Comparing ABAP Code

Former Member — Thu, 03 Nov 2005 17:06:23 GMT

We made a copy of an SAP Print program a few years back and we are now at a spot where we need to do a major re-write and we are trying to decide if we should just continue on with our copy or if we should start with a fresh copy. We copied RQCAAP00 in version 2.1h to our own ZQCAAP00 copy. We are now on version ECC 5.0. I have 2 questions.

1) Is there any way I can find out what the differences are in the ABAP program RQCAAP00 between version 2.1h and ECC 5.0 (we don't have the 2.1h environment at all anymore)

2) Is there any way I can compare the current RQCAAP00 ABAP and our copy ZQCAAP00?

thx for your help.

Hi,

you can compare two programs using splitscreen editor transaction SE39.

1) Not if you don't have the RQCAAP00 from your 2.1h system.

2) Yes, You can do a split screen in SE38. You will have to do it line by line. In SE38, click Utilites, More Utilites, Splitscreen editor. You can compare side by side.

I think that you could write a program which will compare the lines for you. Just use the READ REPORT statement to bring the source in, then compare each line.

Hi Ian;

To answer #2, you can use transation SE39 to show the two programs side-by-side and check for differences.

You may be out of luck on #1, unless you can find someone to send you the code.

Cheers,

John

Looks like you can compare in the split screen editor. Check it out.
