Import from database an internal table with generic Type

[Former Member]

Hi everyone,

i have a requirement in which i'm asked to transfer data flow between two frameworks, from WD Component to another. The problem is that i have to transfer internal tables with generic types. i used the import/ export from database approache but in that way i get an error message saying "Object references and data references not yet supported".

Here is my code to extract a generic internal table from memory.

    DATA l_table_f4 TYPE TABLE OF REF TO data.
  FIELD-SYMBOLS: <l_table_f4> TYPE STANDARD TABLE.
  DATA lo_componentcontroller TYPE REF TO ig_componentcontroller .
  DATA: ls_indx TYPE indx.

  lo_componentcontroller =   wd_this->get_componentcontroller_ctr( ).
  lo_componentcontroller->fire_vh_search_action_evt( ).

  ASSIGN l_table_f4 TO <l_table_f4>.
*-- Import table for Help F4
  IMPORT l_table_f4 TO <l_table_f4> FROM DATABASE indx(v1) TO ls_indx ID 'table_help_f4_ID'.

The error message is desplayed when last instruction is executed " IMPORT l_table_f4...".

I saw another post facing the same problem but never solved "Generic Type for import Database".

Please can anyone help ?

Thanks & Kind regards.

Since you mention 'WD' and I can't understand much of the post, I'm guessing this is a Web Dynpro question. There is a separate area for Web Dynpro: http://scn.sap.com/community/web-dynpro-abap

You might want to post it there. If you chose to post in ABAP General, you might want to add to the subject that this is a Web Dynpro question. This would attract the folks who have a clue (unlike me ). Otherwise my first thought was that this is another newbie post on how to use ASSIGN. The same problem with the other post, I guess, hence no response.

Good luck.
