[Former Member]

Hey friends ! I am trying to switch to netweaver from ABAP !

What is the difference between SAP 4.6c and netweaver.

Does netweaver support ABAP ?

Please explain in your words...not links thanks !

Netweaver is the platform in which all SAP solutions run on top of. There are two stacks or flavors, the ABAP stack, and the java stack. SAP myERP 2005(which is a brand name) or ECC 6.0(Core compoent, formerly R/3) runs in the ABAP stack of Netweaver 2004s. This ABAP stack can be compared to the technology layer formerly known as "Basis" in earlier versions of R/3, but with a lot of enhancements and new developments.

What is the transaction to write JAVA code !

[RichHeilman]

There is no transaction in SAPgui in which to write your Java code. SAPgui accesses the ABAP stack, not the java stack. In order to write java code, you need the IDE, in this case NetWeaver Developer Studio(NWDS) or NetWeaver CE(Composition Environment). This are eclipse based IDEs which SAP has added plug-ins, which means that you develop locally instead of remotely(like on the ABAP stack). You can then deploy your java apps to your NetWeaver java stack.
