How can show binary attachment from SAP GUI.

[Former Member]

<H5>Does have anybody idea,

to show some file stored in memory on local machine ?</H5>

For example binary stream of file is stored in local value typed xstring, binary table or raw data in database table.

<H6>Sample scenario:

1) store file to database table

2) show stored file, without copy to local machine.</H6>

One way is copy file to local machine using CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES=>GUI_DOWNLOAD,

than call

CALL FUNCTION 'WS_EXECUTE'

EXPORTING

COMMANDLINE = '/C start filename'

PROGRAM = 'cmd'

<H6>but it's not optimal way</H6>

Have you check this method of WD

Here the following code will be export the Internal Table to pdf

 LOOP AT lt_mara INTO wa_mara.
    CONCATENATE mara_string
                wa_mara-matnr
                wa_mara-ersda
                wa_mara-ernam
                wa_mara-matkl
                wa_mara-meins
                cl_abap_char_utilities=>cr_lf INTO mara_string
                                        SEPARATED BY cl_abap_char_utilities=>horizontal_tab.
  ENDLOOP.
 
  CALL FUNCTION 'SCMS_STRING_TO_XSTRING'
    EXPORTING
      text   = mara_string
    IMPORTING
      buffer = mara_xstring.

cl_wd_runtime_services=>attach_file_to_response( 
   i_filename = 'report.pdf'
   i_content = mara_xstring          " Pass XSTRING here
   i_mime_type = 'application/pdf' 
   i_in_new_window = 'X' 
   i_inplace = 'X' ).

Peter,

For this you don't need WD. You are using only a general class of WD.

Hi,

primary I need this for SAP 4.7 where aren 't webdynpro classes.

But I have tested your sollution on ECC 6.0 and get sytem sytem dump on method attach_file_to_response

method attach_file_to_response.

  wdr_task=>client_window->client->attach_file_to_response(
    i_filename      = i_filename
    i_content       = i_content
    i_mime_type     = i_mime_type
    i_in_new_window = i_in_new_window
    i_inplace       = i_inplace ).

endmethod.

You attempted to use a 'NULL' object reference (points to 'nothing')

access a component (variable: " ").

An object reference must point to an object (an instance of a class)

before it can be used to access components.

Either the reference was never set or it was set to 'NULL' using the

CLEAR statement.
