Adding leading and trailing spaces while converting string from ABAP to XML

Madhurivs23 — Thu, 03 May 2012 06:34:32 GMT

Hello All,

I am passing data in internal table from abap to XML using IF_IXML interface.

For one string field I want to have leading and trailing spaces as it is to come in the XML converted form. But its not coming. Will anybody suggest a solution for this?

I checked the call transformation. but its not useful for this purpose.

Thanks and regards,

MAdhuri S

Can you try adding spaces to the string and add it ? For adding 5 spaces:

DATA: L_S(5),

S TYPE I.

S = 5

CONCATENATE '' STRING '' INTO ROW_STRING

SEPARATED BY L_S(S).

Hello Shambu,

I am able to generated that string with leading and trailing spaces in ABAP. Its not the issue. but if I move that to the XML. Its removing those spaces.

Hello Krupa,

i checked the above threads. But it doesnt mentioned anywhere to have leading and trailing spaces.

My string is " 3C3Z 6731AA ". and I want to have it same in XML format with leading and trailing spaces.

Hi All,

I am generating XML file using iXML interface. while passing one string, I want to keep leading and trailing spaces as it is while passing it to XML file.

How should I do that?

Thanks and regards,
