Hi Nitesh

ABAP Mapping is used whenever you explicitly need to build your output XML structure . Its entirely depends on your call which approach you want to adopt i.e. JAVA mapping or ABAP mapping as in both the cases you need to explicitly build the output structure . ABAP Mapping however creates a DOM tree in the memory . Therefore it can be a performance issue whenever your source structure is complex . In case you need an idea of how to go about ABAP mapping here is a link which you can refer

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/47/b5413acdb62f70e10000000a114084/frameset.htm

Also ABAP mappings have the handicap that they are separated from usual development in Repository. Additional there is more (ABAP, DOM) experience required as for example for XSLT or graphical mapping (my point of view). So they are used for special reasons like access to ABAP stack (transparent tables!).

Refer to following SDN Demo which explains the need and how to do the ABAP mapping.

hi ,

Hi,

the same as java mapping:

when you cannot do it with graphical or xslt mapping

like when you have structured input (not XML) to mapping for example

of you need to map to non XML structure

in those two use java mapping or abap mapping

(which one you know better)
