method add_attachment

[Former Member]

Hi,

I use method add_attachment of class cl_document_bcs to add an attachement. The problem is:

when I use the method with

            CALL METHOD document->add_attachment
              EXPORTING
                i_attachment_type    = documents_line-type
                i_attachment_subject = documents_line-subject
                i_att_content_text   = documents_line-content_text.

documents_line-content_text is an internal table with several lines, but when I look to the attachment after running it, I get no internal table, what I get is a long row.

Did someone has an idea how to get the same internal table which I habe in documents_line-content_text???

What do you mean by: "but when I look to the attachment after running it" ?

i_att_content_text is an internal table of a 255 char field. What are you getting, and where, and what do you expect to get?

Hello Matt,

when I have following in my internal table:

Line 1

Line 2

I get in the attachment

Line 1 Line 2

I set the type of the attachment to csv but everything is in one line

You need to put in your own carriage return/line feeds. CL_ABAP_CHAR_UTILITIES=>CR_LF

It'll work.

HI,

Try this code it will definitely work

data: gv_document type ref to cl_document_bcs.

data: gv_mail_text type bcsy_text,

gv_mail_text_row type soli.

data: gv_attachment type solix_tab.

try.

gv_mail_text_row = text-001.

append gv_mail_text_row to gv_mail_text.

clear gv_mail_text_row.

describe table gv_mail_text lines gv_num_rows.

gv_num_rows = gv_num_rows * 255.

move gv_num_rows to gv_text_length.

try.

call method cl_document_bcs=>create_document

EXPORTING

i_type = 'RAW'

i_subject = l_subject2

i_length = gv_text_length

i_text = gv_mail_text

RECEIVING

result = gv_document.

catch cx_document_bcs .

endtry.

gv_attachment = cl_document_bcs=>xstring_to_solix( ip_xstring = l_pdf_xstring ).

• Define File Name

attcdoctype = 'pdf'.

atttitle = vbco3-vbeln.

• Create Document

gv_document->add_attachment( exporting i_attachment_type = attcdoctype

i_attachment_subject = atttitle

i_attachment_language = sy-langu

i_att_content_hex = gv_attachment ).

catch cx_bcs into bcs_exception.

ENDTRY.
