Attribute 'Unicode checks active'

Hi,
we just made an upgrade from 4.6 to ECC 6.0.
The unicode conversion check and the unicode conversion itself is done.
Each Abap program that has the attribute 'Unicode checks active' not checked ( off ), is causing a syntax error in the new system. Up till now we manually adjusted each attribute of each program, just to get the basic business transactions running.
My question is: what went wrong, and what is the best way of solving all this errors at once ?
Thanks in advance,
Rolf

Rolf,
I'm using ECC 6.0. I tried to do what you suggested for setting unicode flag active for a bunch of programs. Unfortunatelly, I'm bumping in the following problem:
I run UCCHECK and I get "green light" for some objects that don't have unicode flag active yet. So I click on the correspondent line and after on "Set Unicode Attribute" button. I get a pop-up saying that unicode is set active and program is written into a transport request... i click on OK. Another pop-up comes up. "Set Unicode Flag?", I click on Yes. Then, another pop-up comes up saying "Set Flag for Error-Free Programs Only?". I tried Yes, and I get this information message "The current system is not the original system". I tried also NO, but same message is shown.
Any idea on how to get it right?
Thanks.

Include programs are not having Unicode checks active check box ?

Hi all,
Why the Include programs are not having Unicode checks active check box ?
Thanks in advance

Hi KR,
First of all, Because of include programs not executable by any where, its mandatory to attach all the includes to one main program which is to be usefull for business or enduser purpose. Here only unicode concept will occurs whether the server is being used in only one country or many. if its used in only one country no need to go for unicode active checks, iff the server is used in more than one country, its mandatory to go for unicode checks active.

Unicode Check Active

Hi All,
I want to know about "Unicode Check Active" in ABAP Editor Program Attributes.I don't know anything about this.I want to know
What is Unicode Check Active.
How to Activate this Check Box.
what is meant by Code Pages.
What is UTF-8 UTF-16 & UTF-32.
What is the Use of It.
In ABAP Code the Unicode Check Doesn't Support the some syntax like Open Data set and Describe Lines like that what are all the syntax in ABAP it doesn't support.
Can anybody give me the clear idea about this.So, it will be very helpful to me.This is very urgent.Surely i will reward more points.
Thanks,
Swapna.

