Calling GUI_DOWNLOAD Function

i would like to store my internal table into my local disk , there are two functions GUI_DOWNLOAD and WS_DOWNLOAD.
how do i call these functions.
if i want to specify the file name in my selection screen what should be the data type of the file name.
when i call the function GUI_DOWNLOAD , there is an error saying mismatch of datatype of filename.

Dear Rajarshi,
I gave the file name as a paramater with type c length 30 , but it is still showing the same error
The message is given below --
'The function Module interface allows you to specify only fields of a particular type under"FILENAME". The field PATH specified here has a different field type'
Please do suggest some solution.
Regards
Arun

Hello sir
Thanks for quick response.
At first i declared same data type as filename field of FM f4_filename so i declare
DATA : FILE_NAME TYPE IBIPPARMS-PATH.
at selection screen the data type is
PARAMETERS : P_FILE(30) TYPE C.
then i assigned to FILE_NAME
NOW i am assignig field FILENAME of gui_download to it but the data type of filename is string . should i covert the type of
FILE_NAME TO STRING BEFORE ASSIGNING THE VALUE PLEASE SUGGEST.
THANKS IN ADVANCE

How to optimize GUI_DOWNLOAD function I am using...

Hi,
I have got 54 internal tables populated at the end of the report.
I am using GUI_DOWNLOAD Function to download the data in flat files each corresponding to one internal table.
Now in GUI_DOWNLOAD Function, I know I have to mention name of file and name of table as follows:
CALL FUNCTION 'GUI_DOWNLOAD'
EXPORTING
BIN_FILESIZE =
 FILENAME = filenam
 WRITE_FIELD_SEPARATOR = ' '
FILETYPE = 'ASC'
APPEND = ' '
TABLES
 DATA_TAB = ITAB1.
Now I do not want to code GUI_DOWNLOAD 54 times since there are 54 internal tables and I have to mention the name of table always in DAT_TAB parameter.
How can I achieve this ?

Hi,
Probably have three parameters for the subroutine..
perform download tables PTRVTGPER
* Folder - File path
 using 'Concatenate '
bma-files-06\redirectedfolders$\tushar.shah\Desktop\TREATY_TABLE_DATA\'
* File name
 'PTRVTGPER.txt'.
FORM download tables itab
 using folder
 fname.
IF NOT ITAB[] IS INITIAL.
 Concatenate folder fname INTO fname.
Call the FM GUI_DOWNLOAD..
ENDIF.
ENDFORM.
Is this what you want??
Thanks,

CNTL_ERROR while calling a function module from Java webdynpro

I am calling a RFC function module from javawebdynpro app
which inturn calls a function module performing BDC on CAPP transaction. When I run this from SE37 of the same system or a different system everything works fine. But when called from Java webdynpro app, it raises a CNTL_ERROR exception and creates a short dump.
Any help on this is highly appreciated

Good catch, BI Learner. This was exactly it: when assigning the values from SOURCEFIELDS directly to the import/export parameters, you have to make sure that the types are EXACTLY the same, otherwise it will not work (the routine stops with an error when calling the FM, but there is no dump).
Therefore, to solve my problem, I created the declarations precisely as expected by the FM and assigned the values to these fields:
DATA:
      SOURCEVAL TYPE /BIC/OIINVQTY,
      SOURCEUOM TYPE /BIC/OIUSUOM,
      USITM TYPE /BIC/OIUSITM,
      TARGETUOM TYPE /BIC/OIUSUOM,
      CONVERTED_COST TYPE /BIC/OIINVQTY.
DATA PRODUCTION_UOM TYPE /BIC/OIUSUOM.
" get the Production UOM
    SELECT SINGLE I~/BIC/USPRDUOM
      FROM /BIC/PUSITM AS I
      INTO PRODUCTION_UOM
      WHERE I~/BIC/USITM = SOURCE_FIELDS-/BIC/USITM AND I~OBJVERS = 'A'.
    IF ( SY-SUBRC = 4 ). " no records found
      "RAISE PARTNO_NOT_FOUND.
      RAISE EXCEPTION TYPE CX_RSROUT_SKIP_RECORD.
    ENDIF.
" load the parameters
    SOURCEVAL = SOURCE_FIELDS-/BIC/USFRZMFC.
    SOURCEUOM = SOURCE_FIELDS-BASE_UOM.
    USITM = SOURCE_FIELDS-/BIC/USITM.
" then you can call the FM
    CALL FUNCTION 'Z_CA_CONVERT_US_COST'
      EXPORTING
        PSOURCEVAL                = SOURCEVAL
        PSOURCEUOM                = SOURCEUOM
        PUSITM                    = USITM
        PTARGETUOM                = PRODUCTION_UOM
      IMPORTING
        PTARGETVAL                = CONVERTED_COST

