SAP-EP in ABAP and JAVA ?????

[srinivas_m2]

Hi all,

When i started studying about for implementing each and every thing in EP/EP-related things it can be done in ABAP and JAVA as well.

I am really worried about this i am already an ABAP consultant and though i have knowledge of J2EE i prefer to follow ABAP version of EP i.e. Dynpro in ABAP and Adobe forms in ABAP..

But i heard that market is good only Java version of implementing the EP.

and SAP it self is suggesting to go for JAVA version.. in that case why has it created ABAP dynpro,ADOBE forms etc etc.

why there are 2 ways (JAVA and ABAP) is it to confuse?? please help .. even if i learn ABAP version of everything will that be useful or not?? As u r already into EP,you guys can tell me is there market for ABAP version of implementing EP related things!!

Please reply.

hi srinivas....

this is what i feel abt the question......

to answer ur question, one has to think in the perspective of SAP Labs.

there are two ways of doing what u have mentioned and its not to confuse.....

ABAP is the proprietary language of SAP and therefore u dont find as many developers or intellectual manpower in ABAP as u can find for JAVA.....

SAP is trying to focus and capture the medium and small scale markets and industries for which it requires lot of manpower.....

so JAVA is its choice.....

there can be a lot more reasons behind it.....but this is what i feel.....