Hi,
Unicode Check is one of the latest enhancement in SAP which has been done so as to provide SAP product in almost all the language that is spoken in the world.
A program as to be made Unicode check Active in its attribute so that it can be used in Unicode enabled SAP system.
what is unicode?
From Release 6.10, ABAP supports multi-byte coding for characters in Unicode. Prior to Release 6.10, ABAP used only character sets that were based on single-byte codes such as ASCII and EBCDIC or double-byte codes, such as SJIS and BIG5.
what is unicode enabled program?
A Unicode-enabled ABAP program is a program in which all Unicode checks are effective. Such a program returns the same results in a non-Unicode system as in a Unicode system .In order to perform the relevant syntax checks, you must activate the Unicode flag in the screens of the program and class attributes.
Type of errors in unocode check.
This switch to Unicode affects all statements where an explicit or implicit assumption is made about the internal length of a character. If you use these statements in a program that is designed to exploit the Unicode capabilities of the runtime environment, they must be checked and changed if necessary. Once a Unicode-enabled program has been changed accordingly, it behaves in the same way in both Unicode and non-Unicode systems. You can develop programs in a non-Unicode system (NUS) and then import them into a Unicode system
UNICODE CHECK ACTIVE:
You need to use the transaction UCCHECK.
The report documentation is here
ABAP Unicode Scan Tool UCCHECK
You can use transaction UCCHECK to examine a Unicode program set for syntax errors without having to set the program attribute "Unicode checks active" for every individual program. From the list of Unicode syntax errors, you can go directly to the affected programs and remove the errors. It is also possible to automatically create transport requests and set the Unicode program attribute for a program set.
Some application-specific checks, which draw your attention to program points that are not Unicode-compatible, are also integrated.
Selection of Objects:
The program objects can be selected according to object name, object type, author (TADIR), package, and original system. For the Unicode syntax check, only object types for which an independent syntax check can be carried out are appropriate. The following object types are possibilities:
PROG Report
CLAS Class
FUGR Function groups
FUGX Function group (with customer include, customer area)
FUGS Function group (with customer include, SAP area)
LDBA Logical Database
CNTX Context
TYPE Type pool
INTF Interface
Only Examine Programs with Non-Activated Unicode Flag
By default, the system only displays program objects that have not yet set the Unicode attribute. If you want to use UCCHECK to process program objects that have already set the attribute, you can deactivate this option.
Only Objects with TADIR Entry
By default, the system only displays program objects with a TADIR entry. If you want to examine programs that don't have a TADIR entry, for example locally generated programs without a package, you can deactivate this option.
Exclude Packages $*
By default, the system does not display program objects that are in a local, non-transportable package. If you want to examine programs that are in such a package, you can deactivate this option.
Display Modified SAP Programs Also
By default, SAP programs are not checked in customer systems. If you also want to check SAP programs that were modified in a customer system (see transaction SE95), you can activate this option.
Maximum Number of Programs:
To avoid timeouts or unexpectedly long waiting times, the maximum number of program objects is preset to 50. If you want to examine more objects, you must increase the maximum number or run a SAMT scan (general program set processing). The latter also has the advantage that the data is stored persistently. Proceed as follows:
Call transaction SAMT
Create task with program RSUNISCAN_FINAL, subroutine SAMT_SEARCH
For further information refer to documentation for transaction SAMT.
Displaying Points that Cannot Be Analyzed Statically
If you choose this option, you get an overview of the program points, where a static check for Unicode syntax errors is not possible. This can be the case if, for example, parameters or field symbols are not typed or you are accessing a field or structure with variable length/offset. At these points the system only tests at runtime whether the code is sufficient for the stricter Unicode tests. If possible, you should assign types to the variables used, otherwise you must check runtime behavior after the Unicode attribute has been set.
To be able to differentiate between your own and foreign code (for example when using standard includes or generated includes), there is a selection option for the includes to be displayed. By default, the system excludes the standard includes of the view maintenance LSVIM* from the display, because they cause a large number of messages that are not relevant for the Unicode conversion. It is recommended that you also exclude the generated function group-specific includes of the view maintenance (usually L<function group name>F00 and L<function group name>I00) from the display.
Similarly to the process in the extended syntax check, you can hide the warning using the pseudo comment ("#EC *).
Applikation-Specific Checks
These checks indicate program points that represent a public interface but are not Unicode-compatible. Under Unicode, the corresponding interfaces change according to the referenced documentation and must be adapted appropriately.
View Maintenance
Parts of the view maintenance generated in older releases are not Unicode-compatible. The relevant parts can be regenerated with a service report.
UPLOAD/DOWNLOAD
The function modules UPLOAD, DOWNLOAD or WS_UPLOAD and WS_DOWNLOAD are obsolete and cannot run under Unicode. Refer to the documentation for these modules to find out which routines serve as replacements.
Reward Points if found helpfull..
Cheers,
Chandra Sekhar.

Unicode Check Active For SAP Script

How to set Unicode Check Active attribute for SAP Script and Smartform

Hello,
the Unicode Check Active flag is a program attribute. You can set this flag to check the syntax of an ABAP program. It is not available for SAPScript forms or SAP Smartforms. The attached screenshot shows how the flag is set in the attributes of an example program.