Hi, Guess u are missing the connection to the JDBC call.
Try the following...it worked for me..
Connection conn = this.getOADBTransaction().getJdbcConnection();
OracleCallableStatement ocs = null;
String param = null;
try {
 String stmt = "BEGIN :1 := <PkgName>.<FunctionName>(:2); end;";
 ocs = (OracleCallableStatement)conn.prepareCall(stmt);
 ocs.registerOutParameter(1, OracleTypes.CHAR);
 ocs.setString(2, <param>);
 ocs.execute();
 param = ocs.getString(1);
} catch(SQLException se)
{ throw OAException.wrapperException(se);
finally
 try {
 ocs.close();
 return(param);
 } catch(Exception e)
 throw OAException.wrapperException(e);
}

Can we call a function module in ADHOC query

Hi
Can we call a function module in ADHOC query if yes how.
Also we ned to know how to call a function module in SAP query.
An early responce is appreciated.
Thanks and best regards
Rajeev

Okay as far as I understand your aim is:
To fill a field in the output list with a value that is based on the current line information and calculated by a function module
So go to SQ02 and create an additional field in the InfoSet.
You can refer in the coding to the technical names you can see in the left tree window like P0000-PERNR.
More information is avaiable in the Help part look for additional field in SQ02.

Upload data from excel with vba by calling a function module

Hello all,
i have a problem with the function module "ALSM_EXCEL_TO_INTERNAL_TABLE". I will call this function module with vba to load data from excel to sap with a Buttonclick. I have copied this function module and set it remotable. But i can´t call it from excel.
Can you give me some tips how can i
upload data from excel with vba by click a button.
The problem seems the function: call method cl_gui_frontend_services=>clipboard_import in the function module, because when i comment this function call the vba-call is true but no results.
How can I call the function module correct with vba?
Thanks a lot for your tips!!!!

/How to call a function in another PowerShell script

Hi All,
I want to use dot-sourced method to call the function from other script,While calling Function.ps1 from the second script there is a Null value in the beginning,
How can we ignore this null value or there is a better approach of doing it without using Import-Module.
#=======Function.ps1============
function add($x,$y)
$z=$x+$y
Write-Host "The value is $Z"
add $a $b
#===========End==================
The second script which has been dot-source to call the function
#================Main script==========
. C:\Users\Anirban\Desktop\Tester.ps1 |Out-Null
add 1 2
#================================
Regards,
Anirban Singha

Dot Sourcing is adding the function ADD to console environment and the script is acting like a module vs a script with parameters.
The Add $a $b line should be removed. (Where are $a and $b defined?)
They are not defined hence, "The Value is " blank line
#=======Function.ps1============
function add($x,$y)
$z=$x+$y
Write-Host "The value is $Z"
add $a $b
Should be
#=======Function.ps1============
function add($x,$y)
$z=$x+$y
Write-Host "The value is $Z"
PS C:\Test> . c:\tester.ps1
Add 1 2
Add 3 4
The value is 3
The value is 7
However the add can work without dot sourcing the script file by parameterizing the script
#=======Function.ps1============
Param ($a,$b) # Parameters to the script
function add($x,$y)
$z=$x+$y
Write-Host "The value is $Z"
Add $a $b # body of script
PS C:\Test>
C:\Tester.ps1 1 2
C:\Tester.ps1 3 4
The value is 3
The value is 7

