Multiline string in ABAP

Former Member — Wed, 06 Jun 2007 12:42:27 GMT

Hi,

I want to have string value as multiline i.e. if I print it output should be in multiline.

Example:

write anystring

output:

possible method would be to concatenate function with separater as newline character. I have very limited knowledge of abap hence need your help

Split the string into 3 different strings of your length and display them in individual lines and display.

SPLIT STR INTO STR1 STR2 STR3.

OR DO OFFSETTING OF THE STRING into 3 strings and display

Hello,

Do like this.


DATA: LV_CHAR(132) VALUE
'I want to have string value as multiline'.
DATA: BEGIN OF ITAB OCCURS 0,
        FIELD1(20),
        END OF ITAB.

SPLIT LV_CHAR AT SPACE INTO TABLE ITAB.
LOOP AT ITAB.
  WRITE:/ ITAB-FIELD1.
ENDLOOP.

Hi Anji,

The question is not related to printing it is about getting multiline string. I am not going to print this string but it will be use for passing value somewhere else.

Is there any newline character in ABAP??/

for new line

CL_ABAP_CHAR_UTILITIES=>NEWLINE

if its with carriage return

CL_ABAP_CHAR_UTILITIES=>CR_LF

you can use split string at CL_ABAP_CHAR_UTILITIES=>CR_LF into ......

Hi,

The following code could help:



Data: begin of itab occurs 0,
          text(100),
        end of itab.

data: c_string type string value 'Hi How are you'.

Split c_string at space into itab.

loop at itab.
  write:/ itab-text.
endloop.

Thanks and regards,
S. Chandra Mouli.

  'line2'
  'line3'
  'line4'
  'line5'
  into lv_multiple_lines
separated by CL_ABAP_CHAR_UTILITIES=>NEWLINE
