runtime error

[Former Member]

Hello All,

DATA: regex TYPE REF TO cl_abap_regex,
      moff TYPE i,
      mlen TYPE i,
      text  TYPE        string.


CREATE OBJECT regex
  EXPORTING
    pattern      = 'f'
    simple_regex = 'X'.

cause an runtime error if no input field is populated.

Some times it is possible to keep the fields empty.

But anyway the programm should not dump.

How can I prevent that ?

Hi!

Try out CATCH command, it might help.

You are right this shouldn't dump, what does the dump say?

For the currect statement, only character-type fields and objects of the

type "CL_ABAP_REGEX" are allowed as search pattern. However, in this

particular cas, an object of the type "㽰" was transferred.

This error could not be detected during the syntax check, because the

affected argument is typed with ANY.

Can you post more details of the dump, e.g exactly at what statement it dumped and what the values of the involved variables are?

Thanks,

Michael
