Dear Rohit,

Just hardcode Break-point in your code where you want the breakpoint.

Then go ou of the tcode sxi_mapping_test...This is ver imp...if you have any sessions of sxi_mapping_test open...after putting the breakpoint...open a fresh session by typing /nsxi_mapping_test.

I tries this today and it has worked..

Giving points is another way to say thanks

Go through this.

Secondly to set External Break-Point in you proxy program go to:

Utilities ->settings-> debugging, then tick the checkbox. After this put your cursor where you wnat to have the break point. Now when you press the break point button it will show an option to chose the external break point, select that option.

One more thing while debugging you must have an open session of your proxy program, otherwise you will not get the break point at runtime.

can't you put external break point in the generated ABAP mapping class

Hi ,

Please use tcode: SXI_MAPPING_TEST for debugging the ABAP mapping.

Set trace on line where you want to debug.

I hope this will help you to find problems in your program.

Hi,

Using transaction 'sxi_mapping_test' you need to set trace after every line for which you feel there could be problem and in target message go through the trace generated

Can you please give me an example how to write the code for trace and where can we see the results?

I tried this but could not see anything?

thanks,

Hi rohit ,

Put the external breakpoint in your ABAP class code and then execute your sceanrio.

After getting executed it will get stop at the line where you have kept the breakpoint at runtime.

It is important to put breakpoink where exactly it could help you to get the problem resolved.

Hi!

Write this code in your ABAP mapping BEFORE the point you want to check:

data: int type i value 0.

while int = 0.

int = 0.

endwhile.

This endless loop will execute. Go into transaction code SM50, mark the line of your process and go to Program/Session -> Program -> Debugging -> Yes.

Change the value of variable "int" to 1 and start debugging...

Use transaction sxi_mapping_test. Set the trace there.
