Hi Experts,

As am working with user-exits for VA01, VL01N etc., When I want to debug these VA01, VL01N tx, as we know, there is huge SAP code, so ,i guess, in this regard, <i><b>CALL STACK, OVERVIEW, Menu--->debugging updation</b></i> etc, helps to trace out our requirement!! so, pls, clarify that, in debugging mode,

1) How Can I use CALL STACK or Wht is the role of it?

2) How Can I use OVERVIEW or Wht is the role of it?

3) How Can I use mENU-->Debugging Updation or Wht is the role of it?

Thanq.

Hi Srikhar,

Please refer to the below chart for the uses and the roles of all the modes in debugging.

Display Modes Available Using Pushbuttons

Fields

The scrollable field display contains the contents of up to eight fields. The contents of the three most important system fields are always displayed. This is the default display mode in the Debugger. See also:

Processing Fields

Table

Displays the contents of an internal table. This mode allows you to display and edit the entries in an internal table. also:

Processing Internal Tables

Breakpoints

A scrollable display containing up to 30 breakpoints. Next to each breakpoint is a counter. You can also delete breakpoints in this display. See also:

Managing Dynamic Breakpoints

Watchpoints

You can set a watchpoint for a field so that the program is interrupted whenever the value of that field changes. This display mode contains a list of watchpoints, the fields and programs to which they are assigned, the current values of the fields, and the conditions upon which the watchpoint is activated. See also:

Setting Watchpoints

Calls

This mode displays the current sequence of events, and the sequence of calls up to the current breakpoint. The last active call is displayed at the top of the list; previous calls are listed in reverse chronological order. When an event (for example, START-OF-SELECTION) concludes, it is deleted from the display.

Overview

This mode displays the structure of the program. It lists its events, subroutines, and modules, and shows which sections belong to which events. It also displays the section currently being processed.

Settings

This mode displays the current Debugger settings. You can change the settings by selecting or deselecting various options. For further information, refer to:

Settings and Warnings

In case you have any further clarifications,do let me know.

Regards,

Puneet Jhari.
