How to find string with trailing space

[sourabh_chugh]

Hi,

I need to search a word instead of string from another string.

I tried below code and expected that FIND will not search 'weeds' but it seems FIND ignores trailing spaces of string zstr and thus finds word 'weeds'.

***********************************************************

DATA: zstr type string value 'we ',

lv_string type string value 'These are weeds',

result_tab TYPE match_result_tab.

FIND FIRST OCCURRENCE OF regex zstr IN lv_string

IGNORING CASE

RESULTS result_tab.

**********************************************************

Please consider that zstr is runtime variable with no fixed length.

If anybody has the solution, reply back fast !

Regards,

Sourabh

hi,

Check out in this way ...

 if  lv_string cp zstr. 
   write : 'Success'.
 else.
  write : 'Failed'.
 endif.

Hi,

Hi,

DATA STRING(30) VALUE 'This is a little sentence.'.

WRITE: / 'Searched', 'SY-SUBRC', 'SY-FDPOS'.

ULINE /1(26).

SEARCH STRING FOR 'X'.

WRITE: / 'X', SY-SUBRC UNDER 'SY-SUBRC',

SY-FDPOS UNDER 'SY-FDPOS'

SEARCH STRING FOR 'itt '.

WRITE: / 'itt ', SY-SUBRC UNDER 'SY-SUBRC',

SY-FDPOS UNDER 'SY-FDPOS'

SEARCH STRING FOR '.e .'.

WRITE: / '.e .', SY-SUBRC UNDER 'SY-SUBRC',

SY-FDPOS UNDER 'SY-FDPOS'.

SEARCH STRING FOR '*e'.

WRITE: / '*e ', SY-SUBRC UNDER 'SY-SUBRC',

SY-FDPOS UNDER 'SY-FDPOS'.

SEARCH STRING FOR 's*'.

WRITE: / 's* ', SY-SUBRC UNDER 'SY-SUBRC',

SY-FDPOS UNDER 'SY-FDPOS'.
