ALV List by calling SET_TABLE_FOR_FIRST_DISPLAY of CL_GUI_ALV_GRID

[Former Member]

Hi All

I want to display the output as a ALV List by calling method SET_TABLE_FOR_FIRST_DISPLAY of CL_GUI_ALV_GRID.

I see there is a protected attribute M_BATCH_MODE. How can I set this attribute to be true.

Or is there any other option through which I can get ALV List Output

Please note that I do not want the grid display

Thanks in advance

Hi Sriram,

Can you be more clear what exactly you want, or what exactly the problem you are Facing?

Please have a look at program DEMO_ABAP_OBJECTS_SPLIT_SCREEN

When you double click on the connections from the tree structure, it displays a ALV Grid

Instead of Grid I want a list (that which gets displayed in background mode)

Hope its clear

You want to display ALV list in part of the screen within module pool screen instead of full screen ( not like FM "REUSE_ALV_LIST_DISPLAY" and also not in popup ) ?

I am not sure if it is possible as the list display and the module pool screen are handled by two different WP's.

Presumably you are creating the grid in a custom container. Put it in a docking container instead.

Hi All

Appreciate your replies

Let me say more as to what I am doing. Please have a look into DEMO_ABAP_OBJECTS_SPLIT_SCREEN. Where in, there are splitter containers CONTAINER_LEFT and CONTAINER_RIGHT (instances of CL_GUI_SPLITTER_CONTAINER). The ALV I am talking about in this thread is displayed in CONTAINER_RIGHT

Rob, are you sugesting not to use CL_GUI_SPLITTER_CONTAINER and use CL_GUI_DOCKING_CONTAINER or create a docking container object inside CONTAINER_RIGHT? Can you please throw some more light!

Also, one more point i want to stress, I want "ALV List" while running in foreground. I have check out

How do I tell the program to run in background for the purposes of this ALV alone?

Thanks

Hello Sriram,

AFAIK you cannot display a list using CL_GUI_ALV_GRID in online mode. This holds true even if you use a docking container! I've checked it out myself

If you don't have any fascination to use OO approach to display the ALV list you can always use 'REUSE_ALV_LIST_DISPLAY'.

Otherwise you have to use the SALV model & pass LIST_DISPLAY = 'X' to the FACTORY( ) method.

BR,

Suhas

NB: The SALV model calls the function 'REUSE_ALV_LIST_DISPLAY' to display the list as well!

Try something like:

if cl_gui_alv_grid=>offline( ) is initial.
    if g_custom_container is initial.             " Foreground

      create object g_custom_container
        exporting
          container_name = g_container.

      create object grid1
        exporting
          i_parent = g_custom_container.

      create object r_disp.
      set handler r_disp->disp_code for grid1.

      report_level = 1.
    endif.
  else.                                       " Background

    create object grid1
      exporting
        i_parent = dock1.
  endif.

  call method grid1->set_table_for_first_display
    exporting
      i_structure_name = 'ZZFACPLSUM'
    changing
      it_outtab        = gt_zzfacplsum.

Thanks you very much for your inputs.

Conclusion is Cannot display ALV List through OO methodology in Foreground.

Reuse List FM does it on full screen which unfortunately is no-go for me

I dont think there is any way to force/fake the system before you do the table display
