reg Unicode: type convertion from byte and string charecter processing

Former Member — Thu, 21 Sep 2006 11:03:59 GMT

Hi all,

I currently working on MM module where programs to be checked Unicode enabled in new versions 6.10 relase .

I have a problem in one of the program ..where the error is above mentioned type conversion is no longer possible.

the program :

LOOP AT pdf INTO wa_pdf.

TRANSLATE wa_pdf USING ' ~'.

CONCATENATE buffer wa_pdf INTO buffer.

ENDLOOP.

TRANSLATE buffer USING '~ '.

DO.

--> APPEND buffer TO t_pdf .error message

SHIFT buffer LEFT BY 255 PLACES.

IF buffer IS INITIAL.

EXIT.

ENDIF.

the fields are declared as

pdf TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF tline,

wa_pdf LIKE LINE OF pdf,

buffer TYPE string,

t_pdf TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF solix.

My question is how to make convertion using other logic.

any help is highly appreciated .

regards,

Amarnath Reddy

REPORT ZSRIM_TEMP23.

DATA : PDF TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF TLINE,

WA_PDF LIKE LINE OF PDF,

BUFFER TYPE STRING,

T_PDF TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF SOLIX.

LOOP AT PDF INTO WA_PDF.

TRANSLATE WA_PDF USING ' ~'.

CONCATENATE BUFFER WA_PDF INTO BUFFER.

ENDLOOP.

TRANSLATE BUFFER USING '~ '.

DO.

*--> APPEND buffer TO t_pdf .error message

SHIFT BUFFER LEFT BY 255 PLACES.

IF BUFFER IS INITIAL.

EXIT.

ENDIF.

ENDDO.

I copied your code in my sap system,but i am not getting any ERROR.can you please give the Error description along with the code.

Hi Sridar,

error message was t_pdf and buffer are not mutually convertable in unicode as t_pdf is of type solix and solix contains raw data type of binary data which is of byte string and buffer is having a string which is character string.

I think there is a structure mismatch .

Try the following code:

Declare the following variables.

data: ls_pdf type solix,

ls_char(255) type c.

field-symbols: <fs> type any.

Add this code instead of 'append buffer to t_pdf in ur code:

ls_char = buffer.

assign ls_char to <fs> casting type x.

ls_pdf-line = <fs>.

append ls_pdf to t_pdf.

use like,

FIELD-SYMBOLS: <cf> TYPE C.

ASSIGN BUFFER TO <cf> CASTING.

T_PDF = <CF>.

I guess in UNICODE enabled system, data transferring between structures is possible only when both the structures are same or both have only character format fields.

To avoid the error, i think we need to explicitly move field by field when the structure alters.
