ABAP TIP how to check the max/min value each abap type

Let's see how to check the max/min value depending data type. First, you can check the these values with F1 help reference.

It's also possible to check by using class 'CL_ABAP_EXCEPTIONAL_VALUES'. you can protect the dump error in advance.

 

Let's make a program to check the max/min value with the method of 'get_max_value' and ' get_min_value'.

REPORT  ztest. DATA : gv_int TYPE i. DATA : dref TYPE REF TO data. FIELD-SYMBOLS  <fs_out>  TYPE ANY. CALL METHOD cl_abap_exceptional_values=>get_max_value   EXPORTING     in  = gv_int   RECEIVING     out = dref. ASSIGN dref->* TO <fs_out>. WRITE <fs_out>.
