GUI_DOWLOAD Problem

Former Member — Tue, 22 Apr 2008 06:08:03 GMT

Hi All,

I am using GUI_DOWNLOAD. If for the presentation server, I provide an Invalid path for the directory , let’s say ‘XXX’ which is an invalid path, then GUI_DOWNLOAD does not returns any errors instead it creates the folder in the SAP work directory with the name 'XXX' on the local PC and downloads the files at that place which is not correct. Is there any flag in the importing parameter which can override this?

Please help.

Thanks & Regards

Anu

Hi Anu,

I don't think we have any option in GUI_Download, But this you can get by , using class and related method , i.e

cl_gui_frontend_services->DIRECTORY_EXIST

this method will check , whether particular directory existed or not..

so i think , you can achive what do you want.

vinesh.

Hi Anu,

Are you using a logical path to get the filename? (Transaction FILE).

If so you can retrieve the path and filename with the FM "FILE_GET_NAME"

There you have the parameter "Emergency_Flag" which you can use to determine if an error occured.

Kind Regards
