Overview

Represents a remote-enabled function module for RFC, can be instantiated either by the caller or by calling Connection#get_function. This only represents the description of the function; to call a function, an instance of a function call must be obtained with #get_function_call

Constructor Details

#new(connection, function_name) ⇒ Function #new(function_name) ⇒ Function

Get a function module instance; can also be obtained by calling Connection#get_function Takes either: (connection, function_name) or (function_name) When passed only ‘function_name`, creates a new function description locally, instead of fetching it form the server pointed to by connection

Overloads:

  • #new(connection, function_name) ⇒ Function

    Fetches a function definition from the server pointed to by the connection

    Parameters:

    • connection (Connection) —

      Connection to SAP ABAP system

    • function_name (String) —

      Name of the function module on the connected system

  • #new(function_name) ⇒ Function

    Returns a new function descriptor. This is ideally used in the case of establishing a server function. In this case, the function cannot be used to make a remote function call.

    Parameters:

    • function_name (String) —

      Name of the new function module

Instance Method Details

#add_parameter(parameter) ⇒ Object

Add a parameter to a function module. Ideally to be used in the case where a function definition is built up in the client code, rather than fetching it from the server for a remote call

Parameters:

  • Definition (Parameter) —

    of a function module parameter
