former_member185978 — Thu, 14 Aug 2014 22:01:26 GMT

HI Experts,

Standard Long text is capturing using CALL METHOD EDITOR->GET_TEXT_AS_STREAM
but not working for Custom Long text – Only changes

Here is the Issue:

1) Created Custom Long text in TAB. --> Good
2) Entered few lines in custom Long text --> Good
Click on Standard Tab , Leaving Custom tab and Custom Long text-->Good
4) In PAI of Custom Tab – Changes captured using CALL METHOD 1 ( See below Code 1)--> Good
5) Entered few lines in Standard Long text in Standard Tab -->Good
6) Click another Standard Tab
7) In PAI of Standard Tab – Changes captured using CALL MEHTOD 2 ( See Below Code 2)-->Good
😎 Come back to Standard Tab / Standard Long Text , Enter few more lines.
9) Change the Tab , IN PAI of Standard Tab/Standard Text , Changes Captured using CALL METHOD2 ( See Below CODE 3) --> Good
10) Go to Custom Tab , Custom Long text , Entered few more lines--> Good
11) Click on any other tab, Triggered again PAI of Custom tab / Custom Long text using Call Method1 ( See Below Code 4) -->Good triggered PAI same CALL METHOD TEXT_EDITOR1->GET_TEXT_AS_STREAM.
12) But additional lines are not captured , saying ZERO LINES in Internal Table and IF_MODIFIED = NO -->Issues lies here.

CODE1 ( Custom Long text entry capturing – First Few Lines )

Custom Long text Entries are stored in LS_OUTTAB-TEXT first time when entered few lines and LV_MOD is 1.

PAI of Custom tab

CALL METHOD TEXT_EDITOR1->GET_TEXT_AS_STREAM
        EXPORTING

          IS_MODIFIED            = LV_MOD ( Value 1 , Modified )
        EXCEPTIONS
          ERROR_DP               = 1
          ERROR_CNTL_CALL_METHOD = 2
          OTHERS                 = 3

CODE2 ( Standard Long Text Entry Capturing – First Few Lines )

Standard Long text Entries are stored in SELECTED_TEXT first time when entered few lines and FLAG_MODIFIED is 1.

PAI of Standard tab

   CALL METHOD EDITOR->GET_TEXT_AS_STREAM
      EXPORTING
        ONLY_WHEN_MODIFIED = YTRUE ( Value 1 , Modified )

      IMPORTING
        TEXT                               = SELECTED_TEXT ( FIlled with Lines entered in standard long text )
        IS_MODIFIED        = FLAG_MODIFIED.

CODE 3 ( Standard Long Text Entry Capturing – Second time Few Lines )

Standard Long text Entries are stored in SELECTED_TEXT second time when entered few lines and FLAG_MODIFIED is 1.

PAI of Standard tab

        IS_MODIFIED        = FLAG_MODIFIED. ( Value 1 , Modified )

CODE4 ( Custom Long text entry capturing – Second Time Few Lines )

        IMPORTING
          TEXT                                       = LS_OUTTAB-TEXT ( ZERO ENTRIES )
          IS_MODIFIED            = LV_MOD   ( NOT MODIFIED Flag )
        EXCEPTIONS
          ERROR_DP               = 1
          ERROR_CNTL_CALL_METHOD = 2

Hi,

I have never had the chance to use cl_gui_textedit with ONLY_WHEN_MODIFIED but what

exactly are you trying to achieve ?

Regards.

former_member185978 — Fri, 15 Aug 2014 14:06:09 GMT

Excellent Eitan,

Here is what I am trying to Achieve.

In Create Notification IW21 , They need 5 Long Text in Custom Tab ( Say Tab Name is MBR ).

TAB1 NOTIFICATION Standard Information , TAB2 REFERENCE OBJ , TAB 3 MalFunction , Breakdown Standard one...... TAB 7 ( Custom Tab ).

In Custom Tab , I added 5 LONG TEXT ( its 5 WHY Concept ).