How to call a C pointer from call library function node

I have a client/server application which the client I am trying to develop using Labview. When I use to communicate the server and the client using the program provided by the manufacter, the system works perfectly.
Now, I am trying to develop a system using labview, because I need to get another things.
I have the DLL provided by the manufacter and the .h too, so I can check the functions parameters. One of these functions needs to be called using a struct element. Probably, the function's DLL instantiates the elements of this struct. I use the call library function node to do it.
When I receive the data, the function returns to me the struct that I passed as a parameter before, and then I can read all the elements of the struct, except the string element that returns nothing. The struct elements that are numerical, I can read them perfectly.
Another thing that is important to say, is that the string data was not returned in fact by the DLL function that the system calls. I have to pass a pointer (I use it as unsigned 16 in Labview, but I tried before as string and unsigned 8) as a parameter, and this pointer will point to the memory location that the string is. When I try to read what is returned by the function, I can read nothing. The same function returns that the size of data that is returning is 17 bytes.
How can I solve it?
Thank you in advance

Did you take a look at the example that ships with LabVIEW that shows how to do all sorts of data passing to DLLs. I believe your situation is one of the examples listed. You can find the example VI in the "<LabVIEW install directory>\examples\dll\data passing" directory.

Program making a RFC call to Function Module not working in background

Hi All,
I have an ABAP Program which is used to do a reconciliation check between the R/3 and BI system for Invoice Data. Please find below the details of the program flow:
1.     Program counts the number of records in the DSO table and aggregates the Net_Value based on the date range (passed as parameters)
2.     Program calls a Function Module (RFC Call) which counts the number of records in the R/3 table and aggregates the Net_Value for the same date range
3.     Function Module Passes back the count values and aggregated Net_Value to the program
4.     Program compares the count and aggregated Net_Value from EDWH and MSP systems and sends an email mentioning whether the counts match or not
However we are facing an issue.
Whenever, we execute the program in dialog mode, it works fine and fetches results within 5-6 minutes. However if we schedule the program to run in background (parameters through a variant), it gives no results even after running for over 3-4 hours. We tried figuring it out yesterday but could not come to any conclusion. Since there is a RFC call being to the function module, we were wondering if we need to specify some other parameter as well.
Thanks & Regards
Dharmendra

RFC Call is a procedure for executing remote enables function modules. It is done via the 'Remote Enabled' radio button on the function module's attribute screen.

Passing arrays with Call Library Function does not work after application builder

Calling a DLL with Call Library Function which requires an array of data works correctly in Labview, but after building an exe with application builder, the call no longer works. Dereferecing the pointer in the DLL retuns all 0s and not the actual values.
Solved!

I did not run your code because it is a little unclear to me what it does.
Two things:
First, is the DLL you are calling the DLL-ified version of PopUpNames.vi? Then the problem is likely that the panel is not being built into the DLL.
When LabView builds an application / dll, it strips the front panel and block diagram from all VIs that it doesn't think need to show a panel at run time. This reduces file size and increases code security. The App Builder's panel inclusion logic can be overridden by Build Specifications -> Source File Settings -> Remove front panel. A better method is to put a property node on a control in a window you want to show marking it "visible"; this is sufficient to tell the App Builder it should keep the panel.
Currently Source File Settings shows "no dependencies" (clearly incorrect---another evil side effect of Express VIs I guess) but if you change the settings as shown below to keep ALL panels, one might hope the App Builder can figure it to keep the panel when it deconstructs the Express VI. (Alternatively convert the Express VI into a regular one.)
A second comment: I am a bit flummoxed at the larger goal here. You are calling LabView DLL from LabView, which doesn't make a lot of sense, so I assume your larger goal is to call LabView from C or vice-versa. In that case be aware that your DLL is x86 (32-bit) but you are passing 64-bit ints as your pointers. In this case it is 32-bit LabView with 32-bit pointers in embedeed in 64-bit containers calling 32-bit LabView with 32-bit pointers in embedeed in 64-bit containers, so it all works, but if your going to call this from C or whatnot you're going to have to follow that same design.
When calling C code the LabView Call Library Function does have a "unsigned pointer-sized integer" data type that always appears to be 64 bits in the dev env but which actually passes a 64 or 32-bit int to the DLL depending on the environment. The "pointer sized int" has to be 64 bits in the "LabView" part of the code because LabView's strong typing requires the data type to be determined at compile time. Casting all pointers to the largest data type in LabView makes it possible to write platform-independent code, but down at the Call Library level you still have to put the right number of bytes on the stack.
