SET RUN TIME ANALYZER

Short Reference

Syntax

SET RUN TIME ANALYZER {ON|OFF}.

Effect

This statement influences the measurement of a program with the runtime analysis tool. If you activate the setting particular units in the runtime analysis, which can be done via Restrictions → Program units, the runtime analysis only measures statements that occur between SET RUNTIME ANALYZER ON and SET RUNTIME ANALYZER OFF.

System fields

The statement SET RUNTIME ANALYZER always sets the return value sy-subrc to 0.

Notes

• This statement should only be used in the test phase of a program, in order to enable a later runtime measurement independent of a source text.
  
• You can switch the runtime analysis on and off in the transation SE30, by selecting System → Utilities → Runtime analysis or by entering /RON and /ROFF in the input field of the system function bar
  
• As of Release 6.10, you can start and stop the runtime analysis on a program-controlled basis, by calling the static methods ON and OFF CL_ABAP_TRACE_SWITCH either before or the SET RUNTIME ANALYZER statements.
  
  
  

Example

If you execute the method m0 when the runtime analysis is switched on, only the runtime from callup and execution of the method m2 is measured.

METHOD m0.
  me->m1( ).
  SET RUN TIME ANALYZER ON.
  me->m2( ).
  SET RUN TIME ANALYZER OFF.
  me->m3( ).
ENDMETHOD.
