Help on Call Transformation

Hi
i have created a RFC and thru that i am submitting a report and calling that RFC in my EP.
i make use of the FM "WWW_HTML_TO_LISTOBJECT" so that data mirror image of my report is also displayed in my portal.
But the problem is i can't control it, For eg: if i click on "download to excel" it isnt working properly.
how should i overcome this problem.
Once Mr.Raja (one of the sdn member) suggested to use
"call transformation" method, can you be specific to that, how should i use that in ALV report. where should i write "call transoformation" method. A sample code would be helpful.
Thank you

Call Transformation
is for transforming XML using XSLT into a xml/html/abap itab, etc formats.
of transforming abap itab to xml format.
you cannot convert the html returned by your program into your required format using this mechanism.
if you want to use this feature , then your report should be returning XML output.
possible tranformation scenarios
from XML to XML (only for XSLT),
from XML to ABAP (for XSLT and simple transformations),
from ABAP to XML (for XSLT and simple transformations),
from ABAP to ABAP (only for XSLT),

HELP IN CALL TRANSFORMATION

hi all,
the xml structure which i use in call transformation is below my problem is that some time i dont get the data for some fields(marked as bold) in the xml file which i get. for example if i get 10 orders in a file for one order i dont get the codes part and wheni use CALL TRANSFORMATION the data below the codes (in the xml structure) is not been filled in the internal table.
wht should i do to get the data into my table.

Creating XML file Using Call Transformation

Hello Friends,
 I have searched before posting thread, couldnt find anything.
 I am creating an XML file using Call Transformation. My internal table has 3 date fields and some other fields. For some records I dont have values for the date fields. In that case my XML file is giving the date value as 0000-00-00 since I declared it as Date type. This value 0000-00-00 is not accepted by the middle ware as the valid date. I can not change it as String type as per the suggestion.
In that case I am advised to skip printing the date field tag if it doesnt have value.
 Is there any way to skip the date field if it is empty. Any Suggestions please ?.
Thanks
Lakshmi.

Hi,
I had exactly the same problem before. When you call a transformation there is an option called initial_components. According to SAP if you use initial_components = 'SUPRESS' the empty fields should not being generated on the XML.
Now, this didn't work for me and I have seen some people with the same problem. Here is how I solved this (maybe not the best way but it worked):
First: My fields are all CHAR in my table
Second: In the transformation, you can use conditional transformation to not display a tag if field is empty, here a piece of my transformation (I am using simple transformations):
 <tt:root name="ROOT"/>
 <tt:cond s-check="not-initial(ref('ROOT.L1_NM')) or not-initial(ref('ROOT.L2_NM'))">
 <TRNMTR_NM>
 <tt:cond s-check="not-initial(ref('ROOT.L1_NM'))">
 <l1_nm>
 <tt:value ref="ROOT.L1_NM"/>
 </l1_nm>
 </tt:cond>
 <tt:cond s-check="not-initial(ref('ROOT.L2_NM'))">
 <l2_nm>
 <tt:value ref="ROOT.L2_NM"/>
 </l2_nm>
 </tt:cond>
 </TRNMTR_NM>
 </tt:cond>
As you can see, I first check if the fields have values.
Hope it helps

If we create a ZZZ transformation of type ST, it would be something like this (I didn't test). Note that I concatenated the date and time, because field operations in ST are not possible (we should use XSLT instead, but it's counter performant):

This is not the complete XML file as it exceeds the 15000 characters and then I cann't post here. So I have deleted much part of it.
The hierarchy is as following: Shipment->Delivery->Order->Carton->Item.
I have created a XSLT for it which is working fine.
But when I execute my report program it gives CX_SY_XSLT_FORMAT_ERROR saying that
Transformation error: Non-canonical structure of element name XML_OUTPUT.

