ABAP to XML

Former Member — Mon, 11 Oct 2010 10:56:58 GMT

Hi All,

I went throught many of the threads n sdn... i have one doubt... i have to generate an Hierarchical XML from ABAP..

which has more than one node.

in this case., should i create more than one data type/structure????

XML will look something like this:

<!~~//First UN~~>

<!~~//3rd UN~~>

Hi,

check the programs BCCIIXMLT1-BCCIIXMLT4. you will get some idea on the ABAP-XML and XML-ABAP conversion.

Hi Poonam Naik,

creation of XML from ABAP can be done through the call transformation method.

types: begin of str,
  mystr type string,
  end of str.
  data: it_data type standard table of str,
        wa type str.

"" write the 

call transformation id
source root =  wa_convert_data "having a single row of data.
result xml   wa-mystr "output in the format .


CALL FUNCTION 'GUI_DOWNLOAD'
  EXPORTING
*   BIN_FILESIZE                    =
    filename                        = 'C:\test_xml'  "file location
  FILETYPE                        = 'ASC
     tables
    data_tab                        = it_data  " xml format data.

"call transformation id

source root = wa_convert_data "having a single row of data.

result xml wa-mystr "output in the format ."

ID => transformation created ??

waht is wa_convert_data???

wa_mystr of what type?

right now i have created a transformation..... and also a class..... which does this saving in aplication server ....

but its not able to access the node... some problem in call transforamtion.

call transformation ZEWM_DEV_I_004_TRANSFORMATION

source root = it_final => this internal table is having all the abap data whihc i want to convert to XML....

result xml lif_doc.
