Hi Kokwei,

1. I u are talking about the clock in the form of

2:10 PM

Yes

we can do it using TIMER Concept

Using Cl_GUI_TIMER Class.

2. If u want sample code, i can provide.

3. If u are talking about graphical clock,

then i have not tried that.

Regards,

Amit M.

Hi again,

CLOCK ON SCREEN. (Thru write statement)

(This sample code will give an insight

to many abapers who are still wondering

about the concept of TIMER IN ABAP

as compared to other programming languages)

(Timer in ABAP was also a mystery to me

some time back ago)

The Code : (Just Copy Paste)

REPORT abc NO STANDARD PAGE HEADING.

DATA : wa(72) TYPE c.

*----

CLASS my DEFINITION.

PUBLIC SECTION.

METHODS : run_handler FOR EVENT finished OF cl_gui_timer.

ENDCLASS. "my DEFINITION

DATA timer TYPE REF TO cl_gui_timer.

DATA myh TYPE REF TO my.

----

CLASS my IMPLEMENTATION

----

CLASS my IMPLEMENTATION.

METHOD run_handler.

CALL METHOD timer->run.

PERFORM mylist.

ENDMETHOD. "run_handler

ENDCLASS. "my IMPLEMENTATION

*----

Init

INITIALIZATION.

CREATE OBJECT timer.

CREATE OBJECT myh.

SET HANDLER myh->run_handler FOR ALL INSTANCES.

PARAMETERS : a TYPE c.

*----

End of selection

START-OF-SELECTION.

WRITE sy-uzeit TO wa.

WRITE wa.

timer->interval = '0.5'.

CALL METHOD timer->run.

*----

FORM mylist.

WRITE sy-uzeit TO wa.

MODIFY LINE 1 LINE VALUE FROM wa.

ENDFORM. "MYLIST

Hope the above helps.

Regards,

Amit M.

CALL METHOD timer->run.

Hi All,

I went through the discussion but i think the suggestions and informations are not upto the expectation.

Now you may try for this code.

Here I am NOT USING ANY CLASS OBJECTS .

N.B. Create a PF status GAME with a button TIMER having a dynamic text.

Create a function module like 'zmart_timer' which

contains nothing as source code then use this code.

************************************

REPORT ZMART_REALTIMER_NEW .

data: v_flag,

v_times TYPE I,

TIMER(12) .

INITIALIZATION.

v_times = 1.

START-OF-SELECTION.

PERFORM start_timer.

AT USER-COMMAND.

IF SY-UCOMM = 'PLAY'.

v_times = 1.

CLEAR V_FLAG.

ENDIF.

perform sub_write.

PERFORM status_call.

FORM START_REFRESH USING TASKNAME.

SET USER-COMMAND '123'.

ENDFORM.

form sub_write.

SY-LSIND = 0.

CONCATENATE SY-UZEIT0(2) ':' SY-UZEIT2(2) ':' SY-UZEIT+4(2) INTO TIMER.

endform.

form start_timer .

SET PF-STATUS 'GAME'.

CALL FUNCTION 'ZMART_TIMER'

starting new task '*'

performing start_refresh on end of task.

WRITE:/21 'Created by Smart Varghese'.

endform. " start_timer

form status_call .

IF SY-UCOMM = 'BACK'.

LEAVE PROGRAM.

ENDIF.

IF V_FLAG = SPACE.

wait up to '.1' SECONDS.

CALL FUNCTION 'ZMART_TIMER'

starting new task '*'

performing start_refresh on end of task.

ENDIF.

endform. " status_call
