Replacement for WS_QUERY

Former Member — Tue, 01 Apr 2008 09:22:30 GMT

Hi,

Currently i am using the FM 'WS_QUERY' and passing Query as 'WS' for check the existence of windows system. But i am doing in ECC 6.0 and this FM is obsolete, so which FM replaces the above said one. I want to check for windows existence only and passing Query field only.

Waiting for your replies.

Regards,

Bujji

Check the method CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES=>GET_PLATFORM.

Sample code:


  data: platform type i.

  platform = CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES=>GET_PLATFORM( ).

  case platform.
    when CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES=>PLATFORM_WINDOWS95.
      write: / 'Windows 95'.
      write: / 'GET_PLATFORM test OK.'.
    when CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES=>PLATFORM_WINDOWS98.
      write: / 'Windows 98'.
      write: / 'GET_PLATFORM test OK.'.
    when CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES=>PLATFORM_NT351.
      write: / 'Windows NT 3.51'.
      write: / 'GET_PLATFORM test OK.'.
    when CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES=>PLATFORM_NT40.
      write: / 'Windows NT 4.0'.
      write: / 'GET_PLATFORM test OK.'.
    when CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES=>PLATFORM_NT50.
      write: / 'Windows 2000'.
      write: / 'GET_PLATFORM test OK.'.
    WHEN CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES=>PLATFORM_UNKNOWN.
      write: / 'Platform unknown'.
      write: / 'GET_PLATFORM test OK.'.
    WHEN OTHERS.
      write: / 'GET_PLATFORM test failed.'.
  endcase.

Following are the attributes returned by the get_platform method.

PLATFORM_WINDOWS98
PLATFORM_NT351
PLATFORM_NT40
PLATFORM_NT50
PLATFORM_MAC
PLATFORM_OS2
