string to xstring

Former Member — Thu, 14 Sep 2006 07:51:53 GMT

Hello,

I will convert a xstring into a string. But I receive a runtime error (CX_SY_DYN_CALL_ILLEGAL_TYPE).

What did I wrong?


REPORT  Z_TEST.

  DATA:
    STRING(255) TYPE C,
    XSTRING TYPE XSTRING.

    MOVE '1abd19bb' TO XSTRING.

CALL FUNCTION 'HR_KR_XSTRING_TO_STRING'
  EXPORTING
*   FROM_CODEPAGE       = '8500'
    IN_XSTRING          = XSTRING
*   OUT_LEN             =
  IMPORTING
    OUT_STRING          = STRING.

WRITE: / ' STRING: ', STRING.

i think...

problem is the function module is expecting an internal table as parameter and you are sending it a variable.

Now I have a internal table, but the same error...

What can I do? I only will convert a xstring in a string...


REPORT  Z_TEST.

  DATA:
    BEGIN OF OUTPUT OCCURS 0,
      OUT_STRING(255) TYPE C,
      IN_STRING TYPE XSTRING,
    END OF OUTPUT.

    MOVE '1abd19bb' TO OUTPUT-IN_STRING.

CALL FUNCTION 'HR_KR_XSTRING_TO_STRING'
  EXPORTING
*   FROM_CODEPAGE       = '8500'
    IN_XSTRING          = OUTPUT-IN_STRING
*   OUT_LEN             =
  IMPORTING
    OUT_STRING          = OUTPUT-OUT_STRING.

WRITE: / ' STRING: ', OUTPUT-OUT_STRING.

try this one

data: xl_content type xstring .
DATA: binary_content TYPE solix_tab.

CALL FUNCTION 'SCMS_XSTRING_TO_BINARY'
EXPORTING
buffer = xl_content
TABLES
binary_tab = binary_content.

See the below declaration. It should work.

DATA: STRING TYPE string,

you can use the following code to convert Xstring to String.

DATA: content TYPE STRING,

Xcontent TYPE XSTRING .

DATA: conv TYPE REF TO CL_ABAP_CONV_IN_CE.

conv = CL_ABAP_CONV_IN_CE=>CREATE( input = Xcontent ).

conv->READ( importing data = content ).

You can refer to below class-method set to convert instead of using unreleased FMs.

*&---------------------------------------------------------------------*
*&    " Convert XString to String
*&---------------------------------------------------------------------*
DATA: lv_string TYPE string,
      lv_xstring TYPE xstring.

DATA: lo_conv_in TYPE REF TO CL_ABAP_CONV_IN_CE.

lo_conv_in = CL_ABAP_CONV_IN_CE=>CREATE( input = lv_xstring ).
lo_conv_in->READ( IMPORTING data = lv_string ).

*&---------------------------------------------------------------------*
*&    " Convert String to XString
*&---------------------------------------------------------------------*
DATA: lo_conv TYPE REF TO cl_abap_conv_out_ce.

lo_conv = cl_abap_conv_out_ce=>create( encoding = '4110' ).
lo_conv->convert( EXPORTING data   = lv_string
                  IMPORTING buffer = lv_xstring ).

*&---------------------------------------------------------------------*
*&    " Convert XString to Binary

      CLEAR: lt_binary_tab.
      lt_binary_tab = cl_document_bcs=>xstring_to_solix(
                      ip_xstring = lv_xstring ).
