Code Completion like on Teched 08

Former Member — Wed, 19 Nov 2008 06:29:21 GMT

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,

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!
