About Type 'ANY' .

Hi All,
Have any know - any standard function module which uses TYPE ANY as a referece type.

Hi,
If you see the blank in Typing & Associtated Type fields against to the Parameter Field in any of the tabs(IMPORT,EXPORT..) then it means TYPE ANY. Which can take any TYPE as input/Output.
Example :
GUI_DOWNLOAD
TABLES
*" DATA_TAB

Call a ABAP FM using 'TYPE ANY'???

Hi Pros,
I need to call a FM in ABAP that has tables and attributes of type ANY or ANY TABLE.
I do not care about how, but I need to find a way to call such a FM from a Web Dynpro Aplication and transport these "any" types to java...
can anyone think of a way how to do that???
Thanks!
P.S.: Its an important task and it constitutes a notable part of my dissertation... So, helpful threads will be rewarded.

Hello,
so you can import the RFC_READ_TABLE as an adaptive RFC Model into your WebDynpro app. After that you are able to access the ModelContext node and read the return structures.
You also can use if you have a system below 4.6c which does not support Adaptive RFC the old JCO way. So u create with the SAP Enterprise Connector the needed Java classes to call inside the system using JCO.
But the deeper problem i see when you have to read the output strukture in very flat tables RFC_READ_TABLE can be a useful way but if you have complex tables with deep struktures in it you will have your problems to read the contents and concatinate them.
kind regards
Fabian

About type pools in ddic

i would like to about type pools pls let me why we use this and how to create these type pools and what is the advantage of using type pools
thanks in advacnce

hi,
<i>This is taken directly from the HELP.</i>
<b>Type Groups</b>
Before Release 4.5A, it was not possible to define standalone types in the ABAP Dictionary to which you could refer using a TYPE addition in an ABAP program. It was only possible to refer to flat structures. Structures in programs corresponded to the structures of database tables or structures in the ABAP Dictionary. In ABAP programs, you could only refer to database tables and structures in the ABAP Dictionary using LIKE. It was, however, possible to refer to individual components of the Dictionary type. Complex local data types such as internal tables or deep structures had no equivalent in the ABAP Dictionary. The solution to this from Release 3.0 onwards was to use type groups. Type groups were based on the include technique, and allowed you to store any type definitions globally in the Dictionary by defining them using TYPES statements.
The definition of a type group is a fragment of ABAP code which you enter in the ABAP Editor. The first statement for the type group <pool> is always:
<b>TYPE-POOL <pool>.</b>
After this came the definitions of data types using the TYPES statement, as described in Local Data Types in Programs. It was also possible to define global constants using the CONSTANTS statement. All the names of these data types and constants must begin with the name of the type group and an underscore:
In an ABAP program, you must declare a type group as follows before you can use it:
TYPE-POOLS <pool>.
This statement allows you to use all the data types and constants defined in the type group <pool> in your program. You can use several type groups in the same program.
Let the type group HKTST be created as follows in the ABAP Dictionary:
TYPE-POOL hktst.
TYPES: BEGIN OF hktst_typ1,
col1(10) TYPE c,
col2 TYPE i,
END OF hktst_typ1.
TYPES hktst_typ2 TYPE p DECIMALS 2.
CONSTANTS hktst_eleven TYPE i VALUE 11.
This type group defines two data types HKTST_TYP1 and HKTST_TYP2, as well as a constant HKTST_ELEVEN with the value 11.
Any ABAP program can use this definition with the TYPE-POOLS statement:
TYPE-POOLS hktst.
DATA: dat1 TYPE hktst_typ1,
dat2 TYPE hktst_typ2 VALUE '1.23'.
WRITE: dat2, / hktst_eleven.
The output is:
1,23
11
The data types defined in the type group are used to declare data objects with the DATA statement and the value of the constant is, as the output shows, known in the program.
In short, type-pools or type groups are like little include programs where you store a bunch of TYPES statements. You can then use these types instead of defining them manually in your program. All you need to do is include the type-pool in your program.

Type-pools: slis.
Data: qinfo_alv type slis_qinfo_alv.

I cannot find this 300GB "Backup" in the Finder, only in the Storage info when I check "About This Mac".
You are probably using Time Machine to backup your MacBook Pro, right? Then the additional 300 GB could be local Time Machine snapshots. Time Machine will write the hourly backups to the free space on your hard disk, if the backup drive is temporarily not connected. You do not see these local backups in the Finder, and MacOS will delete them, when you make a regular backup to Time Machine, or when you need the space for other data.
See Pondini's page for more explanation: What are Local Snapshots? http://pondini.org/TM/FAQ.html
I have restarted my computer, but the information remains the same. How do I reclaim the use of the 300GB? Why is it showing up as "Backups" when it used to indicate "Photos"? Are my photos safe on the external drive?
You have tested the library on the external drive, and so your photos are save there.
The local TimeMachine snapshot probably now contains a backup of the moved library. Try, if connecting your Time Machine drive will reduce the size of your local Time Machine snapshots.

Dynamic typeing of a type any structure at runtime.

