ABAP to XML

kiran_k8 — Tue, 29 Dec 2009 05:49:49 GMT

Hi,

I am trying to generate an XML from ABAP using the below



data: function1 type string.
data: begin of itab occurs 0,
      addrnumber like adcp-addrnumber,
      function like adcp-function,
      end of itab.
data:xml_string type xstring,
      result like itab.
select-options: function for (function1)  no intervals visible length 40.
select addrnumber
       function
       into table itab
       from adcp
       where function IN function.
*if itab[] is not initial.
*loop at itab.
*write:/ itab-addrnumber,
*        itab-function.
*endloop.
*endif.

if itab[] is not initial.
CALL TRANSFORMATION zscratchpad
     SOURCE para = itab
     RESULT XML xml_string.
* Display result
* cl_abap_browser=>show_xml( EXPORTING xml_string = xml_string ).
CALL FUNCTION 'SCOL_TRACE_SHOW_XML'
  EXPORTING
    xdoc = xml_string.
endif.

Getting an error "XML Page can't be displayed".Do anyone here have an idea where I am going wrong.

Thanks,

Kiran.

Dear Kiran ,

Instead you can use following FM :

SDIXML_DOM_TO_XML

With these FM I am faceing no Issue.

providing my code for your referance. Hope this will help to you.

I have some questions:

Firstly;Do you want to save XML file to your computer or you wanna just show it?

Secondly; Where does the data come from? Is it from an internal table?

Hi Kiran,

Use this..........

data s_file like RLGRAP-FILENAME.

DATA: itab1 TYPE truxs_t_text_data.

s_file = p_file3.

CALL FUNCTION 'SAP_CONVERT_TO_XLS_FORMAT'

EXPORTING

I_FIELD_SEPERATOR = ';'
I_LINE_HEADER = 'X'

i_filename = s_file

I_APPL_KEEP = ' '

tables

i_tab_sap_data = it_slog[]

CHANGING

I_TAB_CONVERTED_DATA = itab1

CONVERSION_FAILED = 1

OTHERS = 2

Hi,

Thanks.

Using your code I was able to download an XML file but when I double click on the xml file it is not showing any data but actually the internal table has data.

If I am not worng we can use even gui_download to do this just by giving the extension name of the file as .xml.Isn't it ?

Thanks,

Kiran,

Yes, that is true
