Problem with UPLOAD function.

[amarnath_singanamala2]

Hi All,

I am working in an Upgrade project(The upgrade is from 4.6B to ECC 5.0). So in ECC 5.0 the function module UPLOAD is obsolete so I need to replace it with GUI_UPLOAD. In a program they are using this function module where they have used CANCEL parameter( in the Export parameters of the function module ) and they are performing some checks on this parameter. But this parameter is not present in the GUI_UPLOAD in ECC 5.0 , So what could be the solution for this case.

Please reply as soon as possible..

With Regards,

Amarnath Singanamala

Hi,

Before using the GUI_UPLOAD function module, use GUI_FILE_SAVE_DIALOG.

Hope this will help you.

I suggest you to do this.

class CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES

1. Call the method FILE_OPEN_DIALOG (This should have the cancel)

2. Then call the method GUI_UPLOAD of the same class if you want to proceed with the upload of the selected file from the previous method.

Ravi

HI ravi,

I Have a doubt regarding UPLOAD function. In function UPLOAD we have few parameters like FILETYPE_NO_CHANGE, SILENT . so these are not there in GUI_UPLOAD in ECC 5.0, can u you please give the corresponding parameters of those two in GUI_UPLOAD function in ECC 5.0.

Hi,

Currently I am not infront of the system and so cannot see the functionality of those parameters. However, is there a specific functionality that you are looking from GUI_UPLOAD method.

As UPLOAD is really a old function, quite a few changes were done by SAP, so the parameters might not exist in the new one now.

Hi

I controlled fm WS_UPLOAD and I couldn't see that parameter, so you should explain which is its use (which checks user ahve done on it).

This is an example to open a download a file (in my case I created an excel file):

• Open dialog

CALL METHOD CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES=>FILE_OPEN_DIALOG

EXPORTING

WINDOW_TITLE = 'Open file'

DEFAULT_EXTENSION = 'XLS'

DEFAULT_FILENAME = 'C:\filetest.xls'

• FILE_FILTER =

• INITIAL_DIRECTORY =

• MULTISELECTION =

• WITH_ENCODING =

CHANGING

FILE_TABLE = FILETABLE

RC = RC

USER_ACTION = USER_ACTION

• FILE_ENCODING =

EXCEPTIONS

FILE_OPEN_DIALOG_FAILED = 1

CNTL_ERROR = 2

ERROR_NO_GUI = 3

NOT_SUPPORTED_BY_GUI = 4

OTHERS = 5.

IF SY-SUBRC = 0.

IF RC = 1

AND USER_ACTION = CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES=>ACTION_OK.

• Downlod file

READ TABLE FILETABLE INTO WA_FILE INDEX 1.

MOVE WA_FILE-FILENAME TO FILENAME.

CALL FUNCTION 'GUI_DOWNLOAD'

EXPORTING

FILENAME = FILENAME

FILETYPE = 'ASC'

WRITE_FIELD_SEPARATOR = 'X'

CONFIRM_OVERWRITE = 'X'

TABLES

DATA_TAB = ITAB

EXCEPTIONS

FILE_WRITE_ERROR = 1

NO_BATCH = 2

GUI_REFUSE_FILETRANSFER = 3

INVALID_TYPE = 4

NO_AUTHORITY = 5

UNKNOWN_ERROR = 6

HEADER_NOT_ALLOWED = 7

SEPARATOR_NOT_ALLOWED = 8

FILESIZE_NOT_ALLOWED = 9

HEADER_TOO_LONG = 10

DP_ERROR_CREATE = 11

DP_ERROR_SEND = 12

DP_ERROR_WRITE = 13

UNKNOWN_DP_ERROR = 14

ACCESS_DENIED = 15

DP_OUT_OF_MEMORY = 16

DISK_FULL = 17

DP_TIMEOUT = 18

FILE_NOT_FOUND = 19

DATAPROVIDER_EXCEPTION = 20

CONTROL_FLUSH_ERROR = 21

OTHERS = 22.

IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.

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

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

ELSE.

CALL FUNCTION 'WS_EXECUTE'

EXPORTING

DOCUMENT = 'X'

COMMANDLINE = FILENAME

PROGRAM = 'EXCEL'

EXCEPTIONS

OTHERS = 99.

ENDIF.

ELSE.

IF USER_ACTION =

CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES=>ACTION_CANCEL.

MESSAGE S208(00) WITH 'Action cancelled by user'.

ENDIF.

ENDIF.

ENDIF.

You can use the method GUI_DOWNLOAD of class CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES instead of fm GUI_DOWNLOAD just as the guys have said before.
