Radio Buttons in the output of an ALV

As per business need there was a scenario for an ALV Report Output, It must
have functionality selecting only one row at a time. It is possible with Radio
buttons.

NOTE: Here we have two types of Radio buttons Icons i.e.

icon_wd_radio_button_empty (Empty Radio Button) and icon_radiobutton
(Selected Radio button)

Below are the steps to display Radio Buttons in the output of an ALV.

a)

Include ICONS.
INCLUDE <icons>.

b) Declare an internal table with the required fields and additional field
called RADIO of type CHAR of size 4.
c)
Define a class to handle an even HOTSPOT_CLICK o trigger when we
click on the radio button icon. Definition as coded below.
* Handles the Even when user clicks on any row.
METHODS: handle_hotspot_click FOR EVENT hotspot_click

OF cl_gui_alv_grid
IMPORTING e_row_id.

d) Do the implementation for the same class to handle the event i.e. if we
select a radio button, then the already selected radio button should be
deselect and new radio button should be selected. Code as follows.
*&--------------------------------------------------------------*

*& METHOD handle_hotspot_click.

*&--------------------------------------------------------------*
*& On double clicking a particulat row
*&--------------------------------------------------------------*
METHOD handle_hotspot_click .

CLEAR : gs_emp.
READ TABLE gt_emp INTO gs_emp

WITH KEY radio = icon_radiobutton.

IF sy-subrc NE 0.
CLEAR gs_emp .
READ TABLE gt_emp INTO gs_emp INDEX e_row_id.
IF gs_emp-radio = icon_radiobutton.
gs_emp-radio = icon_wd_radio_button_empty.
MODIFY gt_emp INDEX e_row_id FROM gs_emp
TRANSPORTING radio.
ELSE.
gs_emp-radio = icon_radiobutton.
MODIFY gt_emp INDEX e_row_id FROM gs_emp

TRANSPORTING radio.
ENDIF.
ELSE .
gs_emp-radio = icon_wd_radio_button_empty.
MODIFY gt_emp INDEX sy-tabix FROM gs_emp

TRANSPORTING radio.
CLEAR gs_emp.
READ TABLE gt_emp INTO gs_emp INDEX e_row_id .
IF sy-subrc = 0.
gs_emp-radio = icon_radiobutton.
MODIFY gt_emp INDEX e_row_id FROM gs_emp
TRANSPORTING radio.
ENDIF.
ENDIF .

CALL METHOD cl_gui_cfw=>set_new_ok_code

EXPORTING
new_code = 'REFRESH'
*

IMPORTING

rc

.
ENDMETHOD.

"handle_hotspot_click

e)
Update the RADIO button with empty radio button in the internal table.
Code as follows.
LOOP AT gt_emp INTO gs_emp.
gs_emp-radio = icon_wd_radio_button_empty.
MODIFY gt_emp FROM gs_emp TRANSPORTING radio.
ENDLOOP.
f)
While preparing the field catalogue, Prepare field catalogue for that
additional field RADIO as coded below.
ls_fieldcat-reptext

= 'Radio Button'.

ls_fieldcat-fieldname = 'RADIO'.
ls_fieldcat-ref_table = 'gt_emp'.
ls_fieldcat-icon

= 'X'.

ls_fieldcat-hotspot

= 'X'.

ls_fieldcat-col_pos

= '1'.

"Icons
"Hotspot(Hand Symbol)

g) Refresh the grid, Perform REFRESH action when the radio button is
selected.
* Define local data
DATA:ls_stable TYPE lvc_s_stbl.

ls_stable-row = abap_true.
ls_stable-col = abap_true.

CALL METHOD gv_grid->refresh_table_display

EXPORTING
is_stable = ls_stable
EXCEPTIONS
finished = 1
OTHERS

= 2.

IF sy-subrc <> 0.
* MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO
*

WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.

ENDIF.
