Exception ​

Beyond plain messages, abap2UI5 ships dedicated popups and fallbacks for handling exceptions and unexpected failures.

Error Popup ​

To display full details of your exception:

abap
METHOD z2ui5_if_app~main.

  TRY.
    DATA(lv_val) = 1 / 0.
  CATCH cx_root INTO DATA(lx).
    client->nav_app_call( z2ui5_cl_pop_error=>factory( lx ) ).
  ENDTRY.

ENDMETHOD.

Uncaught Errors ​

When your code doesn't catch exceptions, the framework catches them and displays the standard error popup. Try this:

abap
METHOD z2ui5_if_app~main.

    RAISE EXCEPTION NEW cx_sy_itab_line_not_found( ).

ENDMETHOD.

Uncatchable Exceptions / Short Dumps ​

What happens if your code raises uncatchable exceptions? The default HTTP handler exception output appears. Processing halts, and the user has to reload the browser. Reserve this for unexpected cases:

abap
METHOD z2ui5_if_app~main.

    ASSERT 1 = `This is an error message!`.

ENDMETHOD.

For non-exception failures (binding-path mismatches, malformed XML, and other silent frontend issues), see Common Failures.

For EML-specific failure handling (FAILED / REPORTED, transactional behavior, cx_abap_behv, cx_abap_lock_failure, defensive TRY/CATCH patterns), see the EML page.
