Field catalog issue

former_member156446 — Wed, 05 Dec 2007 20:20:42 GMT

Hi ppl

I am building a field catalog for standard table 'API_VALI' , why am I not getting field catalog in xfield?

TYPE-POOLS: slis.

DATA: xfield TYPE slis_t_fieldcat_alv,

Code:

CALL FUNCTION 'REUSE_ALV_FIELDCATALOG_MERGE'

EXPORTING

i_program_name = sy-repid

i_internal_tabname = 'API_VALI'

CHANGING

ct_fieldcat = xfield

EXCEPTIONS

inconsistent_interface = 1

program_error = 2

OTHERS = 3.

That is not an internal table.

I_STRUCTURE_NAME = 'API_VALI' instead of i_internal_table.

You will get it.

As ABAP_TECHINCAL has written, for standard tables you don't have to send the parameter i_internal_tabname . Instead you have to send the table name in the parameter i_structure_name.

CALL FUNCTION 'REUSE_ALV_FIELDCATALOG_MERGE'

EXPORTING

i_program_name = sy-repid

i_structure_name = 'API_VALI'

CHANGING

ct_fieldcat = xfield

EXCEPTIONS

inconsistent_interface = 1

program_error = 2

OTHERS = 3.

See the sample program given in the link below. It shows, how to create Field Catalog for INTERNAL TABLES

data: itab_api_vali type standard table of api_vali.

you can now pass itab_api_vali to i_internal_table.

Declare internal table as

Data I_API_VALI like API_VALI occurs 0 with header line.
