How to access a class instance variable from ABAP Callstack.

[Former Member]

Hi All,

I need to access a varable in one of the method in ABAP stack

Event Type_____Event____________________________Program

METHOD______IF_EX_ME_GUI_PO_CUST~EXECUTE__ZCL_IM_PTP_PO_CUSTM_FLDS======CP --> I am here

METHOD______IF_EX_ME_GUI_PO_CUST~EXECUTE__CL_EX_ME_GUI_PO_CUST==========CP

METHOD______EXECUTE________________________SAPLMEGUI

METHOD______EXECUTE________________________CL_COMPOSITE_SCREEN_VIEW_MM===CP --> need to access here

I tried to access using the below code

DATA: LV type string.
FIELD-SYMBOLS: <FS> TYPE ANY.

LV = '(CL_COMPOSITE_SCREEN_VIEW_MM===CP)WA-VIEW'.
ASSIGN (LV) TO <FS>.

But the field symbol is unassigned. Is there any other way to access the variable.

Regards,

Vipin

Hello,

I don't think you'll be able to access the class directly! This will impact the encapsulation design of OOPs, you'll be able to access the PRIVATE & PROTECTED attributes of that class!

You should try to access the Object Reference variable defined in the program. Suppose you've an obj. ref. variable defined like this:

DATA: OBJ_REF TYPE REF TO CL_SOMECLASS.

You can try to access the variable OBJ_REF from the call stack:

FIELD-SYMBOLS: <OBJ> TYPE OBJECT.
ASSIGN ('OBJ_REF') TO <OBJ>.

Hope i'm clear.

BR,
