Returning XML string from RFC

[Former Member]

Hi experts,

Suppose in an RFC i have some data in the internal table. Can I convert this data to an xml string and return this xml string to the people who call this RFC .

Regards,

Sanath.

Yes you can.

Hi Sanath,

Hope you read the thread about "good questions"... - What is the question in there?

Basically you can transform any serialzable*1 abap variable into an xml stream

using statement CALL TRANSFORMATION ID SOURCE lt_my_table RESULT XML lv_xml.

It can be re-transformed as:

CALL TRANSFORMATION ID SOURCE XML lv_my_xml RESULT lt_my_table.

Just use the help on this statement

*1 serializable means the data objects must not contain any object references anywhere.

additionally it is not recommended to have string or any x-type values in there.

Hi,

Convert Internal table data to PDF and then to Binary.
