Error in Control Framework with GUI_DOWNLOAD FM

[Former Member]

Dear All,

I am using GUI_DOWNLOAD FM to download a file in PDF format to presentation server.

The code has been written in an enhancement spot in a class "/SCA/CL_SVORDER", method "Print" on an SNC server.

On execution I get the error "Error in Control Framework".

First I tht that this has something to do with the data table. But when I tried to pass a simple table of Integers in ASC format, it gave the same error.

Please assist.

You cannot run this in the background.

Dear Rob,

I am not running it in background.

The enhancement that I have coded this in, gets called on click of the Print PO button in SNC Web UI.

Hi All,

The enhancement that I was referring to (one in which I have written the code) gets called when the user clicks the Print PO button. The application is developed in WD ABAP.

I think it is impossible to call GUI_DOWNLOAD in WD ABAP application.

I tried this by developing a WDA application with a button.

On button click, caled GUI_DOWNLOAD and faced same result - ""Error in Control framework" !!!

Will start a new thread.

Cheers

Hi!

I have the same error, but i need to use CSV Format.

in another program, i used this with XML format.

lv_xml = lr_element->to_xml( ).

• Converts the string to xstring

lv_xxml = wd_this->convert_file( lv_xml ).

• Shows it in a new browser window

*cl_wd_runtime_services=>attach_file_to_response(*

*i_filename = lco_filename*

*i_content = lv_xxml*

*i_mime_type = lco_mime_type*

*i_in_new_window = abap_FALSE*

*i_inplace = abap_false ).*

Regards!