Hello Gurus,
i have in my Method a TYPE ANY structure as import parameter declared, the structure has in the calling program a dictionary structure type.
Can i change (or assign) the new dictionary structure TYPE to the import parameter like for example as below in the third line ??
l_rcl_struc ?= cl_abap_typedescr=>describe_by_data( i_str_applparam ).
l_var_ddic_header = l_rcl_struc->get_ddic_header( ).
?? data: i_str_applparam type (l_var_ddic_header-tabname). ??
Greetings,
Ioan Constantin.

Hello,
the structure has in the calling program a dictionary structure type.
This is pretty basic then
DATA: DREF TYPE REF TO DATA.
FIELD-SYMBOL: <STRUC> TYPE ANY.
CREATE DATA DREF TYPE (l_var_ddic_header-tabname).
ASSIGN DREF->* TO <STRUC>.

Assigning a value to a field-symbol (workarea of type any)

Dear forumers,
I'm having a bit of difficulty in assigning a value to a field-symbol (it should be treated as a workarea of type any), but I'm given a syntax error instead:-
The data object "<LFS_WORKAREA>" has no structure and therefore no component called "LFMON".
What could have gone wrong and how may I resolve this (I must have missed something out)? I will still need <LFS_WORKAREA> to be defined as TYPE ANY.
Please help. I'd appreciate any inputs at all. Thanks.

Modify Syntax on Internal table of type ANY TABLE

Hi,
I have declared one internal table which is of type ANY TABLE.
In the Loop statement, I am trying to Modify that Internal table from WA.
Then I am getting one Error message
"You cannot use explicit or implicit index operations on tables with types "HASHED TABLE" or "ANY TABLE". "C_T_DATA" has the type "ANY TABLE".
Above code I have placed in method of a corresponding Class.
Can u please advise me on this..How to modify the Intenal table .
Thanks and Regards,
K.Krishna Chaitanya.

Hi Krishna,
the modify statement is obsolete.
You can always LOOP AT [itab] ASSIGNING <field-symbol>.
This makes the loop never slower, depending on the table structure faster or much faster.
If you know the table structure at run time, you can use a field-symbol of that type. If not, you can use a field-symbol TYPE any. Then you have to assign the components to field-symbol to modify them, i.e.
field-symbols:
<table_line> type any,
<matnr> type mara-matnr.
loop at itab assigning <table_line>.
assign component 'MATNR' of structure <table_line> to <matnr>.
clear <matnr>.
endloop.
This technique (available more than ten years) works incredibly fast. My estimate is that if SAP would change all the old standard programs that way and use it consequently in the new ones, the whole system would be 20 % faster because myriads of unnecessary copy operations of LOOP INTO would not happen.

Clemens.

How to use FIELD-SYMBOLS with TYPE ANY?

Hi!
I need to write a function which gets an import string parameter containing a field name like MATNR. In this function I have to "map" this string to a real variable so that I can access the field which is represented by the string. I tried it like this but it does not work:
FUNCTION ZTEST1.
""Lokale Schnittstelle:
*" IMPORTING
*"     REFERENCE(I_MARA) TYPE MARA
DATA: FIELD_NAME(30) VALUE 'I_MARA'.
FIELD-SYMBOLS : <FS_ANY> TYPE ANY.
Assign (FIELD_NAME) to <FS_ANY>.
Does not work (I guess because of 'type any')
WRITE: <FS_ANY>-MATNR.
ENDFUNCTION.
How can I solve this problem?
Thanks,
Konrad

When i type any word in address bar, it is search by "speedbit", How i can to change it into google searching ?

when i type any word in address bar, it is search by "speedbit", How i can to change it into google searching ?

When you ''reset'' keyword.url, you blank the entry. Firefox doesn't know what to do with the keyword you've typed in, so it adds www. to the front, and tacks .com to the end and takes you www.test.com.
You need a new search engine entry. '''Try making keyword.url = http://www.google.com/#q='''
Every once in a while a rogue search engine wrecks my browser, and I end up scrambling for this very answer. I hope the devs will create an easier fix for future versions.

Table with type ANY in function module

Hi all
I want to use a function module in different programs. I want to pass always a table and in a string the name of the structure, so that I can access the data with ASSIGN and the passed structure name.
For a structure I can use the type ANY, but if I want to use a table in a function module, I need to define a table type.
Is there a way to define a tabletype with the type ANY? A Workaround would be fine too.
Thanks and best regards!
Christian

Hi Christian,
ANY TABLE is used to type a parameter, or field symbol, that can be a table of any type or structure.
ANY is used to type a parameter, or field symbol, that can be any type. You can't, however, use any table operations on a parameter/field-symbol typed as ANY. For that, you have to use ANY TABLE.
The same applies to ANY. You can pass to the method a data object, without specifying its type (i.e, in dynamic programs).
Suppose that I need to split a line into a table, but I don't know the structure of this line:
I have a method:
codeMETHOD split_line_in_table IMPORTING im_line TYPE ANY
EXPORTING ex_table TYPE ANY TABLE.
[/code]
codeMETHOD split_line_in_table.
SPLIT im_line AT separator INTO TABLE ex_table.
ENDMETHOD.[/code]
Now, i can pass this method a line of ANY structure and get a table without specifying its structure.
cheers,
Hema.
