SALV Table 10 Editable SALVModel (Overcome the restriction ofSALV Model)By Naimesh Patel | December 2, 2008 | SALV Table, SALV Tutorial, Tutorials | view 13,716 |comment 4

We all know that ABAP Object is very powerful over the classical ABAP. Here I want to share one of mybest experiments with the ABAP objects to overcome the restrictions of SALV mdoel.

OriginalInitially I posted this article on SCN Power of ABAP Objects: Overcome the Restrictions of SALV Model ,which got lot of criticism and praise as well. When SCN was migrated to new system, the code snippetformatting got lost. So, I decided to move it here with the formatting.

BackgroundI was reading the help on the CL_SALV_TABLE to get more insight of how to use this new SALV modeleffectively. When I came across the section Recommendation and Restriction, I was amazed by readingTables displayed with ALV are not ready for input.

It was very hard for me to understand this restriction because: The new SALV model is unified objectoriented model which has kind of wrapper classes which are ultimately calling the FMREUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY or REUSE_ALV_LIST_DISPLAY; class GL_GUI_ALV_GRID and so on. So, ifthe ALV created with the CL_GUI_ALV_GRID can be ready for input, why cant the ALV created with theSALV model be the Ready for input? This propelled me to analyze how we can make the ALV Full-screenas Set ready for Input.

Journey to find the solutionBy putting breakpoints and debugging, I came to know that when I tried to generate the fullscreen ALV, it



calls the FM REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY and this FM in turn uses the class CL_GUI_ALV_GRID togenerate the ALV.Before couple of months, I came across a very powerful function moduleGET_GLOBALS_FROM_SLVC_FULLSCR which gives us the object of type GL_GUI_ALV_GRID which wascreated to generate the fullscreen ALV. I have used this FM in couple of programs to achieve somefunctionality which is not possible using the FM REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY. Some of them:

Move Cursor to next row by pressing enter in Full-screen ALVFull-screen ALV: Disable DELTE key of KeyboardFull-screen ALV: Change SubtotalRe: Can we scroll to the last page of an alv grid?

Basically, to achieve this type of not achievable functionality of the Fullscreen ALV, I get the object using theFM GET_GLOBALS_FROM_SLVC_FULLSCR and use the methods available in theCL_GUI_GRID_DISPLAY followed by the refresh method to refresh the ALV.

Based on the assumption if I get the ALV object from the SALV model than I can make the SALV modelALV to Set Ready for input I have started searching the ALV object in the SALV model. At the very topnode of the SALV model CL_SALV_MODEL, I got the methods (GET_GRID) which can provide me the ALVgrid object.UML diagram contains the SALV hierarchy and visibility of the R_CONTROLLER:

Class CL_SALV_MODEL has a protected attribute R_CONTROLLER which has everything I need to get toGRID object. So, I tried to access that attribute directly, but obviously I didnt work as I didnt have the objectreference for the CL_SALV_MODEL. By this point of time, I have tried all the normal ways to get the accessthe R_CONTROLLER like Feild-symbol to access the object from memory but that didnt work either.

Solution



I knew that I have to think in a different way, and I tried to inherite the class from the classCL_SALV_MODEL_LIST, passed the ALV model to the class and tried to access the R_CONTROLLER andBINGO I am able to access the R_CONTROLLER in my inherited class.UML Diagram shows the iherited class along with the existing SALV model:

Steps to follow:

1. Inherited a local class LCL_SALV_MODEL from the CL_SALV_MODEL_LIST2. Generate SALV model to generate the ALV object3. Used narrow casting to get the CL_SALV_MODEL object from the ALV object4. Passed this CL_SALV_MODEL object to the inherited class LCL_SALV_MODEL. SinceLCL_SALV_MODEL is inherited from the CL_SALV_MODEL_LIST, it allows me to access theR_CONTROLLER of the CL_SALV_MODEL.5. Get the GRID object from the object MODEL -> Controller -> Adapter -> Grid.6. Set the Layout for EDIT and Refresh the ALV.

