GUI_DOWNLOAD Debug

Former Member — Thu, 30 Oct 2014 07:55:51 GMT

Hi All,

I am using GUI_DOWNLOAD Function module in my program to download data to text file and I want to know how the FM save the text file as format 'ANSI' . So I want to debug and see what is happening but I am unable to get in to GUI_DOWNLOAD FM in debugging.When I hit F5 at the FM I am seeing a method constructor and not able to go to the real code part of FM and when I hit F7 I am out of the GUI_DOWNLOAD. Please let me know if someone know how to debug FM GUI_DOWNLOAD or let me know what is that I am doing wrong.

Thanks,

Eileen

Hi,

some codes are specified as "system", so you could only debug it using System debug -> /hs not /h

second, to debug pop-up window, the most simple way, is to create a SAP short cut in your desktop. Set the command /h (or /hs) and drag/drop in the SAP pop-up ..

regards

Fred

Hi Fred,

Thank you for you replay.

Could you tell me how to create a SAP short cut?

For debug using shortcut : How to Debug a Popup Screen

But don’t expect the Abap debugger to continue deep into C code of Kernel functions or SAP GUI application
