OBJECTS_NOT_CHARLIKE Dump

[Former Member]

Hello Experts,

I'm trying to extract BSEG Entries into a Txt File in Application Server.

Getting Dump at this place:

IF NOT <fs> IS INITIAL.
  CONCATENATE xout <fs> INTO xout SEPARATED BY space. 
ENDIF.

Error Analysis:

In statement
  "CONCATENATE"
the argument "<FS>" can only take a character-type data object.

In this case, the operand "<FS>" has the non-character type "P".

When I debugged & checked, the value of <fs> was 100.00.

Code :

FIELD-SYMBOLS: <fs>.
DATA:
     xout                     TYPE string.
      LOOP AT g_t_bseg INTO g_wa_bseg.

        DO.
          ASSIGN COMPONENT sy-index OF STRUCTURE g_wa_bseg TO <fs>.
          IF sy-subrc <> 0.
            EXIT.
          ENDIF.

          IF sy-index = 1.
            xout = <fs> .
          ELSE.
            IF NOT <fs> IS INITIAL.
              CONCATENATE xout <fs> INTO xout
                     SEPARATED BY space. "cl_abap_char_utilities=>horizontal_tab.
            ENDIF.
          ENDIF.
        ENDDO.

        w_count = w_count + 1.
        TRANSFER xout TO p_ofile.

      ENDLOOP. 

Please advise on this.

Thanks & Regards,

Hello Sowmya,

Declare <fs> as FIELD-SYMBOLS: <fs> TYPE ANY.

Thanks

Hi,

I had already tried that too.... But still getting the same dump.

Hi Sowmya,

Instead of

ASSIGN COMPONENT sy-index OF STRUCTURE g_wa_bseg TO <fs>.

Try this.

Declare 

DATA: new_line TYPE REF TO data.

CREATE DATA new_line LIKE LINE OF intab.

ASSIGN new_line->* TO <fs>.

In the DO-ENDDO loop, use CONCATENATE, MOVE-CORRESPONDING, etc. It should work.

The catch here is since <fs> doesnt have any structure, it is not able to cast/determine the values your are trying to pass.

Hi Sowmya,

Please create a new variable with type 'string'.

pass value from <FS> to that variable.

and then try to concatenate.

This will work.

thanks,
