dump error in OVS help

[Former Member]

Dear friends

i am getting dump  when i tried to use OVS help on input field,

  You attempted to assign a field to a typed field symbol,   but the field does not have the required type.

check my below code

declare data structures for the fields to be displayed and
* for the table columns of the selection list, if necessary
  types:
  begin of lty_stru_input,
* add fields for the display of your search input here
  job_id type string,
  job_desc type string,
  end of lty_stru_input.

  types:
  begin of lty_stru_list,
* add fields for the selection list here
  short type short_d,
  stext type stext,
  end of lty_stru_list.

  data: ls_search_input type lty_stru_input,
  lt_select_list type standard table of lty_stru_list,
  ls_text type wdr_name_value,
  lt_label_texts type wdr_name_value_list,
  lt_column_texts type wdr_name_value_list,
  lv_window_title type string,
  lv_group_header type string,
  lv_table_header type string.

  field-symbols: <ls_query_params> type lty_stru_input,
  <ls_selection> type lty_stru_list.

  DATA : lv_short TYPE string,
  lv_stext TYPE string.

  case ovs_callback_object->phase_indicator.

  when if_wd_ovs=>co_phase_0. "configuration phase, may be omitted
* in this phase you have the possibility to define the texts,
* if you do not want to use the defaults (DDIC-texts)

  ls_text-name = `JOB_ID`. "must match a field name of search
  ls_text-value = `Job Abbr`.
  INSERT ls_text INTO TABLE lt_label_texts.

  ls_text-name = `JOB_DESC`. "must match a field name of search
  ls_text-value = `Job Description`.
  INSERT ls_text INTO TABLE lt_label_texts.

  INSERT ls_text INTO TABLE lt_column_texts.

  ls_text-name = `STEXT`.

  label_texts = lt_label_texts
  column_texts = lt_column_texts
  group_header = 'Job Abbreviation'
  col_count = 2
  row_count = 10 ).

  when if_wd_ovs=>co_phase_1. "set search structure and defaults

Hi Vijaya Laxmi,

I have just tested your code in my system.. it works perfect.

Could you please set a break point at line

assign ovs_callback_object->selection->* to <ls_selection>.

Check the values of ovs_callback_object->selection->*, so that you can get to know what is the exact type its having

I think there is some type mismatch with the target field symbol ( its working fine here ).

Hope this helps you.

Regards,

Rama