Getting errors while conversion of ABAP program into Unicode check

Hi,
I changed the one ABAP program for some requirement and try to save it, it is giving error that the program is not unicode compatible.I set the unicode checks active box under Attributes and again activate it .It is not allowing to concatenate the two variables which is declared as follows :
constants: c_tab    type x value '09',      "tab character
                  c_cr     type x value '0D'.       "carriage return character
I tried to use field symbols but still giving error (code after change)
constants: c_tab    type x value '09',      "tab character
                  c_cr     type x value '0D'.       "carriage return character
field-symbols : <f_c_tab> type any,
                        <f_c_cr> type any.
Assign c_tab to <f_c_tab> CASTING type c.
Assign c_cr to <f_c_cr> CASTING type c.
error :The length of "C_TAB" in bytes must be a multiple of the size of a Unicode character (regardless of the size of the Unicode character).
pls guide me so that I can cancatenate the c_tab and c_cr variables

Hi,
Tab Character ----->Data: tab type c value cl_abap_char_utilities=>HORIZONTAL_TAB.
Carraige Return---->Data : cr(2) type c value cl_abap_char_utilities=>cr_lf..
You will not be able to use the concatenate statement for hexadecimal variables in unciode system.
Try using the above equivalent character variables. In unicode system avoid using hexadecimal variables wherever possible

Regarding updating unicode check flag to all z* programs at once

Hi all,
We are upgrading from 4.7 to ecc 6.0   ,
we have created one pilot server where we have installed ecc 6.0 and all prduction data is copied on it .
OUR basis team has done that process and it is done with unicode check active ,
But   all Z programs such as few customs programs are still non-unicode as they are old programs so want
to update unicode check flag which is pressent in attributes of program .
MANUALly you can do for each program and activate that i know ,but how to do it all at once .
Because when we Excecute UCCheck we get all programs   which are nonunicode   , in which it shows that programs The system found no Unicode syntax errors . whichneeds to be just do unicode check flag active and activate the program .
How that can be done at once all .
Regards
Deepak.

Hi ,
My problem is solved ....
i found that after executing UCCHECK transaction code ,in display you will find one button on rigth side
"set unicode attribute"   . after selecting no of programs at once we can press that butoon .
The Unicode flag is set for the selected programs. The programs are
written into interactively selectable transport requests and generated.
You must later release the transport requests.
I hope this will be helpfull to all.
Regards
Deepak.

Unicode Checks for Include Types

Hi All,
How can we check for the Unicode checks in Include Programs?
If a Executable program which has got its unicoide checks active flagged and which calls an include in it,
Will the include program also have the unicode check active in it?
Or is it determined in any other way?
In general how does an include program react for unicode checks in the call program.
Thanks in advance,
Sai

Hi Rainer,
Where do i find the include is unicode checked or not?
If i go to the attributes of an include i dont find the unicode checks active displayed for it.
Is there any other way of determining it?
Or the include's unicode check is dependent on that of the calling program.
Thanks,
Sai

Question Regarding Unicode Checks

Hi Abapers,
What is Need of Transaction:UCCODE, what are the things which i need to check after giving the program name , and executing , what sholud be the out come ... negative means what will happen....
positive means what will happen.....

Activating Unicode check at global/workbench level

In order to Unicode-enable at the ABAP level, you need to check the box "Activate Unicode check" in the attributes of your ABAP program.
I would like to know whether its possible to do the same at a global level.

Hi!
Installing a R/3 Unicode System and activating your ABAP Program for Unicode Check are two different things.
First if you want a complete R/3 system with Unicode Active, then you should have a Unicode Kernel & Unicode Database and the decision whether you want it to be unicode is decided during R/3 Installation.
Secondly, Irrespective of whether you have a Unicode or Non-Unicode System, your ABAP programs can be activated for Unicode Check.The only condition is that if you have a Non-Unicode R/3 system you can Check or Uncheck the box for Unicode in the ABAP Program Attributes.Whereas if you have a Unicode System then in the ABAP program attributes it needs to be turned on for all ABAP Programs for the system to check for unicode syntaxes.
I understand your initial question was to Activate "n" ABAP Programs for Unicode all at one place instead of doing each one at the Program attributes.
I believe this is how unicode works!
Pl look at the topic
"Unicode-Enabling of ABAP Programs"

windows vista system, continuously trying to download a DRM file in Adobe Digital Editions application shows "Error check activation". I have authorized the Fire Wall and still the same.

