TPDA146
- Breakpoints can only be set on executable lines ?The SAP error message TPDA146: Breakpoints can only be set on executable lines typically occurs when you attempt to set a breakpoint in a section of ABAP code that is not executable. This can happen for several reasons, and understanding the cause can help you resolve the issue.
Causes:
- Non-Executable Lines: You may be trying to set a breakpoint on comments, declarations, or other non-executable lines of code.
- Inactive Code: The line where you are trying to set the breakpoint might be part of an inactive code block (e.g., within a conditional statement that is not currently true).
- Form/Method Declarations: Breakpoints cannot be set on the declaration of forms or methods; they must be set within the executable part of the code.
- Code Outside of Main Program: If you are trying to set a breakpoint in a subroutine or method that is not currently being executed, it will not work.
Solutions:
- Identify Executable Lines: Ensure that you are setting the breakpoint on a line of code that is actually executable. Look for lines that contain operations, assignments, or function calls.
- Check Code Flow: If the code is conditional, ensure that the condition is met so that the code block containing the breakpoint will be executed.
- Use Debugger: If you are unsure where to set the breakpoint, you can start the debugger and step through the code to find an appropriate location.
- Review Code Structure: Make sure that the code structure is correct and that you are not trying to set breakpoints in declarations or comments.
