Creating editor for dynamic code (SE38

like)
Tags: SYNTAX-CHECK , RS_TOOL_ACCESS , EDITOR_TABLE_WITH_STATUS ,
SAPGUI_SET_FUNCTIONCODE , PRETTY_PRINTER
I had a thought one day to use a code saved in database table for easy change of some
calculation rules and I've prepared code to run SE38 like editor for such code. Maybe
some of you also had such need, so today I will explain briefly how to do this. I will use
FM 'EDITOR_TABLE_WITH_STATUS' to display an editor which you know from
SE38/SE80 , 'SAPGUI_SET_FUNCTIONCODE' for setting OK_CODE for editor,
'PRETTY_PRINTER' to make our code looks readable. I will also use one trick that
allows you to assign data which is available in calling program but not in our function.
But before we need to prepare our own GUI status with some basic buttons like 'Patern'
or 'Pretty Printer'.

After we create status we can create the ABAP code:

report editor_test.

start-of-selection.
fs_code = 'PROGRAM DYNAMIC_FORMS.'.
append fs_code to ft_code.
fs_code = 'form test changing f_string type string.'.
append fs_code to ft_code.
fs_code = 'f_string = sy-uname.'.
append fs_code to ft_code.
fs_code = 'endform.'.

append fs_code to ft_code.

And here is our result :-)

You should take care about saving function but that should not be a problem as you
already seen in the code how to get the table with the code to local table. You can also
add more functions for example: 'Where used list' (FM 'RS_TOOL_ACCESS') or syntax
check (SYNTAX-CHECK).
When you have your final code you can then generate a temporary program from it using
syntax found below and then call dynamically your forms created there.
generate subroutine pool ft_code name g_prog message f_msg.
