OOps question

In class 'CL_CI_TEST_S4H_SEARCH_DB_OPS' the method 'REPORT_FINDING' is private. I am unable to call this method into my report. How should I call this private method in my program?

Hello,

It is not possible to call a private method directly.

Check if this private method is being used by some public method. If yes u can call the public method from your ABAP code.

(Private methods can only be called from another method in the same class. As this class is delivered by SAP you can do nothing with this class if the private method is not called inside any public method.)

Hope it was useful 🙂

Regards.

basically, Private methods can not be called from outside the class,thats why they are private.

Yes, you cannot call Private methods.

Inside Method "INFORM" Method "REPORT_FINDING" is getting checked, Try calling this method.

check report_finding( ls_finding_infos ) = abap_true.

This is an implementation class of a code inspector check. You cannot use these classes stand-alone. Why do you want to do that?
