Hi Experts,

Is there ant FM or method available in ECC6.0 to split a filename and its path?

For Ex: if i give: /test.txt. it should spliti into / and test.txt..Iknow there is FM SO_SPLIT_FILE_AND_PATH.But it is working with only \ it is not woking with forward slash like '/'.

Regards

Ravi.

file = 'c:\desktop\ file.doc'.

CALL FUNCTION 'SO_SPLIT_FILE_AND_PATH'

EXPORTING

FULL_NAME = file

IMPORTING

STRIPPED_NAME = name

FILE_PATH = path

• EXCEPTIONS

• X_ERROR = 1

• OTHERS = 2

.

IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.

• MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO

• WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.

ENDIF.

Hi ,

Thanks But it will not work.

Because if are getting data from application server .

For example if the path is like: /usr

In this case it is not splitting.

Instead try Function Module "TRINT_SPLIT_FILE_AND_PATH"

You can consider replace all occurrence of "\" in your path with "/" before you execute SO_SPLIT_FILE_AND_PATH.

Hi Ravi,

I have found the fm DSVAS_DOC_FILENAME_SPLIT also very useful.

it work for both forward or backward slash

In order to find what is the folder separator used by the operating system, you may use:

For a application server path:  DMC_MDS_GET_PATHSEPARATOR

For a presentation server path:  cl_gui_frontend_services=>get_file_separator

Once you have the separator....

Suppose your input path is: \\servername\path\file.xls

Use STRING_REVERSE function module to reverse the path. The output of this function module will be slx.elif\htap\emanrevres\\

Now, split the output at the separator. Thus, you will get 2 seperate strings - slx.elif and htap\emanrevres\\.

Now use again STRING_REVERSE to reverse both these strings, and thus you will have file.xls and \\servername\path, which is your filename and path.

Thanks,
