Hi Anuj,

You cannot add/modify your code lines at the time of debugging, but, the following points can be helpful:

1. In the New Debugger, you have an option of opening your Source code. You can use this to add/change code lines. But, this will be effective only when you activate your code and start a new de-bugging session.

2. While de-bugging you can change the value of the variable under consideration and verify the required output.

Dear Pranav,

If i activate my program from debuger then my org. code will also change?

Hi Anuj,

First, even I would like to stress the point mentioned above by Suhas. No matter how critical the issue is & even if you have these rights in Production, do NOT change the values in Production system. NOT RECOMMENDED AT ALL.

About your question of activating from the debugger:

The De-bugger only opens the source code in a New Window. Till you execute the existing code or activate it from the ABAP EDITOR, your code remains the same. As you are in Production you will have to trnasport the changes after activating the code with the changes.

Pranav.

HI Anuj,

You cannot the change the code while debugging, BUt do have an option for changing the values for the available code.

In PROD? No way!! Don't think even the ignorant of managers will provide you the authority modify runtime values while debugging in PROD

Anyway back to your question, i think some functionality has been incorporated in the latest debugger(NW7.0 EhP2). I'll check the blog & get back to you.

Hello Suhas,

If you have come across this functionality with even a new debugger, can you please update it here.

Thank you.
