ABAP: how to know one parameter were read when debugging

[Former Member]

Dear ABAPers,

When debugging, we can create watchpoint to determine when that parameter has been changed value. I'd like to know whether is there a way to know when one parameter are read.

For example, to know where vbak-vbeln is read, can the debugger break at the statement like:

xvbeln = vbak-vbeln.

Hi Nattapong,

In the example you gave, vbak-vbeln is not being read but used to assign a value to xbeln. So, if you want to know where vbak-vbeln is being read (in other words, where it is being assigned a value for the first time), you simply need to create a watchpoint on vbak-vbeln.

Thanks for your reply, but it's not my requirement. I know that using watchpoint would detect when the variable is assigned. My requrement is that when is it refrered or used.

To more clarification, my requirement, I want to ensure that if I change the SO value at the user-exit; I must not effect the standard codes.

<User-exit>      => MY IMPLEMENTATION HERE!!!

......

<Standard code>

.......

IF vbak-vbeln is initial.

.....

[I want to skip the statements of getting standard SO number]

......

ENDIF.

Hi,

For this you have to do a global find of the vairable.
