Read File from Local path - Not_Supported_by_gui exception

[former_member38295]

To read content of the file Local system path ,I have used GUI_UPLOAD FM.

Step 1:

Normal Input field will be URL (EX:  D:\Invattach.pdf ) on click of Submit Button GUI_UPLOAD FM will get triggered.

Step 2: Exception:

NOT_SUPPORTED_BY_GUI.

As GUI_UPLOAD Cannot be triggered from web dynpro application.

I know we can upload the file using Upload UI Container, But my requirement is that Input will be File Path(like D:\Invattach.pdf which will be in C or D drive) and ABAP Program need to read the file.

Input file can be of any type.

Please Help me here

is there any FM or method that can be called from webdynpro application other than GUI_UPLOAD to read file from local path?

Hi,

You can achieve this by FILEUPLOAD UI Element in webdynpro.
