ADT Class Documentation - How to display?

dominik_ritter

Hello,

Currently I am trying out ABAP in Eclipse for developments.

Now I have a question: in SE24 I can click on "Class Documentation" (for example CL_SALV_TABLE) and I can have a look at it.

In ADT I do not know where to see the actual class documentation (I am not talking about ABAPDoc, I guess 🙂 ).

Can someone help me here?

Hi Dominik,

that's an easy task when you know how 🙂

Just press F2 on the name of the object and you will get the documentation.

Regards,

Thomas.

Hi Thomas,

I just tried but somehow there is no link "Longtext documentation" available for me.

- When I press F2 on the definition, it says Code element Information not available... It works only on the implementation part of the class but there I can't see the link to the longtext.

I am on a 740 SP08 system, if that matters....

Best regards,

Dominik

Hi Dominik,

I'm so sorry. You need AS ABAP 7.50 to consume that feature.

Hi Thomas,

Thanks for the clarification.

That might take some time...

Best regards,

Thomas,

What about the program documentation? How do I navigate to that?

Hi Kenneth,

Sorry, I am afraid. It is not supported to show the documentation of programs in ADT, currently.

Kind regards,
Michael

ken_bm_sap michael.schneider at least there's a simple way to navigate from ADT to the documentation Open With -> SAP GUI that displays the program inside SE38 (and, as before ADT, Menu -> Goto -> Documentation)

sandra.rossi You are right. 😉

I had a native integration of documentation in ADT in mind as described by thomasfiedler above. This is available for classes, interfaces and function modules, but (unfortunately) not for programs.
