ABAP Exceptions

Knowing the types of exception handling in ABAP could be helpful in your application.


I learned so far that there are two types of handling exceptions in ABAP. It is through a non-class based and a class based exception classes:


SUMMARY: Untick the class exception in the exception parameter of a method to create a non-class based.


Creating a class based should start your class name in CX_*. Watch out for my next blog.


NOTE:  this is the proper syntax for the attribute '&' as shown in the pic below:

Just an addition, you may want also to catch any generic SAP error by using the syntax below:

data OREF type ref to CX_ROOT.

data TEXT type STRING.

try.

    [statement]

catch CX_ROOT into OREF.
      TEXT = OREF->GET_TEXT( ). 

endtry.

To create a non class-based exception in a funtion
