Hi Experts

i am using interface IF_WD_SELECT_OPTIONS method ADD_SELECTION_FIELD for filling the selection parameters

    • add a new field to the selection

wd_this->m_handler->add_selection_field(

i_id = '/DMF/EXT_PROD_ID'

it_result = lt_range_table

i_read_only = read_only

*I_HELP_REQUEST_HANDLER = lt

i_value_help_type = 'SEARCHHELP'

i_value_help_id = '/DMF/PROD_SHLP' ).

I would like to like to pass the importing parameter to '/DMF/PROD_SHLP'

Is it possible through this interface .

thnks in advance

I assume this is a data dictionary based search help. You can't pass the importing parameter directly into the field creation. Data Dictionary Search Helps get their importing parameters from their relationship to other attributes in the same context node automatically.

This is from the online help:

If an input help structure is stored in a field in the ABAP Dictionary, and if you want to use the field mapping of search help parameters stored in the ABAP Dictionary as the field name for the structure for your Web Dynpro input help, then map your context nodes to this structure. This ensures that all components of the structure are available dynamically at runtime as attributes of the node.

If the context node is not mapped to the structure, the data element's input help can be used if there is one.
