Replacement for the obsolate function module 'WS_FILE_ATTRIB'

[former_member242255]

Hi All,

This is an Upgrade issue.

Can any body help me to find the replacement for the obsolate function module 'WS_FILE_ATTRIB'.

CALL FUNCTION 'WS_FILE_ATTRIB'

EXPORTING

FILE = L_FILENAME

ATTRIB = 'R-'

IMPORTING

RETURN = RETURN

EXCEPTIONS

OTHERS = 1.

Is the method 'CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES=>FILE_SET_ATTRIBUTES' a suitable one ?

if so what parameters i have to pass it.

CALL METHOD CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES=>FILE_SET_ATTRIBUTES

EXPORTING

FILENAME = L_FILENAME

• READONLY =

• NORMAL =

• HIDDEN =

• ARCHIVE =

• IMPORTING

• RC =

• EXCEPTIONS

• CNTL_ERROR = 1

• ERROR_NO_GUI = 2

• NOT_SUPPORTED_BY_GUI = 3

• WRONG_PARAMETER = 4

• others = 5

.

what does it mean by ATTRIB = 'R-'

'WS_FILE_ATTRIB' is allowing only either 'R+' or 'R-'

Also what exactly is the functionality of ''WS_FILE_ATTRIB'' function module

Thanks in advance
