Hi Experts,

I want to add an exception to a method which is Public showing as grayed out. When I click on Exceptions button and changed to Change mode, still showing up grayed out empty fields. Please assist me how to add an exception to existing method.

Dear Prashanth,

Does that method belong to a super class ?

Does that method belong to an interface ?

Is this a standard or a custom WD ?

If it is a standard, can you tell me its ID please.

Kind Regards

Hi Recardo,

Thank you for your reply.

The custom method belongs to an interface and the interface is the customized one.

Thanks,

Dear Prashanth,

then that explains it.

You can't add new parameters or exceptions to a method that belongs an interface, if that method is being implemented on a new class.

To add new parameters or exceptions to this method, you need to go to its origin.

That is - the Interface.

It is on the interface that you need to apply that change, and then all the classes that implement this interface will have these new settings reflected on its methods.

Hi Prasanth,

As you know that proxy objects(interfaces) are generated in the transaction SPROXY and we implement it in a class in sproxy itself. Generally we regenerate the interface( not tired to modify the generated parameters in the interface).

There are two documents in sap please check it.

[You can display and edit ABAP proxy objects using the Enterprise Services Repository Browser|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70ehp2/helpdata/en/b3/96bcc5a5e3457a84e907c371e88fcb/content.htm]

[You cannot change ABAP proxy objects manually in the SAP system|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/ab/585f3c482a7331e10000000a114084/content.htm]
