Function Module to open a new session displaying a method of a class

Question

Hello All,
I have a method A of class B.
Now, in my current session, I have a button. When the user clicks on this button, what I expect is that a new session be opened and in the new session method A of class B be displayed.
This is similar to the debugger, wherein, in the debugging mode, we can bring up the context menu in the Source Code (Edit Control) tool, and then select "Go To Source Code".
So basically, I am looking for a Function Module which does the same.
I came across Function Module CC_CALL_TRANSACTION_NEW_TASK, however, this will only create a new session.
I could specify the transaction as SE24, but it then opens a new session with this transaction. That is it.
My objective is to display the method of a class in a new session.
Is there any Function Module in this case?
Regards,
Mithun

Answer 1

Hello Sandra,
Thank you very much. That was exactly what I was looking for.
However, instead of calling EDITOR_PROGRAM directly, what I instea did was the following:
1) Created a RFC enabled Function module.
2) Inside this function module, I wrote the following code:
  SUBMIT tpda_editor_start AND RETURN
   WITH prgm  = is_alert_det-program_name
   WITH incl = is_alert_det-include_name
   WITH dynp = space
   WITH line = is_alert_det-line_no.
The parameters above were similar to the one proposed by you.
Borrowed the above from the class CL_TPDA_SERVICES_TOOLS, method NAVIGATE_TO_SOURCE.
The above is basically called in the debugger, when we use the context menu in the editor tool and invoke the "Goto Source Code" functionality. This eventually calls the EDITOR_PROGRAM FM.
The reason why I did this is because when I was testing the FM, it did not allow me to specify the include as CL_TEST=====CM01. I do not know why, probably I was doing it wrong. But it gave me a message saying that the object does not exist in table TADIR.
Anyway, I did the above steps and it worked exactly as I wanted it to.
I would like to thank you again.
Best Regards,
Mithun
P.S. Forgot to add, I called the above RFC enabled FM as a new task.
