• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message COM_PME_PARSER548 - Compilation of dependency &1 incorrect: obj. variable required in line &2 ?

  The SAP error message COM_PME_PARSER548 indicates that there is a problem with the compilation of a dependency in your ABAP code. Specifically, it suggests that an object variable is required at a certain line in your code, but it is either missing or incorrectly defined.
  Cause:
  
  Incorrect Variable Declaration: The variable that is expected to be an object is either not declared as an object type or is declared incorrectly.
  Type Mismatch: The code may be trying to use a non-object variable where an object variable is required.
  Scope Issues: The variable might be out of scope or not accessible in the context where it is being used.
  Missing Object Instantiation: If you are trying to use an object variable without instantiating it, this error can occur.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Variable Declaration: Ensure that the variable in question is declared as an object type. For example, if you are using a class, make sure the variable is declared as an instance of that class.
  DATA: my_object TYPE REF TO my_class.
  
  
  Instantiate the Object: If the variable is an object reference, ensure that it is instantiated before use.
  CREATE OBJECT my_object.
  
  
  Review the Code: Look at the line number indicated in the error message (line &2) and check the context of the variable being used. Make sure it is being used correctly as an object.
  
  
  Check for Type Compatibility: Ensure that the variable being used is compatible with the expected type. If you are passing it to a method or function that expects an object, make sure it is indeed an object.
  
  
  Debugging: Use the ABAP debugger to step through the code and inspect the variables at runtime. This can help identify if the variable is null or not instantiated.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: If you are using standard SAP classes or methods, refer to the SAP documentation to ensure you are using them correctly.
