Events of the SAP Calender Control

Use

Using the SAP calendar control events, you can respond to user interactions:

Event	Event ID cl_gui_calendar=>	Meaning
DATE_SELECTED	M_ID_DATE_SELECTED	A date or date range was selected.
INFO_REQUEST	M_ID_INFO_REQUEST	Scrolling beyond the limits of the date range loaded. If required, new information on the adjacent date range must be loaded (see method set_day_info)
CTXMENU_REQUEST	M_ID_CTXMENU_REQUEST	A context menu was requested. Note: Not available under SAPGUI for HTML
CTXMENU_SELECTED	M_ID_CTXMENU_SELECTED	An option of the context menu was chosen. Note: Not available under SAPGUI for HTML

Caution

A control-specific context menu appears in the area for displaying the month and the year within the calendar control. If an option of this menu is chosen, event CTXMENU_SELECTED is not triggered.

You get the following event parameters for this event:

Event	Parameter	Meaning
DATE_SELECTED	date_begin	Selected date or beginning of range selected
DATE_SELECTED	date_end	End of selected range
INFO_REQUEST	date_begin	Begin of range that is reloaded
INFO_REQUEST	date_end	End of date range
CTXMENU_REQUEST	ctxmenu_id	This field specifies where the context menu was requested: cnca_ctxmenu_navigator_date : Requested on a specific date cnca_ctxmenu_navigator_day : Requested on a weekday (for example, Monday) cnca_ctxmenu_navigator_week : Requested on a week (for example, CW 20)
CTXMENU_SELECTED	fcode	Function code of selected context menu

Integration

If you need to respond to these events in your ABAP program, you must register these events. To do this, you use method set_registered_events. Events that you do not register are filtered at the frontend and are not transferred to the backed. See Event Handling.
