Generate a structure from JSON

raffinkira — Thu, 28 Feb 2019 12:15:11 GMT

Hi all,

Is it possible that generating a SE11 structure based on a given JSON if I don't want to define the structure field one by one. In Java, I can use file writer class to generate a class file, I am not sure if ABAP can do the same thing.

If i understood correctly, raffinkira wants to create and not to fill a dictionary table/structure .

But i'm not so sure if it's to create or to fill the table

/UI2/CL_JSON can create dynamic structure (local, not DDIC).

Why a SE11 structure? Don't you just want to parse the JSON dynamically (sXML)?

Hi Sandra,

sometimes you have to SEND in JSON. Means: First fill an internal Structure in ABAP Code.
The internal strukture refers to SE11.

That is what raffinkira wants.
