attach_file_to_response and Zip-Files

[Denis_Müller]

Hello

is there any way to open saved zip-files with the method ATTACH_FILE_TO_RESPONSE

the class of the method is CL_WD_RUNTIME_SERVICES

Hi Denis,

do you want to send the binary file data stored on the application server to the client, in a WD4A application? Then of course you can use the method you mentioned. Just read the data in binary mode and use this method to send it to the client.

Eventually you have to convert the binary data to Unicode, then do something like this:

lo_conv_out = cl_abap_conv_out_ce=>create( encoding = 'UTF-8' ).
lo_conv_out->convert( EXPORTING data = lv_data_from_file IMPORTING buffer = lv_content ).
"here you can call cl_wd_runtime_services=>attach_file_to_response now
"use lv_content for method's parameter i_content

Hope that helps!

Kind regards, Matthias

i don't understand what to do with your code.

i have my zip-file as xstring in a variable.

in the call method of attach_file_to_response i need the parameter i_mime_type.

what is the type of zip in this case.

e.g. for word it is application/msword

that is my problem

I see, you need "application/zip" as mime type.

Kind regards, Matthias

ok, that works fine.

can i find out the type of the file when i have only the xstring?

I don't think so, you have to know what file it is.

If done, please close question and reward with points.

Hi Sasi,

I would recommend that you start a new thread for a new question. It is likely that many people ignore already closed threads, so your question is missed by many here in the forums.

Kind regards, Matthias
