checking the syntax of a program

Former Member — Mon, 15 Nov 2010 07:29:09 GMT

Hi,

I have a problem , in my program (ABAP editor) i want to check the syntax line by line and then wants to show all the errors together .

like now we go to abap editor n press check button it displays only one error at a time , my requirement is to check each word and statements line by line and then display all the errors on a single screen.

Is there any function module, class or method to solve my problem.

Please provide the solution ?

Have you tried the option "display all syntax errors" in the ABAP editor, Utilities -> Settings -> Tab "ABAP Editor"?

Hi all,

thanx for giving replies but the solutions you have provided are for automatic syntax check, i do not want automatic my requirement is to code a program where you give any program and line by line it will check all the errors not warnings and then display . It is a part of project on the basis of this logic only i can move ahead.

.Please provide some solution .

Hi,

have a look at Function Module 'EXTENDED_PROGRAM_CHECK'... this might help you (it's called within TA SLIN)

If you look through the list of ABAP commands, you'll find there is one called "SYNTAX-CHECK". Write your program using this command.

Which bit didn't you understand?

Use addition PROGRAM to specify in prog the name of an existing ABAP program to use its program attributes for the syntax check
