Application log : create tree message

[Former Member]

Hi,

i need to use Application log, and i would like to have a tree of data, for example :

. File number xxxxxx

. Header

. Message 1

. Message 2

. Data

. Message 1

. Message 2

I know to use FM 'BAL_LOG_CREATE', 'BAL_LOG_MSG_ADD' and 'BAL_DSP_LOG_DISPLAY' but how can i implement my need ? I take a look at the programme SBAL_DEMO_05 that is my need but sorry i don't understand how it works.

Thanks for your help.

the structure of a BAL message is fixed but you have one generic field called CONTEXT of type BAL_S_CONT

look at it in the DDIC : you have pairs of tabname and value

tabname contains the name of structure and value the contents of structure

the tree display comes from the display profile: see structure BAL_S_PROF

you have fields called LEV1_FCAT, LEV2_FCAT and so on... which allow you to create n levels in your tree

look at routine display_logs in your sample program to see how to populate the levels (basically one field of context per level)

First read some documentation to better understand SBAL_DEMO_05 program, try [Application Log|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_tm80/helpdata/en/d3/1fa03940fab918e10000000a114084/frameset.htm] [Guidelines for Developers|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_tm80/helpdata/en/d6/5d7f38f52f923ae10000009b38f8cf/frameset.htm]

Hi all,

you can also use CL_PTU_MESSAGE to display and log the messages

sample code is below

data: g_log  type ref to cl_ptu_message,
       ls_log type bal_s_log.

* maintain from transaction slg0  (object and subobject of obcejt)
ls_log-object    = 'ZOBJ'.
ls_log-subobject = 'ZSUB'.

create object g_log
   exporting
     is_log = ls_log.


call method g_log->if_ptu_message~add_text
   exporting
     iv_type = 'S'
     iv_text = 'Program executed'.


call method g_log->if_ptu_message~add_text
   exporting
     iv_type = 'W'
     iv_text = 'There Will be warnings'.


call method g_log->if_ptu_message~add_text
   exporting
     iv_type = 'E'
     iv_text = 'Also Errors!!'.



g_log->save_log( ).

call method g_log->display_log.
