List of files present in a folder on application server ?

[Former Member]

Hi,

How to get all file names present inside a folder which is on application server ? (not on my workstation !)

Like CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES~DIRECTORY_LIST_FILES, but for a SAP server.

Thanks

Mickael

Hi Michael, you could use that class/method, but you just provide the full path with host name and it must be open on your network, but instead try this example program.

report zrich_0001 .

data: begin of itab occurs 0,
      rec(1000) type c,
      end of itab.
data: wa(1000) type c.

data: p_file type localfile.
data: ifile type table of  salfldir with header line.

parameters: p_path type salfile-longname
                    default '/usr/sap/TST/DVEBMGS01/data/'.


call function 'RZL_READ_DIR_LOCAL'
     exporting
          name           = p_path
     tables
          file_tbl       = ifile
     exceptions
          argument_error = 1
          not_found      = 2
          others         = 3.

loop at ifile.
  format hotspot on.
  write:/ ifile-name.
  hide ifile-name.
  format hotspot off.
endloop.


at line-selection.

  concatenate p_path ifile-name into p_file.

  clear itab.  refresh itab.
  open dataset p_file for input in text mode.
  if sy-subrc = 0.
    do.
      read dataset p_file into wa.
      if sy-subrc <> 0.
        exit.
      endif.
      itab-rec = wa.
      append itab.
    enddo.
  endif.
  close dataset p_file.

  loop at itab.
    write:/ itab.
  endloop.

Thanks it works fine.

Note: for unicode (ECC 6.0), we have to add "ENCODING DEFAULT" with "open dataset ".

Else I found also FM " TMP_GUI_DIRECTORY_LIST_FILES "
