maximum permitted 8 (= 2 * 4) valid characters.- dump?

former_member194669 — Fri, 22 Jun 2007 14:18:23 GMT

Hi,

I am getting this short dump. This dump not coming every time this report execute.

I am getting this dump once in a while.

ABAP/4 Open SQL statement with WHERE ... LIKE and pattern too long.

Error analysis

An exception occurred. This exception is dealt with in more detail below

. The exception, which is assigned to the class 'CX_SY_DYNAMIC_OSQL_SEMANTICS',

was neither

caught nor passed along using a RAISING clause, in the procedure

"F_SELECT_UNIQUE_DOCNO" "(FORM)"

Since the caller of the procedure could not have expected this exception

to occur, the running program was terminated.

The reason for the exception is:

The current ABAP/4 program attempted to execute an ABAP/4 Open SQL

statement in which the WHERE condition contains an LIKE operator.

The format for a LIKE operator should be (with the exception of

closing blanks) no more than twice as long as the

database field to which the condition applies.

In this particular case, the pattern contains

"%40R22.5%"

more than the maximum permitted 8 (= 2 * 4) valid characters.

In dynamic selection it can't use SELECT-OPTION, u can use only fix values.

The fm FREE_SELECTIONS_RANGE_2_WHERE is to translate the sets of selection to be transfered to a submit of a report using a logical database.

Hi.

Maybe there is a difference in data declaration of

l_ds_range and s_awerk

and so result longer patterns than allowed in the selection.

Regards,

Timo.

It looks to me like it's saying that the DOCNO can be a maximum of eight characters, and the pattern you are pssing "%40R22.5%" is more than eight characters. It's nine characters. You may be trying to use EQ instead of LIKE.

Hi Max,

It has been working for select options all the below mentioned in dynamic where. and also checked the

call function FREE_SELECTIONS_RANGE_2_WHERE, it is giving proper where condition.

Timo,

I checked the input values are with in the limit.

Rob,

If you check the following code


form f_select_unique_docno.
 
  dynamic_where: s_docds  text-063 'docdes'.
  get_unique: yarshdrt.

  dynamic_where: s_custo text-077 'customerno',
                 s_custp text-077 'custpartno'.
  get_unique yarscust.

  dynamic_where: s_prdcd text-080 'prodcode',
                 s_ptype text-080 'ptype'.
  get_unique yarsprdcode.

  dynamic_where: s_hwerk text-081 'werks',
                 s_affin text-081 'affind'.
  get_unique yarsplnt.

  dynamic_where: s_awerk text-082 'werks'.
  get_unique yarsauthplnts.

endform.                                 " F_select_unique_docno

it is generating a dynamic where for finding out the docno of these select options

Between the macro call dynamic_where: s_awerk text-082 'werks'. " text-082 - YARSAUTHPLNTS and the macro call get_unique yarsauthplnts, add a few lines to verify the contents of your WHERE tab.
