MESSAGES in Exception

[openPhiL]

I prefer using raises this way, but not all the time I realize.
Just recently, I wanted to log "more" - And found out that inside the exception, you do not have access to the message you added to it with your syntax above.
I haven't worked with a 7.52 system where you can do
raise exception xxx using message, that would solve this problem.

I would also add this! I constantly work with this type of exception handling.
Additionally, I put all relevant variables (msgid, msgty & msgno) into constants defined in an interface. This way I think exceptions are easy to read AND maintain.
Example:
RAISE EXCEPTION TYPE zcx_dummy MESSAGE ID zif_dummy=>c_msg_class-general TYPE 'E'
NUMBER zif_dummy=>c_general_msg-variable_not_found WITH variable.
