Deactivate description autofill in method parameters / class attributes

ralf_wenzel_heuristika — Tue, 28 Mar 2017 09:03:42 GMT

Hi,

by creating a method parameter or attribute of a class, the description of the datatype is filled automatically.

I want to de-activate this feature, a developer has to type a context sensitive description by himself (which has to be more specified than the datatype's description).

But I don't want to compare all descriptions by myself - an empty field is more obvious, showing "missing".

Is there any way to deactivate the autofill of descriptions from datatype's description?

Use ADT, and your problem is gone 😉

That is not my decision.... 😞 No way in SE80 & Co?

PS: I *love* the SAPscript based documentation tools of SE80 - F9 to write a translatable documentation for a method with a link to classes' documentation with parameters documentation with a link to the data element's documentation, etc. What I should use for ADT based developments?

ABAP Doc

translateble!

ABAP Doc allows documentation, but not a german documentation for german developers and an italian documentation for italian developers of the same development object. And there is no way to set a link in a method documentation to a class documentation or data element documentation in DDIC.

Means: As a result of switching to ADT, there is no tool for translatable documentation at all?

Well, let's say up to now there is no tool for editing translatable documentation integrated natively into ADT.

For "old" repository objects you can fall back to SAP GUI and SAPScript and of course mess it up by adding additionally untranslatable ABAP Doc to the respective ABAP source code.

For "new" repository objects as CDS objects there is no direct connection to documentation at all. Up to now.

There are plans at least, to offer a new modern way of creating translatable documentation for repository objects in ADT in the future. XML-Strings in DITA format, stored at the Backend. A dream. Maybe a little late.
