Catching a runtime error

[Former Member]

Hi,

A runtime error for overflow (type p) occurs with the following details:

Runtime Errors COMPUTE_BCD_OVERFLOW

Exception CX_SY_ARITHMETIC_OVERFLOW

Date and Time 06/12/2007 11:33:13

Instead of displaying the dump screen, i'd like to catch the runtime error and display a message instead. The following is the code that causes the error (onhand is too large):

REQRMENT = FORECAST - ONHAND - OPENQTY.

Please help,

Points will be rewarded and all help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

John

Wrap it with a CATCH.

catch system-exceptions compute_bcd_overflow = 1.
 REQRMENT = FORECAST - ONHAND - OPENQTY.
endcatch.

if sy-subrc  = 1.
* Handle the exception
Endif.

According to help, these are the catchable exceptions for a form call:

Catchable Exceptions

CX_SY_PROGRAM_NOT_FOUND

Cause: The specified program was not found.

Runtime Error: LOAD_PROGRAM_NOT_FOUND

Cause: The specified program cannot exist because the program name is longer than 40 characters.

Runtime Error: PERFORM_PROGRAM_NAME_TOO_LONG

CX_SY_DYN_CALL_ILLEGAL_FORM

Cause: The specified subroutine was not found.

Runtime Error: PERFORM_NOT_FOUND

Cause: The specified index was too small.

Runtime Error: PERFORM_INDEX_0

Cause: The specified index was negative.

Runtime Error: PERFORM_INDEX_NEGATIVE

Cause: The specified index was too large.

Runtime Error: PERFORM_INDEX_TOO_LARGE

CX_SY_DYN_CALL_PARAM_MISSING

Cause: The called FORM expects more parameters than were specified.

Runtime Error: PERFORM_PARAMETER_MISSING

CX_SY_DYN_CALL_PARAM_NOT_FOUND

Cause: More parameters were specified than expected by FORM.

Runtime Error: PERFORM_TOO_MANY_PARAMETERS

CX_SY_DYN_CALL_ILLEGAL_TYPE

Cause: In the parameter transfer using the addition STRUCTURE, the addressing offsets/> do not match in the current and target structures.

Runtime Error: PERFORM_BASE_WRONG_ALIGNMENT

Cause: The deep components contained in the current and target structures cannot be passed to each other. This error can only occur in parameter transfer using STRUCTURE.

Runtime Error: PERFORM_CAST_DEEP_MISMATCH

Cause: During the transfer of a generically defined type to the form, a type conflict occurred.

Runtime Error: PERFORM_CONFLICT_GENERIC_TYPE

Cause: The table type of the current parameter does not match the table type of the parameter defined in the form.

Runtime Error: PERFORM_CONFLICT_TAB_TYPE

Cause: The type of current parameter does not match the type of parameter defined in the form.

Runtime Error: PERFORM_CONFLICT_TYPE

Cause: The current parameter occupies less storage space than the target parameter defined in the form. This error occurs only with parameter specification using STRUCTURE.

Runtime Error: PERFORM_PARAMETER_TOO_SHORT

Cause: During parameter transfer with the addition STRUCTURE, the fragment views of the current and target parameters do not match. This error only occurs in Unicode programs in

Runtime Error: PERFORM_CONFLICT_UC_STRUCT

Cause:When the form is called, an internal table is expected as current parameter.

Runtime Error: PERFORM_TABLE_REQUIRED

Cause: A hash table was passed to a parameter defined using TABLES.

Runtime Error: PERFORM_STD_TAB_REQUIRED
