How to create structure from formal parameter TABLE TYPE ANY TABLE

MarcinPciak — Tue, 29 Jan 2008 09:03:04 GMT

Hi,

I have a FM where TABLES data_tab TYPE ANY TABLE.

Inside the FM I would like to create structure typed as line of this table. I know that generic type can't be used to create other types but maybe there is other way to do this.

I tried this way:

FIELDS-SYMBOLS: <fs> type any.

Loop at data_tab.

assign data_tab to <fs>. "now <fs> contains line of data_tab...

exit.

Endloop.

"..but...

data: begin of ls_struct.

include structure <fs>. "...here I receive 'The included type has no type'

data: end of ls_struct.

Any ideas?

Thx in advance.

Hi Marcin,

data: begin of ls_struct.

include structure <fs>.

data: end of ls_struct.

In this case <fs> has no structure at complie time.

anyways u have not assigned <fs> to any data type which has structure, hence the error.

So is there any other way to create such structure?
