Code Completion like on Teched 08

Former Member

Hi!

On SAP Teched 08 in Berlin I saw a new kind of auto code completion for the new ABAP Editor.

I remember that in a demo there was a object reference and with ctrl+space a list with all possible methods was displayed.

Does anyone know from which patch this function is supported and how to activate it?

regards,

Christian

Hi,

I have the same question. Development without these modern IDE features (I'm using Visual studio 2008 sometimes) is nightmare. I need to show all methods for instance with description etc....

Many thanks for any answer!

The system which i work on is an ECC 5.0, if i type a standard keyword code autocompleteion works, even ctrl+space works,

but code completion doesn't work for defined variables and types. but it works for one of my collegues working on same server, having the same frontend version, he doesn't know how it works for him. and I want to activate the same for me.

Any ideas on this ?????

Hi, Kartik

Follow the Steps Bellow Hope you will be able to Enable this one

=> Open New Editor

=> In the Bottom Right Corner there is Small Button for Options

=> After Click on this Button you will display a Dialog Box with Heading Options

=> in the List Left on this box there is a Label Code Completion

=> Right side in there is a Check Box with text Suggest Non-Kewords from Text

=> Check this Check Box and Click Ok

Hope this way it will start showing, Please Reply if any problem in searching the option

Hi,

I have cheched all options in Code completion settings in New ABAP editor.

In web dynpro ABAP aplication I type "wd_this" or "wd_this->" and nothing appears...so I press ctrl + space and same reason.....

Editor should show me all methods and attributes of wd_this object with description as is common in all IDE(eclipse, ms visual studio, netbeans, kdevelop.....) since 1995.

Many thanks for any answer!
