SCMS_BINARY_TO_TEXT with trailing spaces

Hello team ,

My requirement is to use an enhancement to send DME file from SAP to FTP server.

I get the data in format tab_x1 TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF x_linetype1.

When I try to download in desktop using below , I get correct out put and with proper trailing spaces and format.

CALL METHOD cl_gui_frontend_services=>gui_download
    EXPORTING
      bin_filesize         = filesize
      filename             = filename_string
      filetype             = 'BIN'
      NO_AUTH_CHECK        = 'X'
    IMPORTING
      filelength           = after_download_length
    CHANGING
      data_tab             = tab_x
    EXCEPTIONS
      file_not_found       = 91
      file_write_error     = 92
      filesize_not_allowed = 93
      invalid_type         = 95
      no_batch             = 96
      OTHERS               = 97.
  hlp_file_exit = filename.

My requirement is to share the same file to FTP . In order to do this , I have to convert the file data tab_x1 into readable format using FM 'SCMS_BINARY_TO_TEXT'

TYPES: BEGIN OF ty_cont,
line TYPE bapiascont,
END OF ty_cont,

DATA : lt_cont type table of ty_cont

CALL FUNCTION 'SCMS_BINARY_TO_TEXT'
        EXPORTING
          input_length = lv_inlen
        TABLES
          binary_tab   = tab_x1
          text_tab     = lt_cont
        EXCEPTIONS
          failed       = 1
          OTHERS       = 2.

After which data is passed to FTP FM FTP_R3_TO_SERVER

CALL FUNCTION 'FTP_R3_TO_SERVER'
          EXPORTING
            handle         = lv_hdl
            fname          = lv_path
            character_mode = 'C'
          TABLES
            text           = lt_cont
          EXCEPTIONS
            tcpip_error    = 1
            command_error  = 2
            data_error     = 3
            OTHERS         = 4.
        IF sy-subrc <> 0.

ENDIF.

After this I get the file my folder . But my trailing spaces are not reflected. Can anyone please help me and suggest a how to keep the trailing spaces .

If you want to keep the trailing spaces, do the FTP in binary, not in character (CHARACTER_MODE = space).

Hello Rossi ,

Can you please share any code reference. If I pass character_mode = space.

I am not getting any data in the text file.
