• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message TPDA858 - Watchpoint reached (&1) ?

  The SAP error message TPDA858 "Watchpoint reached (&1)" typically indicates that a watchpoint has been triggered during the execution of an ABAP program. A watchpoint is a debugging tool that allows developers to pause program execution when a specific condition is met, such as when a variable reaches a certain value.
  Cause:
  
  Debugging Session: The error usually occurs when a developer has set a watchpoint in the ABAP debugger, and the program execution reaches that point.
  Condition Met: The specific condition defined in the watchpoint has been met, causing the program to halt.
  Unintentional Trigger: Sometimes, watchpoints may be set unintentionally or may not be relevant to the current execution context.
  
  Solution:
  
  Continue Execution: If you are debugging and have reached a watchpoint, you can choose to continue execution by using the debugger's "Continue" option (F8) to bypass the watchpoint.
  Remove or Disable Watchpoint: If the watchpoint is no longer needed, you can remove or disable it in the debugger:
  
  Open the ABAP debugger.
  Navigate to the "Watchpoints" section.
  Delete or deactivate the watchpoint that is causing the interruption.
  
  
  Review Code Logic: If the watchpoint was set intentionally, review the code logic to ensure that the conditions leading to the watchpoint are correct and expected.
  Check for Unintended Breakpoints: Ensure that there are no unintended breakpoints set in the code that could be causing the program to halt unexpectedly.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Debugging in ABAP: Familiarize yourself with the ABAP debugger and how to set, modify, and remove watchpoints and breakpoints.
  Watchpoint Conditions: Understand how to define conditions for watchpoints effectively to avoid unnecessary interruptions during debugging.
  Performance Considerations: Excessive use of watchpoints can slow down program execution, so use them judiciously.
  
  If you are not in a debugging session and encounter this message, it may indicate that a watchpoint was left active from a previous debugging session. In such cases, you may need to restart the program or check the debugger settings to clear any active watchpoints.
