Watchpoint for a variable inside a Standard Program

former_member209217 — Wed, 10 Apr 2013 12:22:40 GMT

Hi Experts,

We are trying to Debug a standard program . We are tracing out one structure variable and trying to create a watch point on that.

But as you know while creating the watch point it says that variable is not found in the current program.The Variable is being used in other standard programs which are being called from the main program. Is there a way to create the Watch point?

Best Regards,

Lakshman

Hi Lakshman,

When you create Watchpoint, you need specify variable name and program name as well. If your variable is in another program, just change program which is by default current, then you should be able to create Watchpoint.

Additional hint, use [] in case of internal tables, like lt_my_data[].

Adam

Hello Lakshman,

Please go through this How to create watch point during debugging.

And also go through News in ABAP Debugger Breakpoints and Watchpoints , Statement Debugging.

Thanks,
