Doubt report RPR_ABAP_SOURCE_SCAN

[ronaldo_aparecido]

Good morning Gurus.

The functional wants that I change a message text.

But this message occurs within a standard function  probably placed by exit or enhacement ...etc I need know where to change the message.

To search the message I use the RPR_ABAP_SOURCE_SCAN.

In field 'String searched for' i put the current message `In saturday bla bla bla'

in field Program Name I put *

After 4 hours he DON ' T FIND ANYTHING.

1-i SEARCH CORRECTLY FOR THE MESSAGE?

2-EXIST OTHER WAY TO DISCOVER WHERE IS THE MESSAGE?

3-IF THE MESSAGE IS IN TEXT-0* ,CAN i USE THE RPR_ABAP_SOURCE_SCAN TO FIND IT?

I,m working with HR portal the user do the process in Internet portal and comunicate with sap by rfc.

I debuged but I don´t find in standard.

Please help me.

Thanks.

Texts may be stored in tables, text elements, OTR. Translatable texts are most likely not stored in programs.

[ronaldo_aparecido]

The text is in my language I think that it can is in program like hardoce but I don´n Find.

You can search the text in table T100 to get message class. Then you can do a where-used list for that text number or use code scanning.

[ronaldo_aparecido]

Manish I searched in T100 but dont find.

Can it is in program like a hardcode?

How can I find ?

Thanks.

[matt]

If it is hardcoded in a program then RPR_ABAP_SOURCE_SCAN will find it.

[Former Member]

It is possible that message is having parameter.

For example, "Document 12345 posted." would be in T100 as "Document & posted", and program would pass the number at run time. T100 is just one of many possibilities.

Hi ,

Where sap store program text symbols ?

See original message:

"3-IF THE MESSAGE IS IN TEXT-0* ,CAN i USE THE RPR_ABAP_SOURCE_SCAN TO FIND IT?"

Hi ,

Program texts can be read using read textpool statement.

DATA lt_texts TYPE TABLE OF textpool.

READ TEXTPOOL sy-repid INTO lt_texts.

/.

[rosenberg_eitan]

Hi,

Thanks.

I know that but I was too lazy to search for the table .

Regards .

ST05 ?

[Former Member]

ST05 won't give anything as there is no select query involved.

[rosenberg_eitan]

Hi,

I am not happy .

So a program that loops on TRDIR and do READ TEXTPOOL for each ?

Regards.

[Former Member]

Yes. I used to maintain an excel file having program texts and message class texts for all custom objects. It was helpful in support environment. File was updated on weekly basis.

[rosenberg_eitan]

Hi,

Good idea .

Thanks .

[rosenberg_eitan]

Hi.

Have you wrote an article about it ?

Regards.

[Former Member]

No I haven't written about it because my approach was not end-user friendly (involves regex and Notepad++).

There is this Mass Download tool which allows you to download all types of codes arranged nicely in folders and sub-folders.

It was taking too much time in our environment because of overhead of opening and closing every file on presentation server. I took inspiration from that tool to download few big files (one each for class, report, function module etc ) compressed in zip format. The combined files had sort of xml tags as marker to distinguish one object from another. Something like <name>ZTEST</name><code>report...data...</code><name>ZTEST2</name><code>...

The uncompressed source codes size was ~200MB and I used Notepad++ or GVim to perform search for hard-coded text or code snippet of particular pattern.

[rosenberg_eitan]

Wow !!!!

Those people are good....

Many thanks for the link .

Hi,

In what transaction ? custom development ?

Regards.

[ronaldo_aparecido]

Hi guys

Please see attached

My message is in SY-MSGV1 and is 'Férias não podem começar aos Sábados'

But it occurs after pass by :

CALL DIALOG 'HR_MAINTAIN_MASTER_DATA' USING BDCDATA MODE 'N'

       EXPORTING

         PSPAR

         PROPOSED_VALUES

         LUW_MODE

         PS

         PSINFO

         PREFTAB

       IMPORTING

         PS

         PSINFO

         PREFTAB

         PSPAR

         PROPOSED_VALUES

         MODIFIED_KEYS.

and next he uses:

GET PARAMETER ID 'P_RP_INFOTYP_MESSAGE'                 "XDPK004796

             FIELD RP_INFOTYP_MESSAGE. 

the function is HR_MAINTAIN_MASTERDATA.

[rosenberg_eitan]

Please check:

Also try to locate the set parameter for:

[ronaldo_aparecido]

Ok I will try

THanks

[ronaldo_aparecido]

HI

How can I filter it in RPR_ABAP_SOURCE_SCAN?

Because is very slow.

[rosenberg_eitan]

Hi,

Use can use debug. Use the "break on statement"  

Using your info I managed to find this: (but it is just clearing)

I did not use debug(regular find function of se80)

Regards

[ronaldo_aparecido]

thanks Eitan I find but I dont understan where he do the logic to return the message in set parameter

he uses the call dialog but in debug i don 't find where he do the logico to return the message .

[rosenberg_eitan]

Hi,

You need to break on all the "SET" .

Hopefully one of them will put something into P_RP_INFOTYP_MESSAGE .

This is the theory  based on your debug.

Regards.

[ronaldo_aparecido]

THanks Mr .

You is really Good.

Thanks comunitty.

[rosenberg_eitan]

Hi,

Assuming all the calls occours within the same package (PBAS) I found those (quite quick):

Try to break point there.

I have to ask our HR consultant but could it be that HR use its own message table .

Regards.