XML file to Internal table through XSLT - Call Transformation

Hi Friends,
I am trying to work a scenario where i have a simple XML file and i need to convert the data in to an internal table. When i execute the XSLT seperately, it works fine. I get the output, but when it is invoked through a ABAP program, i am getting the error "The called method START_XSLT_DEBUGGER of the calss CL_WB_XSLT_DEBUGGER returned the exception CX_XSLT_FORMAT_ERROR"

I able to get if declare only for BL and BH in separate xslt transformations.
Regards,
Simha

Hello Mithun,
when you use the call transformation statement you have to specifiy the xslt transformation used. As a first step you usually use the transformation with the name ID. This is a special transformation for making the asXML representation of abap data. Unfortunately if you look into this transformation you find the following:
<xsl:transform version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
>
<xsl:strip-space elements="*"/>
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:copy-of select="."/>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:transform>
If I remember correctly when you use another transformation this will first call the ID transformation and after this the specified one. So it should not be possible to just copy ID transformation and remove the line. I'll have to think again how to avoid the behaviour.
Best Regards
Roman

Problem with CALL TRANSFORMATION xml - abap

Hello!
I got the following problems using call transformation to read a xml-file to local abap datatype!
Simple xml file for testing:
<BMECAT>
<HEADER>
asdf
</HEADER>
</BMECAT>
XSLT file:
<xsl:transform xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:sap="http://www.sap.com/sapxsl" version="1.0">
<xsl:template match="/">
 <xsl:value-of select="./BMECAT/HEADER"/>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:transform>
The xslt transformation works with xslt-tester!
My Source:
DATA: xmlupl TYPE string,
outputx TYPE XSTRING,
lv_string TYPE string.
* in xmlupl my xml import is stored
CALL FUNCTION 'SCMS_STRING_TO_XSTRING'
EXPORTING
text = xmlupl " variable type string
IMPORTING
buffer = outputx. " variable type xstring
TRY .
 CALL TRANSFORMATION path_to_xslt_file
 SOURCE XML outputx
 RESULT HEADER = lv_string.
CATCH cx_xslt_exception INTO xslt_error.
 data: xslt_message type string .
 xslt_message = xslt_error->get_text( ).
ENDTRY.
After debugging in xslt_message is stored the following text:
"The element abap was expected for the XML-ABAP transformation"
Can anyone help me with this problem?
Regards,
Daniel

hi

Just look at this piece of code, I think it should help you.

XSLT-ABAP using Call Transformation

Hello Friends,
I am new to this XSLT-ABAP transformation. I went through the blogs and forums and got a fair bit of idea on this. Now, i am trying to create a simple program/ xslt transformation to test the scenario. Once this is successfull i need to implement this in our project.
I am not sure, where and what i am doing wrong. Kindly check the below given XSLT/ XML/ ABAP Program and correct me.
My XML File looks as given below:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
- <List>
- <ITEM>
<ITEMQUALF>ITEM1</ITEMQUALF>
<MATERIAL>MAT1</MATERIAL>
</ITEM>

<ITEMQUALF>ITEM2</ITEMQUALF>
<MATERIAL>MAT2</MATERIAL>
</ITEM>
- <ITEM>
<ITEMQUALF>ITEM3</ITEMQUALF>
<MATERIAL>MAT3</MATERIAL>
</ITEM>
</List>
My XSLT Transformation looks as given below:
<xsl:transform xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:sap="http://www.sap.com/sapxsl" version="1.0">
<xsl:strip-space elements="*"/>

 <xsl:for-each select="ITEM">
 <xsl:element name="ITEM">
 <xsl:element name="ITEMQUALF">
 <xsl:value-of select="ITEMQUALF"/>
 </xsl:element>
 <xsl:element name="MATERIAL">
 <xsl:value-of select="MATERIAL"/>
 </xsl:element>
 </xsl:element>
 </xsl:for-each>
 </List>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:transform>
My ABAP program looks as below:

 RESULT outtab = t_test.
CATCH cx_root INTO gs_rif_ex.
 gs_var_text = gs_rif_ex->get_text( ).
 MESSAGE gs_var_text TYPE 'E'.
ENDTRY.
When i run this ABAP program to fetch the data from XML in to Internal table, i get the error message:
Incorrect element List for XML-ABAP transformation
I am really not sure how to proceed further. Could any one help me on this?
Note: Please do not paste the same links, as i have gone through most of them.
Thank you.
Best Regards,
Ram.