When the User enters data in 5 Long text , it should store long text along with Notification number when save.

But Notification number will be generated @ the time of SAVE , but before that its just shows as

%0000000001 ( and Number will be generated 1000065479) at Save.

How to achive this .

I did this:

Added 5 Custom Container. and In PBO / PAI

PROCESS BEFORE OUTPUT.
MODULE STATUS_0100.
PROCESS AFTER INPUT.
MODULE USER_COMMAND_0100.

IN PBO

CREATE OBJECT TEXT_EDITOR1 , CREATE OBJECT TEXT_EDITOR2, CREATE OBJECT TEXT_EDITOR3 like wise 5

CALL METHOD TEXT_EDITOR1->SET_TEXT_AS_R3TABLE , CALL METHOD TEXT_EDITOR2->SET_TEXT_AS_R3TABLE .. Like wise 5 , So when the user Click on Custom Tab ( MBR ).

It give 5 Long text.

When he click tab1 or tab2 or tab3 .. and again tab MBR , still data is available.

How to store this data for future retrival ( IW22 or IW23 ) ?

Its working fine when I enter first time and goes here and there and finall save .

IN SAVE BADI , I imported the Long text and created Standard Text SO10 with Notification Number with LONG1 , LONG2 .. means 1000065479LONG1 as standard text.

But not working when I entered first time and go to tab1 and tab2 and then to MBR tab and added few more lines , its not exporting full lines and in IMPORT ( SAVE BADI ) giving ZERO Lines.

Please help and thanks for your quick response.

Hi,

I have not tried it .

It is my understanding that he user wants to update the text.

At PBO:

Use read_text function and fill the cl_gui_textedit .

The user can update the text .

At PAI :

GET_TEXT_AS_STREAM do not use ONLY_WHEN_MODIFIED .

Is it ok to do the save now ? if not

Export....

in BADI .

Import....

Use save_text function .

Regards.

Hi , Thanks

I am doing the same. But if you see my initial Question point 12 is the issue.

I am doing the same. In PAI , I am exporting the values and In Save BADI - I am importing long text and then using Notification number and saving it as save text ( SO10 ).

But read point 12

EXPORTING is good when I enter 1st time in that Long text and when I change the TAB MBR to TAB1 its exporting correctly

But when I come back to TAB MBR again and enter few more lines. Its not exporting those few more lines and in SAVE BADI, you will end up importing ZERO Line.

Please check my Point 1 to 12 , Issue is in Point 12.

Thanks and Regards,

Bala M

Hi,

In this article program I use cl_gui_textedit .

I do not use parameter ONLY_WHEN_MODIFIED see if this is good for you .

I will try to play with ONLY_WHEN_MODIFIED next week it is intriguing....

only_when_modified = '1'

Re: Issue with Capturing Long text using CALL METHOD EDITOR->GET_TEXT_AS_STREAM

former_member185978 — Fri, 15 Aug 2014 20:34:08 GMT

HI ,

Yes I did the same and working fine.

Main problem is when you enter text first time ( with only_when_modified = '1' and tried with 0 also ) it is good. I am getting long text into internal table and can do my task.

BUT WHEN I ENTER TEXT AND MOVE TO SOME OTHER TAB AND COMES BACK TO THIS TAB AND THEN ADD SOME MORE ENTRIES IN THE SAME LONG TEXT ..ITS NOT READING INTO ITAB USING THIS METHOD.

MEANS :

First time LONG TEXT Entry :

ABCD ..

now Switch tab and come back to same tab again and then

ABCD ( already exists )

EFGH ( New lines added )

IJKL MNOP ( new lines added )

Now that Method ( with 1 or 0 or comment ) is not considering anytext into returning internal table .

Now whatz next.

Bala M

Hi,

The program included is my attempt to imitate your development on a smaller scale.

The program use TABSTRIP with 4 tabs .

On PAI of each strip I am using: FORM textedit_get .

And I am geting the full data also additions (As I understand it) ..

Please play with this .

Regards.
