Hi, the table TFDIR hold's the name of the function pool. You can use the function pool name to fetch the code from the table REPOSRC.

You don't need to know, I wil explain.

Hiow-to :

- Read table TFDIR to get main program and include number of the module

- From program and include number using FM FUNCTION_INCLUDE_CONCATENATE you get the include name

- Use statement READ REPORT to get the source code

Raymond

Hi vijay,

You can use table TFDIR to fetch the program name and include name for function module.

There is one more way to fetch,

You can use TADIR table to fetch the program name and program type (Field name SUBC)

and make inner join with REPOSRC table to get the program id , object, dev class.

Here you can find the sample program, to downlod all the function module code to PC.

Hi Guys,

Thanks for your response.

I am able to download the code of the Function Module
by following the procedure you guys posted. I want to know the Database table name where the Function module code resides, My aim here is to update a Function Modules code using a program without going to se37 tcode.

Thanks,

Hi Faheem,

I guess REPOSRC has a field(DATA) which has the source code in a Compressed form.

You can try to decompress it using DECOMPRESS_TEXT of CL_ABAP_GZIP but I am not sure how much this will work. The data field could also be encrypted.

You can work with the READ REPORT, DELETE REPORT and INSERT REPORT in the same order and modify your source code.

Thanks,

Shambu

No need to use DELETE REPORT as INSERT REPORT will ovewrite existing code (without warning )

No complicated code required, use the utility class CL_RECA_RS_SERVICES, method GET_SOURCE. This class will work for object types : Program, Class, interface & Function group.

Regards, Vinod

P.S: Will work only for extraction of source code and not for updating.
