ALV field click using SALV

[Former Member]

Dear friends,

i'm trying to get to the "on click" event of my ALV grid (cl_salv_table),

there i'll submit the field to another program.

Already defined the column as 'Hotspot' and the link is enabled, but where do i need to add the 'submit' statement?

I found something but looks like this guy over here implemented something much complicated than i need: https://archive.sap.com/discussions/thread/1817786

" Create Instance of ALV object
  CALL METHOD cl_salv_table=>factory
    IMPORTING
      r_salv_table = lo_grid
    CHANGING
      t_table      = lt_result.

  lo_columns = lo_grid->get_columns( ).

  " Optimizes the columns width
  lo_columns->set_optimize( abap_true ).

  lv_fname = 'PARTNER'.

  TRY .

      lo_column ?= lo_columns->get_column( lv_fname ).

    CATCH cx_salv_not_found.
  ENDTRY.

  TRY .
      lo_column->set_cell_type( value = if_salv_c_cell_type=>hotspot ).

    CATCH cx_salv_data_error.
  ENDTRY.

  " All events
  lo_events = lo_grid->get_event( ).

  " Display table
  lo_grid->display( ).   

thanks for help, Ofir.

Hi, you need to create a listener for the event.

    SET HANDLER ob_listener->on_simple_click FOR lo_grid->get_event( ).

The listener must have a method defined like this (the sender parameter is optional) :

    METHODS: on_simple_click FOR EVENT link_click OF cl_salv_events_table
      IMPORTING sender row column.

And the code inside the method will look like this :

  METHOD on_simple_click.
    
    IF column = lv_fname.
      READ TABLE lt_result ASSIGNING FIELD-SYMBOL(<ls_result>) INDEX row.
      CHECK sy-subrc EQ 0.
      "Do something with the selected record
    ENDIF.

  ENDMETHOD.

The link you found is correct because you need to handle hotspot click event to do the submit thing
