I am new to SAP, and am encountering an issue I am not sure how to resolve.
I am setting a property to '' (empty), but it is not being displayed as such.
There is existing logic that sets specific fields to 'Display Only' when a checkbox is checked. I am working to extend this to clear any data that is within those fields. Due to how the original logic was implemented, this change is being handled in the "Get_..." method (may be moved to an event handler once I get it working).
Currently, the logic sets the property to be empty (I have confirmed this with debug); however, the webpage keeps the original value. A shortened outline of the code is below (all try catches, etc. removed to keep it short and simple):
DATA: current TYPE REF TO if_bol_bo_property_access.
DATA: dref TYPE REF TO data.
current = collection_wrapper->get_current( ).
dref = current->get_property( 'FIRSTNAME' ).
* If condition
DATA: copy TYPE REF TO data.
FIELD-SYMBOLS:
<nval> TYPE ANY,
<oval> TYPE ANY.
ASSIGN dref->* TO <oval>.
CREATE DATA copy LIKE <oval>.
CLEAR value.
TRY.
CALL METHOD if_bsp_model_util~convert_from_string
EXPORTING
data_ref = copy
value = value
attribute_path = attribute_path.
CATCH cx_sy_conversion_error.
RAISE EXCEPTION TYPE cx_bsp_conv_failed
EXPORTING
name = 'FIRSTNAME'.
ENDTRY.
current->set_property_as_string(
iv_attr_name = 'FIRSTNAME'
iv_value = value ).
value = current->get_property_text( 'FIRSTNAME' ). "Check empty ''
Most of this was pulled from the 'Set_...' method. Any help would be appreciated.
