Component: BC-ABA
Component Name: ABAP Runtime Environment
Description: A tool for executing a limited range of runtime checks. Each specific check, collects runtime-relevant information during program execution. In addition, the Runtime Check Monitor provides specialized views for data analysis.
Key Concepts: The Runtime Check Monitor (RCM) is a component of the ABAP Runtime Environment (BC-ABA) in SAP. It is used to monitor the runtime behavior of ABAP programs and detect potential errors. It can detect errors such as memory leaks, incorrect data access, and incorrect program logic. How to use it: The RCM can be enabled in the ABAP system by setting the parameter “abap/runtime_check_monitor” to “on”. Once enabled, the RCM will monitor all ABAP programs that are executed in the system. The RCM will then generate a report that contains information about any errors that were detected. Tips & Tricks: It is important to note that the RCM should only be used for debugging purposes and not for production systems. Additionally, it is recommended to use the RCM in combination with other debugging tools such as the ABAP Debugger and the ABAP Profiler.
