Variable Procedure Name

[Former Member]

Is there a way to call a procedure name based on a variable. I.e.

  procname = 'proc1'.
    perform procname.

form proc1.
*  do something.
endform.

I want to do this to avoid a bunch of case statements.

Hi,

Please try this.

v_procname = 'proc1'.

perform procname using v_procname.

form procname using p_procname.

• do something.

endform.

Thanks for the response. I don't think that's what I need.

Given

loop at itab into l_s_xx
 case l_s_xx-id.
   when 'abc' .
     perform abc.
   when 'def'.
     perform def.
...
...
  endcase.

I

want to just call a procedure that has the same name as the value of the field being evaluated without having to call it specifically.

Thanks for any help.

Hi Jerry,

Its possible to call a FORM by passing the name of the FORM to a variable. Here is the code:-

<b>DATA: lv_frm(30) TYPE c.

lv_frm = 'TEST_PERFORM'.

PERFORM (lv_frm) in program (sy-repid).

&----

---

*& Form test_perform

&----

---

• text

----

---

FORM test_perform.

WRITE 'DONE'.

ENDFORM. "test_perform</b>

NOTE: I have tested the code and it works. Also please reward points if you are satisfied with the solution :).

Thanks and regards,

In the example i gave above, you can use the variable LV_FRM to carry different FORMNAMES.

Thanks and regards,

Ravi :).
