GenerateAbapProgramToFile

GenerateAbapProgramToFile

Generates the ABAP program for a mapping with SAP table as the source and saves the program as a file. The GenerateAbapProgramToFile command generates the ABAP program for a mapping in the PowerCenter repository. The generated program is saved as a file. You can use the GenerateAbapProgramToFile command for mappings that use SAP tables as the source.
The naming convention for the file is
mappingname_<version>_<program_mode>.ab4
. You must enclose the path and the file name in double quotes. After you generate the ABAP program and save it to a file, use the InstallAbapProgram command to install it on an SAP system.
The GenerateAbapProgramToFile command uses the following syntax:
generateabapprogramtofile -s <folder_name> -m <mapping_name> [-v <version_number>] [-l <log_filename>] -u <user_name> -x <password> -c <connect_string> -t <client> [-y <language>] -p <program_mode (file, stream)> -f <output_file_location> {-e (enable override) -o <override_name> } [-a (authority check)] [-n (use namespace)]
