Reading InfoCube contents in ABAP

Dear,
I'm reading the contents of an InfoCube using FM RSDRI_INFOPROV_READ. This works fine, characteristics & keyfigures are coming through, only when I want the currency keys and units, the returned itab (E_T_DATA) contains additional records in stead of the currencies and units filled in the corresponding entries. Probably beacuse units are in a separate dimension. Does anyone know how I can populate the currency keys & units in the same records as where the keyfigures are stored?
Thanx in advance for your help!
Regards,
Marco

Hi Lakshman,
1.Files in application server are called 'Sequential files'. they are also called as 'Dataset'.
2.To handle sequential file we can follow the below said procedures.
 a. To open sequentioal file:
 OPEN DATASET <FILENAME> FOR { OUTPUT/INPUT/APPENDING}
 IN {TEXT MODE/BINARY MODE}
 b. To process ( reading/writing):
 TRANSFER <FIELD> TO <FILE NAME>,
 READ DATASET <FILENAME> INTO <FIELD>.
c. To close:
 CLOSE DATASET <FILENAME>
3. To see the application files tcode: AL11
4. Download the files from application server to presentation server : CG3Y
5. Presentation server to application server : CG3Z

Reading WebDAV Content from ABAP

Hello,
I like to read WebDAV Content from SAP NetWeaver Portal KM with ABAP.
For writing Content with WebDAV I found this post:
A small working example of how to use the Abap webdav client to write files
With Method GET_CONTENT from CL_SWDCL_NAMESPACE_CLIENT I can read single files, but what I need is a list with files and folders for a given path.
I also tried to use the Interface IF_SWDCL_BASIC_SEARCH_CLIENT, but I only get HTML-Errorcodes 400 or 422 since I don't know which parameters I need.
Maybe there is someone here who can help me to solve this problem.
Thank you.

Hello,
I face the same problem, did you already find a solution you can share?

The problem is that this FM is used to process IDOC to change its content. i supose that the IDOC is enqued when processed by this FM.
Do you know any other way to access IDOC data content in READ mode
Thank you in advance
Regards

Hi,
You can use the following FM.
IDOC_READ_COMPLETELY (Read IDoc Data)
IDOC_TYPE_COMPLETE_READ (Read IDoc Structure and Segments)
or
read the idoc data from database table edid4 and edids (idoc status))and edidc (idoc control data).

Read XML content in ABAP

Hi Experts,
I have a requirement, where I need to Parse the XML file after reading it from application server. Based on the data, I need to add some Tags to XML data.
Can we achieve the solution in ABAP.
Request your expertise.
Thank you,
Amit

Hi Amit,
Yes, you can achieve this in SAP either by creating a DOM representation of the XML document, or by the parser firing events as logical elements are encountered in a run through an XML document.
Refer the following documents for more details.
DOM-based method - Parsing an XML document DOM-based - Application Development on AS ABAP - SAP Library
Event Based - Parsing an XML document event-based - Application Development on AS ABAP - SAP Library
Refer this document for sample code - Parse an xml file and insert values in ABAP - ABAP Development - SCN Wiki

Read message content in ABAP reporting

Hi,
We need to read the message payload content for reporting purposes. I suppose this data is contained in tables SXMSCLUP and SXMSCLUR. (field CLUSTD)
The problem is that the content is in LRAW type.
Do you know how to convert this type to get a comprehensive content?
Thanks,
Laurent.

Hi,
Please use the function module SCMS_BINARY_TO_XSTRING to convert this data.
I have never tried it but probably this could help you out. Go through below discussion
Tables for XI messages
From http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/cf/21f2e5446011d189700000e8322d00/content.htm:
RAW: Uninterpreted byte string. Fields of type RAW may have only a maximum length of 255 in tables. If longer raw fields are required in tables, you should select data type LRAW.
There are some Java Classes for that..
Just look into this..
http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/codec/apidocs/org/apache/commons/codec/binary/BinaryCodec.html
http://www.stanford.edu/group/coursework/docsTech/oracle/oracle/sql/RAW.html
OR Try defining the message element type as xsd:base64Binary
thanks

How to access Infocube content using an ABAP program

Hi,
 I am trying to access infocube contents using a ABAP program in BW.
 It is easy to access ODS content as we have NEW DATA or ACTIVE DATA
 tables. Is there any way we can access Infocube content.
 I tried using the FACT table but it has only Keyfigure data.
thanks
arshad.

