Unicode issue with TRANSLATE statement

[Former Member]

TRANSLATE w_extr_string FROM CODE PAGE '1103' TO CODE PAGE '1100'.

This syntax is now obsolete in UNICODE environment.

I've tried to correct it using :

DATA:conv type ref to cl_abap_conv_x2x_ce.

DATA: w_extr_string TYPE XSTRING.

conv = cl_abap_conv_x2x_ce=>create( in_encoding = '1103'

in_endian = 'L'

out_encoding = '1100'

out_endian = 'B'

input = w_extr_string).

But datatype XSTRING is now obsolete in ECC6.0

can anyone plz suggest me a way out...???

w_extr_string is of char type.

so first i ve converted w_extr_string into conv_string (XSTRING) type so that it can be passed as parameter in cl_abap_conv_x2x_ce=>create()

conv_out->convert( exporting data = w_extr_string
                                 importing buffer = conv_string ).
              conv = cl_abap_conv_x2x_ce=>create( in_encoding = '1103'
                                                  in_endian = 'L'
                                                  out_encoding = '1100'
                                                  out_endian = 'B'
                                                  input = conv_string ).

Now i want the translated value into w_extr_string.

I'm able to fetch the converted value.

I've tried

conv->CONVERT_X( n = 1044 ).

bUt it didn't worked....

what can be done to fetch the translated value?????

Hi,

Please check this link:

DATA : 
  in_buffer  TYPE xstring,
  out_buffer TYPE xstring,
  conv       TYPE REF TO cl_abap_conv_x2x_ce.

in_buffer = '414220C3B602010000'.

conv = cl_abap_conv_x2x_ce=>create( in_encoding = 'UTF-8'
in_endian = 'L'
out_encoding = '1100'
out_endian = 'B'
input = in_buffer ).

CALL METHOD conv->convert_c( n = 5 ).
out_buffer = conv->get_out_buffer( ).

WRITE out_buffer.
