Where-used list for ABAP type STRING

[Former Member]

In SAP GUI "Where-used list (CtrlShiftF3)" for ABAP type STRING raises the following error "STRING is a predefined data type in ABAP/4". How else could I find how often String type is used in SAP System?

hi,

use this program <b>RPR_ABAP_SOURCE_SCAN</b>

to scan.

Try program RSRSCAN1.

2 points for RPR_ABAP_SOURCE_SCAN, thanks!

I'd like to give 10 points for the following query or its result: "Find all exported RFC function modules that has STRING among their parameter types".

Run program RPR_ABAP_SOURCE_SCAN.

In selection screen enter the Program Type 'F' (Function Group)

And desired Development class.

'STRING' as parameter for 'Find String'.

Radio button ABAP Programs and execute.

You need to filter/ check this result again to get the RFC / function names.

GO TO SE11

GIVE TABLE NAME TFDIR,

GIVE VALUES FOR FIELDS FOR SELECTION AS FOLLOWS

FUNCNAME STRING

FMODE R

U WILL FIND ALL RFC USING STRINGS

2 points for the useful transaction (SE11), thanks.

But this will find all remotely enabled functions having "STRING" as part of their name, not parameter's type.

hi

If u r not remembering the name of program even though u can find program name

For that purpose u should no either variable name or string which used in the program.

1. Program Name : RPR_ABAP_SOURCE_SCAN

OR

2. Transaction Code : ewk1

Hi Sam,

You can use program RPR_ABAP_SOURCE_SCAN.

This program has a field on the selection screen where you can provide the name of the program. However, this field is not mandatory. If you want, you can enter an * here to scan all programs <i>(THIS IS HOWEVER NOT RECOMMENDED SINCE THE EXECUTION TIME WILL BE EXTREMELY HIGH AND YOUR PROGRAM WILL TIME-OUT, ELSE SET IT AS A BACKGROUND TASK.)</i> In case, you just want to check all custom programs, you can specify Y* or Z* in this field.

Hope this helps.

Regards,

Madhur

NB: Please do award points if found helpful.

Thanks and 2 points to everybody for the proposed source code scanners (RPR_ABAP_SOURCE_SCAN, RSRSCAN1, ewk1, etc.) but I failed with them. Either timeout or too much efforts to review results for even small amount of functions.

Let's review our bonuses:

- 10 points for the following query "Find ALL exported RFC function modules that has ABAP TYPE STRING among their parameter types".

- 6 points for the result of this query that was performed on any SAP System without the query itself.

Example functions are STFC_STRING, STFC_DEEP_STRUCTURE, STFC_DEEP_TABLE.

i am not sure whether you would find a standard tool for this. you may have to write some code.

check out this FM FUNCTION_IMPORT_INTERFACE

this takes the function name as parameter and returns its import/export/tables parameters along with their types.

you could copy this to a custom namespace, and modify ito accept multiple fnction names or with wild card characters and do the search.

chk this code which is used to find programs,strings ... in SAP SCRIPTS forms , may be it may give u some idea
