Problem in Unicode Conversion

[Former Member]

Hello Experts,

As TRANSLATE is obsolate in Unicode version(4.7).. I am using following code to Replace translate.

But The data is not getting translated. Please help.

TYPES: BEGIN OF g_ty_packed,

ttnr(10) TYPE c,

zuord(2) TYPE c,

fuel1(18) TYPE c,

prozent(7) TYPE c,

fuel2(20) TYPE c,

werk(3) TYPE c,

fuel3(20) TYPE c,

END OF g_ty_packed.

DATA: l_view TYPE REF TO cl_abap_view_offlen.

DATA: g_s_packed TYPE g_ty_packed.

DATA: lf_len_x TYPE i,

lo_conv TYPE REF TO cl_abap_conv_in_ce,

l_buffer TYPE xstring.

DATA: lr_conv TYPE REF TO cl_abap_conv_in_ce,

l_xfeld TYPE xstring,

l_encoding TYPE abap_encoding.

FIELD-SYMBOLS: <xfeld>.

ASSIGN g_s_packed TO <xfeld> TYPE 'X'.

l_xfeld = <xfeld>.

lr_conv = cl_abap_conv_in_ce=>create(

encoding = '1610'

input = l_xfeld ).

l_view = cl_abap_view_offlen=>create_unicode16_view(

g_s_packed ).

CALL METHOD lr_conv->read

EXPORTING

view = l_view

IMPORTING

data = g_s_packed.

Here the data has not converted to ASCII, its still displaying in Some different format(####)

Pls tell me what's wrong in this......

Hi,

For Transalation issues in Unicode you may use any of the following methoda.

We need to change all the Type X (Hexadecimal) variables to Type C with their values unchanged.

So the method to be followed is:-

1. Load the definition of the class CL_ABAP_CONV_IN_CE or CL_ABAP_CHAR_UTILITIES.

2. Declare the variable as Type C, and use the method UCCP(u2018XXXXu2019) of the class CL_ABAP_CONV_IN_CE where XXXX represents the 8-bit Hexadecimal value and incase the variable holds a Hex value for a Horizontal Tab , then the Attribute u201CHORIZONTAL_TABu201D of the class CL_ABAP_CHAR_UTILITIES can be used directly instead of using the method UCCP.

E.g.:

i) *DATA: TAB TYPE X VALUE 09, u201CTab character

CLASS: CL_ABAP_CHAR_UTILITIES DEFINITION LOAD.

DATA TAB TYPE C VALUE CL_ABAP_CHAR_UTILITIES=>HORIZONTAL_TAB.

ii) * DATA: CHAR TYPE X VALUE 160.

CLASS: CL_ABAP_CONV_IN_CE DEFINITION LOAD.

DATA CHAR TYPE C.

CHAR = CL_ABAP_CONV_IN_CE=>UCCP(u201800AOu2019).

(Here u201800A0u2019 is the Hexadecimal equivalent of the decimal 160).

3. Incase the TYPE X Variable has a length more than 1, then an internal table must be created for the variable.

E.g.:

CLASS: CL_ABAP_CONV_IN_CE DEFINITION LOAD.

DATA : LF(2) TYPE X VALUE 'F5CD'.

DATA : BEGIN OF LF,

A1 TYPE C,

A2 TYPE C,

END OF LF.

LF-A1 = CL_ABAP_CONV_IN_CE=>UCCP('00F5').

LF-A2 = CL_ABAP_CONV_IN_CE=>UCCP('00CD').

I4. In Case Variable is a field of Internal Table.

CLASS: CL_ABAP_CONV_IN_CE DEFINITION LOAD.

DATA:

BEGIN OF wk,

ctr TYPE i,

max TYPE i,

indent TYPE i,

staro LIKE sy-staro,

cpage LIKE sy-cpage,

ans,

repid LIKE sy-repid,

filename LIKE rlgrap-filename,

rec(80),

• tab TYPE x VALUE '09', "V02.01KUM

tab(2) TYPE C VALUE '09', "V02.01KUM

END OF wk.

Wk-tab = CL_ABAP_CONV_IN_CE=>UCCP('0009').
