No boolean in ABAP?

Hi,
I am just starting at the tip of the ABAP / SAP iceberg. Any particular reason why the one-bit-length boolean data type not featuring in ABAP?
Thanks.

Any idea, why SAP has different "Definition" of Boolean (X=True, -=False, Space=Unknown) rather than industry standards True and False.

Use of Boolean in Abap Object

Gentlemans!!
I'm wondering if the boolean type data exists in Abap Object and if it used when we define methods.
I used to use it in C++ and Java and I still don't know if this it's used or even exists in Abap Objects.
Thanks for your help.
Regards,
Polak.

Hello,
The boolean type don't exist in ABAP.
In ABAP we used to refer to the type-pool ABAP where exists a type ABAP_BOOL (character length 1) where X = true and space = false. To refer to these values there are two constants: ABAP_TRUE and ABAP_FALSE.
To access the type-pool use the transaction SE11 select Type Group and enter ABAP.

Boolean data element in ABAP Dictionary

Dear friends,
Is it possible to have a Boolean variable defined in the domain without having the value range ???
Regards,
Vivek K

Hi Vivek,
If you are speaking of a boolean VARIABLE .. it has a default value range.
However, I do not know what is meant by boolean variable in a DOMAIN.
Anyway, as far as I can think of a default value range should be associated with it.

Char1 in ABAP Side & Boolean in Java Side

Hello,
When importing a BAPI at Java side, I have a problem to deal with a field of type char1 (referenced to a domain with two fixed values : 'X' et ' ') which is becoming a boolean at Java Side.
I found posts talking about the same problems but I didn't find answers.
Have anyone encountred this problem before?
Thanks in advance for your help,
ImaneA

Thank you John & Srikanth for your replies.
My issue is that the Java side doesn't recognize the 'X' or ' '. It means that for Java side, the field is always empty.
We tried a domain with no values instead of 'X' and ' ' but it still doesn't recognize the content of field even if it is a String now and no longer a boolean in java side.
Do you have any idea how to solve this problem?
Thanks in advance for your help.

Imane

Getting JS variable value in ABAP variable

hi experts,
I am fairly new to ABAP programming so please bear with me. To my issue.
I am creating a BSP which will read from the tax number table in CRM into an itab.
Next it loops into an wa and then passes each tax number through a javascript/JQuery API to validate the number.
The JSON response then comes back and is stored in a JS variable.
I am unclear how to get this into an ABAP variable so I can handle as needed. I have read some posts but they seem to be created for those ABAP experts which I am not there yet.
Any help is most appreciated.
thank you kindly!
Chris

Thanks for the reply Kiran.
I am still stuck where I try to create the hidden field, assign the JS variable value to it and then retrieve on server side using ABAP.
I read some places where it mentions accessing in the controller but this is not specific enough for me to know what to do. Here is a snippet of my JS/html code.
<form id="api">
<div><input type="hidden" name="json" id="json" value="" /></div>
var json = data;
document.getElementById("json").value = json;
document.api.submit();
</form>
I am using a Jquery api to get a boolean value and storing it in the json variable. then I want to pass that value to an ABAP variable. I did maintain a page attribute of json type STRING as well. I also tried maintaining a controller class attribute of the same. I did not redefine any controller class methods.
Your help is most appreciated.
thx
Chris

Pricing : ABAP to Java conversion help needed

Hi all.
I am basically an ABAP developer. My recent assignment needs some java coding.
It will be very helpful if we anybody helps me in finding the corresponding pricing fields in java.
The abap code is as follows
check : xkomv - kgrpe = ' '.
check: xkomv - xkbetr ne 0.
check : komp - kpein ne 0.
if komp - netwr < 0.
komp - netpr = 0 - komp - netpr.
endif.
xkwert = (        ( ( komp - netpr * ( 100000 + xkomv - xkbetr))     / 100000)
komp-mglme / komp-kumza * komp - kumne / 1000 / komp - kpein )
- komp-netwr.
Please help in converting this abap code to its corresponding java code.
Thanks and Regards

Splash screen ABAP (Was 6.20) SAPGui 6.20

I love splash screens. A small pop-up window with a picture should come for say 5 to 10 seconds and disappear by a timer task.
Giving such timer splash screens at START or END makes the application attractive. I do it in VB PB & Java.

Error Consuming a webservice from ABAP

Hi all,
I am consuming an external webservice from abap. I created teh proxy using WSDl file. While testing teh service its giving an exception like this-
"JAXB unmarshalling exception: Unable to create an instance of de.*******v2.MeldungType; nested exception is javax.xml.bind.UnmarshalExcept
ion: Unable to create an instance of de.****.MeldungType# - with linked exception:#[java.lang.InstantiationException]"
With a soapfaultcode: 1..
can any one help out in arriving at teh reason for this..
Regards
Sandeep

I've seen lots of unmarshalling errors whilst trying to consume web services via Web Dynpro Java... Usually, it was due to an inconsistency between the WSDL file being used and the underlying web service definition. It might be worth checking the WSDL you are using is correct and up to date, in case the underlying service interface has changed.
Also worth checking if you have any simple boolean type parameters defined as part of the service interface - they have to have a value assigned when you call the service and cannot be null.
HTH.