Problem with Call Transformation (ABAP to XML)

Hello
   I call the tranformation function to serialize. I want to convert a ABAP internal table into XML.One of the column type is of time(t). On transformation, the values are changed.
Ex : If I have a value of 000009 (time format), on calling transformation it gets converted to 00:00:09. I dont want this conversion. I want to have the value as it is. I cant change the column data type from time to string.

Call Transformation

Hi ,
another and last question, again question and possible answers, which ones are true and which ones are false ?
In which cases can the ABAP statement CALL TRANSFORMATION be used? (T/F)
- To transform as iXML document object into and ABAP data structure using
XSLT.
- To transform an XML document contained in a string into another XML document
using and XSLT program.
- To get canonic XML display of an ABAP data structure.
- To transform an XML document contained in an xstring into another XLM document
using an ST program (Simple Transformation).
- To transform and ABAP data structure into an SML document using ST.
Thanks for your help,
Arturo

Kindly give me the expalnation to each statement with either True or False.

CALL TRANSFORMATION is a new language element in ABAP that we can use to call up the transformation.
The type of transformation:
XML to XML
XML to ABAP
ABAP to XML or
ABAP to ABAP is already determined by the two additions SOURCE and RESULT in CALL TRANSFORMATION.
Check this link for more details.

XSLT and Call transformation

Hi
Using XSLT and Call transformation (XSLT scheme) to convert XML file to html the problem is that line breaks in xml are ignored when passing the call tranformation.
Note in xml look like:
<com:Note><![CDATA[
Serie 87% 0,000000
Amount in this period 01-01-2006 - 01-07-2006 - 180 days
Currency 16.267.117,38 DKK
Loan DKK 14.332.700,00
Debt 7.358.534,23
Indexsfactor 226,230
]]></com:Note>
When HTML displayed in sap, - note is just a long string which continue out of the screen. Note looks like:Serie 87% 0,000000Amount in this period 01-01-2006 - 01-07-2006 - 180 daysCurrency 16.267.117,38 DKKDebt 7.358.534,23Indexsfactor 226,230
What to do ? Any ideas ?

hi Jan,
Check out the link
http://www.topxml.com/code/default.asp?p=3&id=v20031025170911&ms=20&l=xsl&sw=categ
This link contains a file that contains an importable xslt stylesheet with two templates. The first is a text wrap template that breaks texts at carriage returns. You need to modify the xslt.
[code]<xsl:template name="text.wrap">
 <xsl:param name="texttowrap"/>
 <xsl:variable name="textlength" select="string-length($texttowrap)"/>
 
 <xsl:if test="$textlength > 0">
 <xsl:choose>
 <xsl:when test="contains($texttowrap,$CR)">
 
 <xsl:variable name="linebeforefirstbreak" select="substring-before($texttowrap,$CR)"/>
.................[/code]
Hope this helps.

CALL TRANSFORMATION on XSLT creates leading 0 in RESULT XML

Hello,
calling the transformation in one step I got a cx_xslt_format_error-exception. I was reading in the forum to split the transformation into two calls:
     CALL TRANSFORMATION z_bv_xml2abap
      SOURCE XML gt_itab
      RESULT XML lv_string.
      CALL TRANSFORMATION z_bv_xml2abap
      SOURCE XML lv_string
      RESULT (gt_result_xml).
The result xml from the first transformations show two things I don't understand. The first character is ¶ (0xB6). This is displayed as # and throws an error when I try to call this in a tool like XMLSpy. So this could be the reason for the xc_xslt_format_error exception. But I don't know where it comes from.
The second confusing thing is that the lv_string shows UTF-16 and not UTF-8. Where can I change this.
Help would be really great,
Vanessa
