Documentation

Definition

Activate this option if it is necessary for the BSP element to manipulate its content.

Use

After this option is activated, the interface attribute M_OUT contains a BodyWriter that manages the content of the BSP element. You can use the BodyWriter methods to manipulate the content.

Important: You must redefine the interface method DO_AT_END, in which the content of the BodyWriter is explicitly transferred to the BodyWriter of a surrounding BSP element (see the last two rows in the example). If this is not done, the content of the element is discarded.

Dependencies

Example

The BSP element is to convert its whole content to upper case:

METHOD IF_BSP_ELEMENT~DO_AT_END. 
  DATA: l_content TYPE STRING. 

  l_content = m_out->get_content( ). 
  TRANSLATE l_content TO UPPER CASE. 
  m_out->clear( ). 
  m_out->print_string( l_content ). 
  m_out->flush_to_previous_writer( ). 
ENDMETHOD.
