100),
      str1 TYPE string,
      num1 TYPE num,
      mara TYPE TABLE OF mara,
     END OF b.
a = 'Venkat'.
MOVE a to b-a.

WRITE: b-a.

Thanks Venkat.O

Then give a a structure....

Or move substrings.

hi rainer,

what else are we suggesting in the thread

Re: unicode error

rainer_hbenthal — Thu, 01 Oct 2009 06:42:23 GMT

At the time when opening this issued there was only 1 reply. So what are you complaining for?

Hi,

I don't know in which field's of target structure i have to move source field.so i am not able to move one by one from source to target.

Thanks

so us the declaration of that structure B

Re: unicode error

Former Member — Thu, 01 Oct 2009 07:37:16 GMT

why dont u use field symbols.

You did move the data field A to B previous to upgrade, right? So you should know where to move the source data into target field.

For example:

b has 3 fields.

b1 = 10 char.

b2 = 3 char.

b3 = 1 char.

So the first 13 characters of A were moved to the first 3 fields of B. And that's exactly what you have to do know, field by field.

If it has to be a bit more dynamic, you should determine all the fields of structure B at run time, and per field determine the offset and length that has to be move from A to B.

maybe the following helps:


CALL METHOD cl_abap_container_utilities=>read_container_c
  EXPORTING
      im_container = a
  IMPORTING
      ex_value = b.

Hi ,

Development in 4.6 was done by some other vendor and also this is not documented anywhere that which field's of target structure get populated from source.

Thanks

I believe u need to transfer the data from A to a structure splitting the string of A and moving field by field, something like this:

DATA: A(100).

DATA: MY_STRUCT TYPE REF TO CL_ABAP_STRUCTDESCR.

data: v_len    type i,
      v_offset type i.

DATA: BEGIN OF B,
        B1(10),
        B2 TYPE I,
        B3(5),
      END OF B.

DATA: W TYPE ABAP_COMPDESCR.

FIELD-SYMBOLS <fs> type any.


a(10)   = 'Bye Bye'.
a+10(4) = '10'.
a+14(5) = 'OK'.


MY_STRUCT ?= CL_ABAP_STRUCTDESCR=>DESCRIBE_BY_DATA( B ).

LOOP AT MY_STRUCT->COMPONENTS INTO W.

  v_len = w-length.

  if w-type_kind = 'C'.
    v_len = v_len / CL_ABAP_CHAR_UTILITIES=>CHARSIZE.
  endif.

  ASSIGN COMPONENT w-name of STRUCTURE b to <fs>.

  move a+v_offset(v_len) to <fs>.

  v_offset = v_offset + v_len.

ENDLOOP.

write: b-b1, / b-b2, / b-b3.
