ABAP keyword documentation for release 7.0
For release 7.0, the ABAP keyword documentation has been extended as follows:
1 Full text search 2 Subject search 3 Diagrams 4 Language 5 List of ABAP words 6 Terminology changes for narrowing and widening casts 7 Adjustment of font size
ABAP_MODIFICATION_1 Full text search
Considerable improvements have been made to the performance of the full text search in the ABAP keyword documentation. The locations found by the full text search are now marked in the display. As before, the full text search can be called from the display window of the documentation. It is also available on the initial screens for the documentation (ABAP Editor, transaction ABAPHELP) as an alternative to the index search.
ABAP_MODIFICATION_2 Subject search
The ABAP keyword documentation has been extended by the addition of an alphabetical subject directory. The index search now evaluates this directory in addition to the ABAP index and ABAP glossary.
ABAP_MODIFICATION_3 Diagrams
Through access to the MIME repository, diagrams can now be displayed in the ABAP keyword documentation.
For example: General memory organization .
ABAP_MODIFICATION_4 Language
It is now possible to select the language in which the documentation is displayed on the initial screen of the transaction ABAPHELP. The user can choose between the logon language, English, and German. The logon language is the standard setting. When the ABAP keyword documentation is called from the ABAP Editor, the logon language is always used.
ABAP_MODIFICATION_5 List of ABAP words
The document ABAP wordscontains a list of all names reserved in ABAP, except for those that consist of special characters. From this list, the user can navigate directly to the usage locations.
ABAP_MODIFICATION_6 Terminology change for narrowing and widening casts
The use of the terms narrowing cast and widening cast, which refers to the view that a reference variable offers to an object, has been adjusted to the general language usage from the view of the value set that can include a variable. Now the unambiguous terms Up Cast and Down Cast are in general use.
ABAP_MODIFICATION_7 Adjustment of font size
If the font size is changed when adjusting the locallayout in the SAP GUI, this also takes effect for the display of the ABAP keyword documentation. Previously, only changes in color affected the ABAP keyword documentation. Within a user session, the GUI font size dependency can be deactivated by setting the standard font size.
