How to handle importing parameters of Download Function module in unicode conversion.

If i am converting my SAP from Non unicode to unicode environment how should i handle the importing parameters od download Function module in Cl_gui_frontend_services=> gui_download because there is only one importing paramter in that , where as in download function module i have 3 importing parameters

Before your call to class CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES -> GUI_DOWNLOAD, the following additional code is required:

DATA: ld_filename TYPE string,

ld_path TYPE string,

ld_fullpath TYPE string,

ld_result TYPE i.

CALL METHOD cl_gui_frontend_services=>file_save_dialog

EXPORTING

default_file_name = str_filename

initial_directory = str_filename

CHANGING

filename = ld_filename

path = ld_path

fullpath = ld_fullpath

user_action = ld_result.

CHECK ld_result EQ '0'.

The filename exported to GUI_DOWNLOAD must be changed to ld_fullpath.

Hi,

Please see the below code .

Function module u2018DOWNLOADu2019

CALL FUNCTION 'DOWNLOAD'

EXPORTING

filename = p_file

filetype = 'WK1'

TABLES

data_tab = i_table.

..

would be replaced with:

data: gd_file type string.

DATA: ld_filename TYPE string,

ld_path TYPE string,

ld_fullpath TYPE string,

ld_result TYPE i.

types: t_uctable like line of i_table.

data: it_uctable type standard table of t_uctable.

gd_file = p_file.

shift gd_file RIGHT DELETING TRAILING '\'.

shift gd_file RIGHT DELETING TRAILING '/'.

shift gd_file left DELETING LEADING space.

CALL METHOD cl_gui_frontend_services=>file_save_dialog

EXPORTING

DEFAULT_EXTENSION = 'WK1'

default_file_name = gd_file

INITIAL_DIRECTORY = gd_file

CHANGING

filename = ld_filename

path = ld_path

fullpath = ld_fullpath

user_action = ld_result.

check ld_result eq 0.

gd_file = ld_fullpath.

gd_file = p_file.

it_uctable[] = i_table[].

CALL METHOD cl_gui_frontend_services=>gui_download

EXPORTING

filename = gd_file

filetype = 'ASC' " DAT,WK1

Append = ' ' "if mode = A then this would be X

CHANGING

data_tab = it_uctable

EXCEPTIONS

OTHERS = 1.

Hi mohd,

cool.

if you are facing problem with the class, try to use GUI_*.

any way before using gui_*,

use file_*_dialog.