How to use BI in netweaver 2004(trial edition for abap)?

I am new in BI field. I downloaded the netweaver 2004(trial edition for abap)and installed it on my laptop. But the system said I am not authorized to use BI function:(
how can I use it, thank you

Hi Phani,
You can test your TREX server by executing the following step:
Log on to your TREX server and open up the TREX console which you can find in the TREX program folder. Normally you are now inside the python_support folder.
Execute the following script by typing: "python runInstallationText.py" and hit Enter.
The script carries out the following tests:
● Deleting any test indexes that were generated for a previous script run
● Creating a test index
● Indexing documents
● Testing search functions
● Exact, error-tolerant (fuzzy), and linguistic searches
● Search using Boolean operators such as AND and OR
The results are displayed at the end of the script run. You see the tested calls and their statuses (OK or Failed).
When you run the script for the first time, the call Delete Index has the status Failed. This is because there was no existing text index to be deleted. If this is the only cell with the status Failed, the test was successful.
Below you will see the final output generated by the test script. As stated near the bottom of this screenshot our TREX is running very well or not if there is a problem.
Best regards,
Tom.

Adobe interactive form in wd abap

hi,
When i set the enabled property to true for the interactive form in WD ABAP, it either doesnt display the form or the form comes in display mode,
Can you please tell me know if any,
Thanks,
Saujanya

Hi Saujanya,
The interface of the UI element InteractiveForm contains the method
SET_LEGACY_EDITING_MODE, which in turn contains a Boolean parameter. The form is
then ready for input when
● The parameter has the value X.
● The property enabled in the UI element InteractiveForm is selected.
The following code fragment shows how this input readiness can be set up:
method WDDOMODIFYVIEW.
data: LR_INTERACTIVE_FORM type ref to CL_WD_INTERACTIVE_FORM,
LR_METHOD_HANDLER type ref to IF_WD_IACTIVE_FORM_METHOD_HNDL.
check first_time = abap_true.
LR_INTERACTIVE_FORM ?= VIEW->GET_ELEMENT(u2018INTERACTIVE_FORM_1u2019).
*Replace INTERACTIVE_FORM_1 with Property 'ID' of your UI element InteractiveForm
LR_METHOD_HANDLER ?= LR_INTERACTIVE_FORM->_METHOD_HANDLER.
LR_METHOD_HANDLER->SET_LEGACY_EDITING_ENABLED( abap_true ).
endmethod.

ABAP and Java mapping

Wanted to confirm my understaing for ABAP and JAVA mapping.
Am I correct in my assumption that these mapping techniques can be used only if input and ouput is in XML format ?
So if XI is receiving a flat comma separated text/non-XML file or an IDOC for that matter and output is NOT in XML format, say again flat text file or IDOC, I cannot use above two techniques?
All the docs I have read suggest that 'Execute' method is called when XML file/data is received, paresed using DOM/SAX/JAXB (for Java mapping) or IXML lib (for ABAP mapping) and then create a output XML file.
-Thanks in advance

Hi Bob,
Here you have a code sample for deescaping. I have have written this code a couple of time ago. The incoming file can be any text format. It might be XML, but not necessarily.
The main method is not reqired, but good for testing.

Component Configuration in Webdynpro ABAP

Hello,
I created a Webdynpro ABAP Application which works fine . Then I created a Component Configuration to hide a particular UI Element . Now how can I test it? Also I tried creating a iview on Portal and point to the Application name and Configuration name but still that UI Element shows up.
What is the right way of doing this.?
Thanks

Hi,
To test the web Dynpro Configuration
1) Right click the web dynpro component and select the Create/Change configuration item
2) A new application configuration window opens in that window give your Web Dynpro component name and in the Configuration id give a Name for your configuration and save it
3) After saving a new window opens with list of created configuration find your config file and select it and click on the go to configuration button
4) Here you will find the component name and Configuration id which we have already given
5) Choose change button here you will see Attribute, Component Defined and Web dynpro built-in tabs
6) select the context attribute which you have created in the custom controller with type boolean and set it to false to hide it
save the configuration and test it.
Note: To test the Configuration an configured application will be created under the web dynpro application right click and select test.
You can refer [this|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/b52e13c3-0901-0010-8fa6-d11a51821b7c?quicklink=index&overridelayout=true] link.
