RUNT_ILLEGAL_SWITCH during CALL TRANSFORMATION

[Former Member]

Hello all.

I am trying to use a SIMPLE TRANSFORMATION to transforma a ABAP internal table into XML.

When i use the CALL TRANSFORMATION i am getting the exception CX_INVALID_TRANSFORMATION with the error RUNT_ILLEGAL_SWITCH.

I checked the SIMPLE TRANSFORMATION and everything seems ok.

Anyone knows why could this be happening?

Thank you

Hi nuno,

There might be some minor mistake in your code

due to which it might be giving error.

1. itab --- > xml

xml ---> itab.

2. This program will do both.

(just copy paste in new program)

3.

REPORT abc.

END OF itab.

Hello Amit.

I need to use my own transformation so i cant use ('ID').

I made a few changes and right now i am getting the same exception but i am getting a diferent message.

It now says "Type of source and target must always be different for transformation".

Do you know why is this happening? i have had this problem before and it started working without me knowing why. So now i would like to know why do i get this problem
