Assigning part of a string dynamically to a component of a structure

Hello,
I want to take part of a string
example: value = string+10(7)
and assign this value to a structure. But I only have the fieldnames of the structure. I need something like the following
Assign value TO COMPONENT (fieldname) of structure
Thanks.
Regards, Lars.

do you have a set structure name you're dealing with or is that dynamic?
If it's the first scenario and, say, you were dealing with mara and field matnr you could do this:
data l_string.
field-symbols <field> type any.
l_string = in_string+10(18).
assign l_string to <field> casting type matnr.
(or assign l_string to <field> casting like mara-matnr).
now <field> is a 'matnr' type field.
If it's more complex please give some more info as I'm sure what you want can be done.

Assigning amount to months in Dynamic

Hi all,
I have a Dynamic ITAB, which is having month names as Dynamic columns. Now i want to assign some amount to each month.
so, in the assignment part, i write :
LOOP AT itab   INTO wa_itab.
    ASSIGN COMPONENT 'MNT_AMT' OF STRUCTURE <gwa_line> TO <gwa_field>.
    <gwa_field> = wa_itab-mnt_amt. " this is my Amount value
    DO l_terms TIMES. " l_terms is dynamic..
          ASSIGN COMPONENT wa_flname OF STRUCTURE <gwa_line> TO <gwa_field>.
      <gwa_field> = wa_itab-mnt_amt.
    ENDDO.
endloop.
but the amount is assigning to the last month only.
for ex: say i have months, starting from JANUARY to DECEMBER, in my case the amount is assigned to DECEMBer.
i want to assign amount to each month.
how to do that ?
Thanks
Kamala

Hi,
Do as below.
Assume the month names are stored in an internal table with header line it_months with a single field month. Which means the content of the table it_months will be the colomns of the final interanal table of structure <gwa_line>.
I assume there is a field which stores the month names in the internal table itab.
The modified code is below.
LOOP AT itab INTO wa_itab.
ASSIGN COMPONENT 'MNT_AMT' OF STRUCTURE <gwa_line> TO <gwa_field>.
<gwa_field> = wa_itab-mnt_amt. " this is my Amount value
LOOP AT it_months WHERE month = wa_itab-month.
    ASSIGN COMPONENT it_months-month OF STRUCTURE <gwa_line> TO <gwa_field>.
    <gwa_field> = wa_itab-mnt_amt.
ENDLOOP.
append <gwa_line> to <gt_line>.
endloop.
Hope this helps you,
Murthy.

OpenSQLException caught: Cannot assign a blank-padded string

Hi,
sometimes I get this exception, when updating a bo instance.
I didn't managed it to reproduce the error, because it is thrown in a complex background job.
Can anybody give me more information about the reason behind this?
Thanks,

Hi,
I got the same exception with the following code:
stringVarible="someString"+someMethod.getValue();
here getValue returns String.But sometimes it may return null valu also.when it returns null value,the same SQL Exception will occure becuse we are trying to save a string in SQL which is blank padded.
I think your code is also having the similar problem.

Converting part of the string to a date and subtract with sysdate.

HINT! In order solve this you must know how the pnr is assembled. Study this:
650323-5510, we only need the first six characters. They inform us about when the person (car owner) was born. In this case it is 23 Mars 1965. You have to use several oracle built-in-functions to solve this. Hint! Begin by converting part of the string to a date and subtract with sysdate.
select to_char(to_date(cast(pnr,'YYMMDDMM'))) from car_owner;
please what am i doing wrong. i need the result to be something like this
Hans, Rosenboll, 59,6 years.

Hi.
The main problem here is you have only last two digits of year. That could be the problem in a couple of years from now, when somebody born after 2k would get in to your database. For now if we ignore this problem the right solution would be :
<code>
SELECT months_between(trunc(SYSDATE),
to_date('19' || substr('650323-5510',
1,
6),
'YYYYMMDD')) / 12 years_old
FROM dual
</code>
Suppose you are expecting the age of the car owner as a result above code will give you that. One again notice the '19' I appended.
Best regards.

Replacing a part of a String with a new String

Hi everybody,
is there a option or a method to replace a part of a String with a String???
I only found the method "replace", but with this method I only can replace a char of the String. I don't need to replace only a char of a String, I have to replace a part of a String.
e.g.:
String str = "Hello you nice world!";
str.replace("nice","wonderfull");   // this won't work, because I can't replace a String with the method "replace"
                                    // with this method I'm only able to replace charsDoes anyone know some method like I need???
Thanks for your time on answering my question!!
king regards
IceCube-D

do check java 1.4 api, I think there is a method in it, however for jdk1.3 you can use
private static String replace(String str, String word,String word2) {
     if(str==null || word==null || word2 == null ||
           word.equals("") || word2.equals("") || str.equals("")) {
          return str;
     StringBuffer buff = new StringBuffer(str);
     int lastPosition = 0;
     while(lastPosition>-1) {
          int startIndex = str.indexOf(word,lastPosition);
          if(startIndex==-1) {
               break;
          int len = word.length();
          buff.delete(startIndex,startIndex+len);
          char[] charArray = word2.toCharArray();
          buff.insert(startIndex,charArray);
          str = buff.toString();
          int len2 = startIndex+word2.length();
          lastPosition = str.indexOf(word,len2);
     return buff.toString();

Can i assign an 'order by' clause dynamically in forms ??

