Debugging - HANA Scripted Calculation view

[former_member215561]

This blog is intended for Developers / Modelers who  want to learn debugging  Hana views and doesn't have prior experience in working with Hana studio or any eclipse based IDE. Myself I found it very difficult to understand debugging with studio as I was having only experience of debugging ABAP programs, which was pretty much  straight forward for me with /h ( F5, F6 F7 :smile: ).

• Once you have logged on to your Hana system, in the systems view find the name of your scripted view under the schema SYS_BIC under procedures. For all scripted views, system will generate a .procedure file under SYS_BIC, your script will be listed along with the package path here. Locate and open the procedure.

         

• Go to Run -> Debug Configuration -> HANA Stored procedure -> New configuration and select catalog schemas and browse for your Procedure / Scripted View under SYS_BIC

• Name your configuration and click on apply
• Go to Debug perspective

• Set break points by double clicking on the left side of margin as shown below.
• Go to Run->Debug Configurations-> select the configuration created and press Debug

Variable and Breakpoints will be visible on the top right window, where you can right click and get a data preview. Press F8 to continue to next break point,also if you want to debug the same view once again, right click on the configuration and Relaunch it.
