A few questions to the abap development team...

21 Views

Dear Developers,

I am submitting these questions to the ABAP development team at SAP regarding the language capabilities.

Coming from the Java/C world I am wondering if you plan the following possible "evolutions" of the ABAP language :

- a real boolean implementation in ABAP like in Java or C; possibly a OO class implementation with full operators;

-> the possibilty to write conditionnal expressions or assignements like the followings :

x = ( a and not b).

if (x or f(x)=false) then ...

- possibility in ABAP to nest function calls on objects like in most every OO language (java, c++, ruby...etc ) : x = a.b().c()

- Concerning the ABAP editor :

- fixing the problem with the drag n drop problem from the class browser to the source editor of long method+class/interface names

- real code completion on objects (no heuristic approach) by providing access to method or attribute names like in most OO IDEs

Any info could be interesting 😊

Best Regards,

Olivier MATT
