Description

The DEMO_RFM_CLASSIC_EXCEPTION function module triggers the non-class-based exception CLASSIC_EXCEPTION.

When DEMO_RFM_CLASSIC_EXCEPTION is called, EXCEPTIONS is specified and values for sy-subrc are assigned to the possible classic exceptions. If none of the predefined RFC interface exceptions are raised, sy-subrc is set to 3.
