Code Completion not working

Former Member — Mon, 14 Jan 2013 07:08:39 GMT

Hi ,

When i am trying to use code completion tool in Eclipse, its not working properly. When i click ctrl + space , i see list of methods or function module(as well as i can see signatures). But , when i press shift+enter , as mentioned in document , i just get the function module name or method name in my program. The code completiong doesnt get all the parameters.

How do i resolve this issue.

Thanks

Hi Madhumati,

we need some details to reproduce the issue.

Which version of Eclipse do you use?

For which function module did you try to get the signature to be inserted (is it local, is it a name space, ...)?

Hi Felix,

I am using Eclipse Indigo. SAP GUI is 730.

I have created a class with 2-3 methods as local object . I have tried to use auto completion for these methods , which didnot work.

Then i tried to call 'BAPI_SALES_ORDER_CREATE' using code completion , which didnt work either.

When i press shift+enter , the pattern(importing/exporting parameters) doesnt get copied.

Thanks

Hi Madhumati,

I'm having exactly the same issues as you describe. I seem to have just found a workaround that works sometimes:

When calling the code completion from the class and selecting the method, Shift + Enter inserts the method name but not the signature.

However if you immediately call code completion again, and hit Shift + Enter, it (sometimes) inserts the signature propperly.

Regards,

Gerald

P.S. @Felix: I'm also running GUI 730, but Eclipse 4.2 (Juno)

Hi Madhumati,

it would be great if you could give us some more information which should help us troubleshoot the problem.

1) Please open the "ABAP communication log" view via menu "Window->show view". Switch on the log by clicking on the green play button. The log shows you the requests which the client fires against the backend. When the code insertion works the log has the following entries.

POST /sap/bc/adt/abapsource/codecompletion/insertion?uri=XXXXXXX

POST /sap/bc/adt/abapsource/codecompletion/elementinfo?uri=XXXXXXX

POST /sap/bc/adt/abapsource/codecompletion/proposal?uri=XXXXXXXX

Please reproduce the bug and post your log entries here. Does the client send the "insertion" request?

2) Please open the "Error Log" view via menu "Window->show view". After executing the broken functionality see if new entries did appear in the error log.

3) Since the code completion gets executed in a background thread there might be errors happening in the backend which you are not aware of. Please check whether the bug produces shortdumps in the backend via transaction st22.

regards,

Thomas

Hi Thomas,

An example for you guys:

This was produced with the following code, and then selecting the ‘describe_by_data’ method:

DATA: lo_tab_descr TYPE REF TO cl_abap_tabledescr.

lo_tab_descr ?= cl_abap_tabledescr=><#code completion called here#>

After completion is called with ‘Shift + Enter’ only the method name is inserted without the signature:

lo_tab_descr ?= cl_abap_tabledescr=>describe_by_data

Communication log shows:

POST /sap/bc/adt/repository/nodepath?uri=%2Fsap%2Fbc%2…

POST /sap/bc/adt/abapsource/codecompletion/proposal?uri=%2Fsap…

POST /sap/bc/adt/abapsource/codecompletion/elementinfo?uri=%2Fsa…

POST /sap/bc/adt/abapsource/codecompletion/elementinfo?uri=%2Fsap%2Fbc%2…

The Error log is empty

Hope this helps and keep up the great work

Gerald

Hi Gerald,

Thanks for all information you sent: it seems that Eclipse sends no request to the ABAP system to do the insertion with the signature.

One short question: How do you select the entry which you want to insert in your coding? Do you select it using the mouse or using the keys UP/DOWN? There is a known issue when you select the entry using the mouse.

Hi Michael,

I've indeed been using the mouse to select. Will use the keys in future and see if this avoids the issue.

Regards,

Gerald

Hi Fabio,

the log you sent seems not to be related to code completion but occurrence marker. Is your function module (or even better the whole function group) syntactically correct, in which you would like use the functionality?

The log states, that the statement FUNCTION is missing somewhere:

Anweisung FUNCTION fehlt

Best regards,

Michael

Hi Michael,

It seems like there was/is a problem with the function itself (ENQUEUE_EMMCHA). Everything on our side should be correct and seems to work now.

Regards,

Fabio

Hi All.,

this is a just info for Eclipse users,

if you want to insert the signature on completion and it does not wok, just active the box in eclipse.