When we run the report, ALV will not come directly in the input mode:



As soon as we press the My Function button, ALV will change into editable ALV. This ALV will have itsseparate GUI Status which contains all the required buttons for the Editable ALV.

UML DiagramUML diagram for code snippet:

Here is the code, which I used to get the access of the GRID object from the SALV model and to make ALVeditable. Here I have used the PF-STATUS avaliable in the report program SALV_DEMO_TABLE_EVENTSfor easy installation of this demo report.

Example 2: Background Wallpaper in ALV created using SALVmodelWhen we pass the parameter I_BACKGROUND_ID in the function module REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY,we will get the background wallpaper in the top of page section of the ALV.

SALV model uses the class CL_SALV_FORM_DYDOS to generate the TOP-OF-PAGE header from theSALV Form object (CL_SALV_FORM). CL_SALV_FORM is used to generate the Header in the SALVmodel.When SALV model creates an object for the CL_SALV_FORM_DYDOS, it doesnt pass the Wallpaperpicture. Thus, we are not able to get the header background wallpaper in the SALV model.

To get the wallpaper in the header, we can use the same solution which we have used to make EditableALV.ALV header without wallpaper using the SALV model:



ALV header with the wallpaper using the SALV model:

Code snippet to get the header with the wallpaper:

Get the Header in the SALV:

* Code comes before the calling the Display method of SALV* O_SALV->DISPLAY( )*...Header.......... ............................................... DATA: lo_header TYPE REF TO cl_salv_form_layout_grid, lo_h_label TYPE REF TO cl_salv_form_label, lo_h_flow TYPE REF TO cl_salv_form_layout_flow.* header object CREATE OBJECT lo_header.* information in Bold lo_h_label = lo_header->create_label( row = 1 COLUMN = 1 ). lo_h_label->set_text( 'Header in Bold' ).* information in tabular format lo_h_flow = lo_header->create_flow( row = 2 COLUMN = 1 ). lo_h_flow->create_text( text = 'This is text of flow' ).* set the top of list using the header for Online. o_salv->set_top_of_list( lo_header ).

Set the background wallpaper by accessing the GRID and TOP-of-LIST object

* Code comes in the event handler of the added button.* Get the Grid



lo_grid = lo_full_adap->get_grid( ).* Got the Grid.. ? IF lo_grid IS BOUND. DATA: lo_form_tol TYPE REF TO cl_salv_form, lo_dydos TYPE REF TO cl_salv_form_dydos.* Get the Top of list object using the adapter CALL FUNCTION 'GET_GLOBALS_FROM_SLVC_FULLSCR' EXPORTING ir_salv_fullscreen_adapter = lo_full_adap IMPORTING er_form_tol = lo_form_tol.* Got the Top Of List object.. ? IF lo_form_tol IS BOUND.* get the object using the Wide Casting lo_dydos ?= lo_form_tol.* set the wallpaper lo_dydos->set_wallpaper( 'ALV_BACKGROUND' ).* refresh the table CALL METHOD lo_grid->refresh_table_display. ENDIF. ENDIF.

Because I am still develop interface, I want appear sound via internal speaker if any error.

hopefully you can help me.thx a lot before and after.

Anonymous# December 27th, 2010 at 2:19 pmYour blog is very helpful. Thank you.

Where is the editable ALV useful. Is it just to edit the data and then the printout or we can useit to post data or maintain the table too.

Thanks

Steve Oldner# September 27th, 2011 at 7:18 amIn 10 years, I have coded only 5 editable ALVs (using the old cl_gui_alv_grid), so this is not animportant tool in my toolbox. What I found very funny was SAPs responses. They could havehad a disclaimer such as SALV is not editable and we will NOT provide support!.

Heep up the great work!

Yes, you are correct. SAP has documented that SALV is not editable but they nevermentioned that they wont support if someone tries to do this type of tricks.
