Syntax Error in Test - Class Method

Former Member — Fri, 17 Aug 2007 12:47:00 GMT

Hello all,

I've created a Class, and when I try to test one of the methods (from within SE24), I'm getting the following error: "Syntax error in test. Display generated test environment?" (When I say Yes, I'm taken to %_JJ_TESTFRAME_CLASS program)

The strange thing is that the code passed the sytax check, and has been activated. Additionally, there's no error logged in ST22.

Any ideas as to what might cause this?

Thanks in advance,

Lisa

Hi,

Have you define any private types in your class?. I think you cannot use your own private types with public class attributes. if yes you need to define a table type having line structure.

Hi,

Define a table type in Data Dicionary having line structure for

type_statab

I know this not right , but you can try.

a@s,

Thanks so much for the suggestion! It worked. I had already created the type as you mentioned, but just hadn't refered to it when defining the table. I did and it fixed it!! Now it seems to be working properly

I had the same error and discovered that the cause was a line in my class code that was too long. I declared some local types, and some of the parameters in my methods were defined of that type, so that the whole line of code looked something like this:

CLASS-METHODS do_something 
IMPORTING iv_parameter_name TYPE zcl_my_long_class_name=>ts_my_structure_type-field_in_structure.

This line of code was too long. I've changed the parameter's type to a dictionary type, made sure that there were no other long lines of code in the class, tried to re-generate the test class environment, and it worked.