Hi,
I would suggest to use a transactionnal cube, even if you do not use BPS to feed it.
Then, you create a layout in transaction BPS0 (~ similar to a query), and you can access the cube content by simply using the SAP function API_SEMBPS_GETDATA.
This is easy and fast.

Reading HTML Content using Web Dynpro ABAP

Hello,
I was wondering if it is possible to read the content (HTML) behind a given URL using Web Dynpro ABAP. If so, are there any functions available to parse the HTML ? I have been asked to develop an application that requires going to a URL, reading the content, and formatting a table from that content for presentaion within Web Dynpro ABAP. The HTML of the URL is nothing more than a "Table of Contents" to existing documentation ( Word Documents )
Thank you for any help / advice you can provide
Larry

You can get the HTML returned in a table using fm RSFO_HTML_REQUEST2.
Once you have that, you can convert it to a string using any number of methods. CL_RSR_WWW_RENDERER=>TABLE_TO_STRING should work fine.
One option for parsing it would be to get it converted into an iXML object, but you might have to do quite a bit of manipulation first depending on what the html looks like. You can see more info here on iXML classes: [http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/de/86/8280ba12d511d5991b00508b6b8b11/frameset.htm|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/de/86/8280ba12d511d5991b00508b6b8b11/frameset.htm]
Otherwise I would just make use of find statements with regex patterns to sort through the html.

Restrict Data by Reading Infocube from ABAP

I have written ABAP in order to read the contents of the ODS. This code is in a BADI, and against a customer exit variable that is placed in the query.

Hi Sunmit
Thank you for your reply.
I try "TEST" in SE37 on this function module but it fails to execute.
I will try as you suggest to put this in ABAP code and see how it works.
If you can provide sample code that would be much appreciated.

BI Content Datasources' ABAP Logic

Dear Friends,
Where and how can I find the BI Content Datasources' ABAP Logic. I am particularly looking for the code for 2LIS_03_BX, 2LIS_03_BF and 2LIS_03_UM.
Thanks!

Hi,
Go to transaction RSO2 (Generic datasources) in ECC, put the datasource name in the transaction data field and click on display, then you will get a warning message at the bottom of the screen like below:
datasource 2lis_03_bf is extacted using function module mcex_bw_lo_api
likewise you can check for other datasources as well. Go to the function modules in SE37 and check the code there.

Read external mail through ABAP

Hi All,
i want read external mail ( say yahoo, gamil etc) through ABAP code with attachments.
Thanks and regards
JK

Hi,
Reading external email through pure ABAP won't be an easy task as far as I know. Because it needs user login and password authentication. Therefore it would be better to use something like cURL, which is a good tool for simulating a user's actions at a web browser. You can use cURL on a web server with php installed and after reading the emails pass the contents to ABAP.

Dear All,
How can i read the content repository images. I have uploaded the image and assigned the image for the employee.I have used the Web dynpro ABAP for attaching the interactive form. Now my request is to download the images from the content server to the interactive form i.e. when the manager is trying to look his page, he needs to see his image in the Interactive form when others their corresponding image is need to be shown. how can i do that?
Thanks

There is a particular case with sugested function, if content is generated on the fly by the server -php, cgi, etc.-
In this case, http server doesn´t knows total size of response data, so response shows a chunked transfer-encoding header and data is parted in chunks, each one starting with it´s size, and following the data.
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Date: Tue, 30 Apr 2013 12:43:41 GMT
Server: Apache/1.3.31 (Win32) mod_fastcgi/2.4.1
Connection: close
Transfer-Encoding: chunked
Content-Type: image/jpeg
f49
ÿØÿà JFIF
I´m using this function to decode parted response, with initial chunkedString with firs chunk size; in this case, f49:
PartsSeparator="\r\n";
function getPartedBody(partedBodyString) {
    var separatorPosition=partedBodyString.indexOf(PartsSeparator);
    var chunkSize=new Number("0x"+partedBodyString.substring(0,separatorPosition));
    separatorPosition+=PartsSeparator.length;
    var bodyString=new String("BINARY");
    bodyString="";
    if (chunkSize>0)
        bodyString=partedBodyString.substring(separatorPosition,separatorPosition+chunkSize)+
            getChunkedResponse(partedBodyString.substring(separatorPosition+chunkSize+PartsSeparator. length));
    return bodyString;
Hope this helps
regards
