System, Update, Memory & Background Debugging

35 Views

Hi Experts,

Can anyone of you please explain me about System, Update, Memory & Background Debugging? I have gone through the earlier posts in the forum and have got a bit ot idea like:

The System Debugging function enables the user to analyze system programs, in addition to application programs.

Update debugging is used to debug the SAP standard code that gets executed while system performs update functions like during a COMMIT WORK.

Memory debugging is used to monitor the usage of memory for any memory leaks in the program.

Could anyone please give me a bit more idea like an example situation where the update debugging or memory debugging might be exactly used by an ABAPer in realtime. One of my classmates told me that, "System debugging is rarely used in situations like when there isnt anything wrong with our code but we arent getting the desired output. We do that to try look for any bug in the SAP standard code so that we can then raise an OSS notes.." Please help me with your explanations as I need this information for an interview that I have to attend shortly.

Thanks.
