ABAP debugging, catch exception

former_member216578 — Sun, 15 Feb 2015 17:19:12 GMT

Hello, experts!

Is there any way for catching exception from "insert <tabname> from table itab" during debugging, if there's no any exception handling in code? I want to know what is the error text to analyze it in more detail. I can't modify a program, because it has been generated automatically (it is a data loading program for BW extractor), so I need any case to insert error handling or get the error message while debug before program exit.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Andrew.

hi andrew,

There is a catchable exception which you can try

TRY.

insert <tabname> from table itab

CATCH CX_SY_ITAB_DUPLICATE_KEY.

ENDTRY.

There are also non-catchable exceptions which you can refer at

ABAP Keyword Documentation

I didn't mention that insert updates a database table, not internal table, and also it has addition: INSERT <DB table> FROM TABLE itab ACCEPTING DUPLICATE KEYS.

Hi, Abdul.

Thanks for your reply, but I cannot modify the code, it was generated "on the fly", as I can see, and provided by SAP's functionality.

hi andrew,

in case if any rows are not inserted then sy-subrc has value 4.

also if sy-dbcnt has less number of records than total then you can come to know that some records are missed.

but I think with this command it is not possible to rollback in case of any error
