Translate to upper case in unicode

[Former Member]

Hi all,

I need replace the following statement using unicode classes CL_ABAP_CONV_OUT_CE / CL_ABAP_CONV_IN_CE

TRANSLATE TO Upper case.

Can anyone paste the code for me?

Thanks,

Amit Jain

Hi Amit,

you do not need to replace TRANSLATE ... TO UPPER/LOWER CASE in Unicode systems.

You just need to take care that the arguments fit:

The arguments of these instructions must be single fields of type C, N, D, T or STRING or structures of character-type only.

Please have a look at:

Example for class cl_abap_conv_in_ce.

DATA conv TYPE REF TO cl_abap_conv_in_ce.

DATA buffer(4) TYPE x.

DATA text(100) TYPE c.

buffer = '41424344'.

conv = cl_abap_conv_in_ce=>create(

encoding = 'UTF-8' ).

conv->convert(

EXPORTING input = buffer

IMPORTING data = text ).

write: / text.

Example for class cl_abap_conv_out_ce.

data: text(100) type c value 'ABCD',

conv type ref to cl_abap_conv_out_ce,

buffer type xstring.

conv = cl_abap_conv_out_ce=>create(

encoding = 'UTF-8'

endian = 'L'

).

call method conv->write( data = text n = 4 ).

buffer = conv->get_buffer( ).

write:/ buffer.