Since Re-activation as suggested by the link above is not working for you, Can you please confirm the following:
The OperatorURL is reachable. ( you can find the operatorURL from the acsm file by opening it in notepad,etc)
And Book is still available on the book-store for purchase.
(If any of first two are not available, you might have to talk to distributor for next action item to get the book. Since you will have record of purchasing the book, (in my opinion) they should provide you the new token for downloading the book)
And please confirm this that you used the same userID for downloading that you used when you first fulfilled/downloaded the book.
(If it is the case, then you have to use the correct userID)
I hope it helps.

Can't add .ACSM files to ADE, message: "Error! Check activation"

I am using Adobe Digital Editions 4.0.3 with a NOOK Simple Touch, running on a 64-bit 2009 Windows 7 machine. Recently I have been unable to download my library ebooks to my Nook. The electronic library I am using (a derivative of Overdrive, I think) only allows the download of books in the .acsm format. However, recently, I am unable to open the books in ADE. Instead, the only option I have is Adobe Reader. When I select the 'Browse' option and choose ADE and hit 'OK', nothing happens and it doesn't show up as an option. When I try and manually add a file to my ADE library, I get an error message saying 'Error! Check Activation". The only thing I even got halfway working was when I downloaded ADE 1.7.2. I got the .acsm files into the library (still, I had to add them all manually through the ADE interface). However, my NOOK will not open these files, even when using ADE 1.7.2. These are the things I have tried:
-Downloading an e-book (in .acsm format) from the Digital Editions free book selections. Same issue
-downloading and redownloading Adobe Digital Editions 4.0.3 (and removing the other program)
-Downloading and redownloading Adobe Digital Editions 1.7.2 (and removing the other program)
-Deauthorizing ADE (Every time it just says "Unable to erase authorization. Please try again after some time.")
-Adding a book in ADE 1.7.2, getting ADE 4.0.3, transferring the book to the newer software, deleting 1.7.2, and syncing my nook with 4.0.3. Nook says it's not authorized
-Doing a factory reset of my NOOK
-Unblocking the .acsm files by going to Properties>General
-TRYING (and failing) to automatically associate .acsm files with Adobe Digital Editions. Like trying to open a downloaded file with ADE, I get no response when I browse and select i
(SIDE NOTE: my Adobe IDs all match. I know that is also not the issue).
I think the issue here is that something is preventing .acsm files from opening in ADE, and nothing in particular is wrong with my NOOK. My only guess (which is probably misguided) is that Windows can't process my request for ADE to be the program to open .acsm files because it's in the x86 program files folder and not the default Program files folder. I've never heard of that being a problem but I can't think of another reason.
If anyone has any ideas, please give them to me. I am actually typing all this for my grandmother, and she is going crazy without her library books.

On the deactivation issue- I just had a similar issue where I could not deactivate and had to manually deactivate by deleting the activation information from Windows registry. That might help you as well.
Follow the instructions below the disclaimer on this page: Error "E_AUTH_NOT_READY" | Digital Editions

"Error! Check Activation" Regular solutions not working- details in post

I am on a new laptop running Windows 8.1 and am setting up ADE on it. I get "Error! Check Activation." whenever I try and open an overdrive public library book. The computer is authorized and running a licensed set of CS5 Creative Suite software as well which has no issues. When I try to deauthorize and reauthorize, I get the error, "Unable to Erase Authorization. Please after some time." It has said this for three days. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalled ADE4.0. I have tried using ADE 3.0. Still didn't work, uninstalled, and reinstalled 4.0. Google suggested going into the registry and deleting the Adept>Authorization, however it will not allow deletion and I do not know if further tinkering it will affect my creative suite software. I have deauthorized my previous laptop, and reauthorized it, but now get bad ID errors when trying to download new books, and cannot return old ones on that machine now, which means I can't use that as a workaround in the meantime. Earlier I did install the overdrive console for Windows 8 by mistake, rather than the windows desktop version, and proceeded to download a few of the books using that. It has since been uninstalled, but might this have caused the issues?
Any ideas as to what may solve my problem?

On the deactivation issue- I just had a similar issue where I could not deactivate and had to manually deactivate by deleting the activation information from Windows registry. That might help you as well.
