Diagnosis
The type contains recursions. This means that a type references itself (possibly indirectly).
Example:
A packing unit is described by its length, width, height, and content. The content can also consist of packing units.
<complexType name="PackingUnit">
<sequence>
<element name="length" type="int"/>
<element name="width" type="int"/>
<element name="height" type="int"/>
<element name="content" type="PackingUnit"
maxOccurs="unbounded"/>
</sequence>
</complexType>
In ABAP, recursively defined structures are not possible.
Currently, the only solution is to replace a recursive reference by a reference to the data element XSDANY, so that the structure looks like this:
Dictionary structure PACKING_UNIT
Field LENGTH TYPE INT4
Field WIDTH TYPE INT4
Field HEIGHT TYPE INT4
Field CONTENT TYPE PACKING_UNIT_CONTENT_TAB
Dictionary table type PACKING_UNIT_CONTENT_TAB
Line type XSDANY (not TYPE PACKING_UNIT)
The programmer must fill this XSDANY field correctly. For more information see Handling raw XML data.
System Response
The system displays a warning for each type which is part of a recursion. The type cannot be activated if the DDIC type to be generated also contains a recursion.
Procedure
To be able to activate the proxy you have to "break" the recursion by mapping at least on chain of each recursion to XSDANY. This is done by setting the flag Untyped mapping in the detail vie of the corrosponding data type.
