[Former Member]

Hi,

We are Upgrading Ecc4.7 to Ecc6.

We found that TABLE_COMPRESS and

SAPWL_STATREC_READ_FILE are Obsolete.

Please suggest the Replacement for these Function Modules

have a look at class

CL_ABAP_GZIP

*********************************

what you could do is using call transformation transform your itab to XML form and then use CL_ABAP_GZIP to zip it.

to read it back, unzip using CL_ABAP_GZIP and then again use call transformation and XSLT program to convert it to your itab format.

Sandhya,

As Vasu suggested you can use class <b>cl_abap_gzip</b>

try.
call method cl_abap_gzip=>compress_text
  exporting
    text_in                     = xsccpvapitem
  importing
    gzip_out                   = it_attach2
    gzip_out_len             = 255.
    .
endtry.

Regards

Aneesh.

Hi Sandhya,

don't care too much for obsolete: SAP uses tons of obsolete functions in so many standard applications.

There are several functions to read statistics records:

SAPWL_STATREC_DIRECT_READ is close to what you're currently using.

SAPWL_STATREC_READ_REMOTE is similar but remote-enabled.

Or you can use one of the newer NetWeaver functions.

Use SE37 and look for SAPWL_* or SWNC_*.