I know it's possible to assign an 'order by' clause in reports with lexical parameter.
for example..
select A
from TABLE
where A is not null
&V_ORDERBY
In this, v_orderby might be 'order by name' like that,,,
can i assign an 'order by' clause dynamically IN FORMS ??
If you understan my question, please answer to me,,,ㅜㅜ

Have you tried this build-in function?
SET_BLOCK_PROPERTY('[BLOCK_NAME]', ORDER_BY, 'SORTCOL1, SORTCOL2...');
Where 'SORTCOL1, SORTCOL2...' are the table columns name.

JAXB unmarshalling error for " " token as part of xsd:string type element

We are getting a JAXB unmarshalling error:

Hi,
Did you tried to put & lt; (without space) instead of < ?

Addressing of part of the string in the container

Hello,
in a mail task I would like to print only some characters from a string - e.g. from second to tenth - is it possible to address some part of the string in the container as is usual in abap?
thx,
JJ

Hi,
Yes , it is possible. If you want to show only some part of the string value in mail description you can use normal abap string operations. For example: In Mail description if you want to show only a part variable VALUE. you can just use &VALUE+a(b)&. It will work !!
You can try it out !!

Delete part of a string question

Hello I have this String 12a
I need to get a the value 12 of it an make it an int
But the problem is that I don't know what the string is it can be
12
or 12 a
or 12a
It is for people to fill in there house address and this is the number part.
The string is like this String number ="\"12a\"";
Is it possible to look for a letter in a String and delete it if you only want ints???

Try this on the command line. Dealing with java.lang.NumberFormatException in cases where the number is too large is left as an exercise.

How Do I Mirror A Part Of A String?

Dear Programmers,
Does Anyone know how to mirror a string in C#:
For example: looks -> skool
Thank you in advance,

There is a Reverse method:
string s = "looks";
s = new string(s.Reverse().ToArray());
Best way to reverse a string:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/228038/best-way-to-reverse-a-string
And you can get a part of a string using the Substring method:

Using INSTR to extract part of the string ?

Morning guys and Happy Friday.
I have a situation where I have to pull out part of the string using a select statement.
Here is the string and I have to get the contents between the 2nd and 3rd backslash. So, basically, I have to extract marypoppins. Any ideas ?
C:\USERS\marypoppins\Docs\SpecificationHere is where I started ... and I have stumbled upon trying to find the 3rd backslash. I can easily start the INSTR at 4 because I know that it will always be 'C:\'
select select substr(C:\USERS\marypoppins\Docs\Specification',
                            INSTRB('C:\USERS\marypoppins\Docs\Specification', '\', 4), .....) from dual;

Additionally you can break it all up simply with regular expressions..
SQL> ed
Wrote file afiedt.buf
1 with t as (select 'C:\USERS\marypoppins\Docs\Specification' as txt from dual)
2 -- END OF TEST DATA
3 select rownum, regexp_substr(txt, '[^\]+',1,rownum) as element
4 from t
5* connect by rownum <= length(regexp_replace(txt,'[^\]'))+1

How to replace part of a String with another String :s ?

Got a String
" Team_1/Team_2/Team_3/ "
And I want to be able to rename part of the string (they are seperated by '/'), for example I want to rename "Team_3" to "Team C", and "Team_1" to "Team A" while retaining the '/' character how would I do this?
I have tried using String.replace(oldValue, newValue); but this doesnt work, any ideas?

What do you mean that it doesn't work? You do know that the method returns the modified string? The actual string that you invoke the method on is not altered.

CS3: grep search to replace part of a string

Can I do a grep search for a string of text but only replace a portion of the string while leaving the remainder intact?
iMac G5, OS 10.5.5

In addition to Eric:
Find "some search string", Replace "some replacement string " also replaces part of the string, not touching anything...
But the GREP search has two advantages: First, if you define formatting in the Replace field (italics, superscript, a character style), only the 'search'/'replacement' part will be affected, rather than the entire found string (as in regular search).
The second big advantage is you can use any regular GREP single character wildcard in the 'left' and 'right' (matching-but-not-marking) parts. A few useful examples: '\d' (digit), '\l' and '\u' (lowercase and uppercase), '.' (any character), or even '[a-f]' (lowercase 'a' to 'f'). The only limitation is that you cannot use the once, zero-or-more, or once-or-more modifiers -- the strings must have a fixed length. FYI, those three modifiers are, respectively, ?, *, and +.
This restriction does not apply to the 'middle' string, the one you are going to replace anyway -- use whatever GREP you want.

Is it possible to use the value of a string to reference a component in the

I'm fairly new to Java so this may be a stupid question!
Is it possible to use the value of a string to reference a component in the code? For example in the code below, Wall is a class holding 3 different arrays. The Robot class has an array called finishBricks. When the buildWall method is run it receives the integers width and height which are used to construct the dimensions string. I want to use this string to then load the appropriate Wall array into the finishBricks array.
I hope this makes sense! Any help would be greatly appreciated!
class Robot {
public double[][] finishBricks;
public void buildWall(int width, int height) {
Wall w = new Wall();
String dimensions = "Wall" width "x" +height;
this.finishBricks = w.xxxx; // where xxxx is replaced by whatever the String dimensions is
class Wall {
     public double[][] Wall4x2 = {
          {-30.00,-01.60,27.45},
