How to log information in ABAP program?

Former Member — Wed, 15 Apr 2009 16:26:48 GMT

I used to work with other logging frameworks like log4j in Java. Is there any feature in ABAP which I can use to log information and view it later? Thanks!

Hello Anthony

The links provided by the previous postings give you in-depth details about application logging.

However, there is simpler way to do the logging by using the ultimate message handler IF_RECA_MESSAGE_LIST.

This interface provides you with all the required methods yet hides almost all of the complexity from its user.

For a sample report you may have a look at my Wiki posting
