Transporting data from abap to function

h_senden2 — Mon, 12 Sep 2005 11:09:19 GMT

Hi,

i need to transport data (Set/Get or other technique) from method 1 to method 2.

abap 1 call method1 of badi 1

abap 1 calls function module 1 IN UPDATE TASK

function module 1 calls function module 2 with destination 'NONE'.

function module 2 calls method 2 of badi 2

I've tried the Set/get parameter technique, but it didn't work.

Are there other possibilities ?

regards,

Hans

You can use ABAP memory with EXPORT / IMPORT parameters .

Try EXPORT TO MEMORY.

For example

EXPORT <var> TO MEMORY ID 'TEST'.

IMPORT <var> FROM MEMORY ID 'TEST'.

I've tried the EXPORT to memory id solution, but the compiler gives an error in the badi-method :

EXPORT var_1 ... var_n TO MEMORY ... is not supported in the OO context.

You will have to define the from parameter also like -

EXPORT W_SEND_MEM FROM W_SEND_MEM TO MEMORY ID 'Z129'.

I've changed it to this syntax. The compiler says everything is all right. But no data is transferred from method 1 to method 2.

Can you paste your code of method 1 and method 2.

Cheers.

Code method 1 :

data: lx_convert type xfeld.
* depending on some conditions the variable lx_convert
* will be set to 'X' or ' '
lx_convert = 'X'.

EXPORT lx_convert from lx_convert to memory id 'ZZHSTEST_CONVERT'.

Code method 2 :

DATA: lx_convert TYPE xfeld.
IMPORT lx_convert to lx_convert FROM MEMORY ID 'ZZHSTEST_CONVERT'.
* to show the resulting value of lx_convert
* i will use a call of function TH_POPUP with the value 
* as text

My question was how you are calling method 2 from methiod 1

Cheers.

Hi ,

To add to Sanjay,

when you are importing it should have the same parameter name, otherwise it will not copy the value.

For example if you are exporting like this:

EXPORT W_SEND_MEM FROM W_SEND_MEM TO MEMORY ID 'Z129'

the corresponding import statement should be

IMPORT W_SEND_MEM FROM MEMORY ID 'Z129'

W_SEND_MEM in export and import statements should match.

Surendra

Hi ,

So you have given 4 scenarios in your first mail.

Please try this

In Method 1

DATA: INDXKEY LIKE INDX-SRTFD VALUE 'KEYVALUE',

WA_INDX TYPE INDX.

Before export, fill the data fields
before CLUSTR.

WA_INDX-AEDAT = SY-DATUM.

WA_INDX-USERA = SY-UNAME.

Export der Daten.

EXPORT IT FROM IT

TO SHARED BUFFER INDX(ST) FROM WA_INDX ID INDXKEY.

In Method 2

DATA: INDXKEY LIKE INDX-SRTFD VALUE 'KEYVALUE',

WA_INDX TYPE INDX.

IMPORT IT TO IT

FROM SHARED BUFFER INDX(ST) ID INDXKEY TO WA_INDX.

Hope thsi works .

Cheers.

Sanjay,

the values are transported now. It seems to work all right. It's the end of the day for me now, but i'm going to test it tomorrow morning.

Thanx,

Hans
