Program call via SUBMIT

mabue — Fri, 09 Dec 2022 12:02:17 GMT

Is it possible to determine in a program whether this program was called from another program via SUBMIT?

The function module "SYSTEM_CALLSTACK" or the class "CL_ABAP_GET_CALL_STACK" are unfortunately not usable for this.

I am grateful for any hint.

Best wishes

Marco

you could create a SingleTon class in the calling program. But this will not work if you are searching for solution without update calling programs

where the SingleTon class is the heavier version of the singleton? 😉

(ok, it's friday...)

I could do a DP_Single_Ton but matthew.billingham certainly lurk somewhere against Hungarian notation ...

No (as far as I know).

You need to change the calling program to pass the information (either via EXPORT ... TO MEMORY ID ... or via new parameter).

Sandra ? you prefer the EXPORT ... IMPORT instead of the SinGlEtOn design pattern ??

Sandra, that's a good idea with EXPORT-IMPORT. Why didn't I think of that? 😉

Frederic, if I'm honest, I don't understand how you mean that with the singleton class.

frdric.girod I don't see how singleton pattern can overcome the Internal Session barrier. The singleton will exist only in Internal Session "1", it won't exist in Internal Session "2".
