Making row selection in a table control dynamic

PAI event automatically.

But in some cases, users row selection on table control should be responded immediately without waiting until next PAI event is invoked. For eg. Customer asked me to change the menu dynamically when user select or deselect a row (only single selection is allowed in this scenario.)

Solution:

Added a push button (with function code 'ROWS') as the first column in the table control.

Deselected the "lineselection" option of the tablecontrol.

Used a variable "prev_selected" to reflect the on/off state of the button.

when ok-code = 'ROWS', identified the selected row using "GET CURSOR FIELD...." (PAI)

When the button state changed from "off" to "on" highlighted the selected row using the "SCREEN-INTENSIFIED" attribute inside the loop at screen(PBO)

Portion of the ABAP code (PAI and PBO) is shown below. TBL_ZAWBST is the table control variable.

PROCESS BEFORE OUTPUT.
 MODULE STATUS_0100.
  LOOP AT INT_TRIGGERS
 WITH CONTROL TBL_ZAWBST CURSOR TBL_ZAWBST-CURRENT_LINE.
    MODULE DISPLAY_TRIGGERS.
  ENDLOOP.
 
PROCESS AFTER INPUT.
  LOOP AT INT_TRIGGERS.
    MODULE SET_LINE_COUNT.
  ENDLOOP.
 
MODULE USER_COMMAND_0100.
