Old and new exceptions cannot be used at the same time

Hi,

I am getting this error, "Old and new exceptions cannot be used at the same time" for the following code, does anyone have any info on this

method add_item_to_cart.

*check if item exists
  try.
      zcl_ec_cart=>read_cart_item( i_cust_id = i_cartitem_att-cust_id
                                   i_produ = i_cartitem_att-produ ).
      RAISE EXCEPTION TYPE zcx_ec_cart
            EXPORTING
               textid = zcx_ec_cart=>already_exists
               produ = i_cartitem_att-PRODU.
      EXIT.
    catch zcx_ec_cart .
  endtry.

  data l_cart type ref to zcl_ec_cart.
  l_cart = zcl_ec_cart=>create_cart_item( i_cust_id = i_cartitem_att-cust_id
                                          i_produ = i_cartitem_att-produ  ).
  move-corresponding i_cartitem_att to l_cart->cart_att.

  l_cart->update_cart_item( ).
  commit work.
endmethod.

the error points to the RAISE EXCEPTION statement

Hi,

In the method definition (tab exceptions) check whether the "class exceptions" flag is set.

Does your method have any non-class based exceptions defined ? SAP says:

The statement RAISE EXCEPTION must not be used in a method or a function module in whose interface non class-based exceptions are declared.
