Display Object List in Eclipse

Former Member — Mon, 06 Jun 2016 20:24:29 GMT

Hello Experts,

is there a feature similar to the SE80 function Display Object List available in Eclipse?

I always liked this feature in SE80 since it would show you all elements in your current development object (fields, screens, GUI status). And most importantly, you had the possibility to easily navigate to the parent objects (function groups/packages). This is very helpful to see which other objects are related to your current dev object.

I really like Eclipse so far, but this is something I still miss.

Thanks a lot

Rainer

I think the outline view comes close to your needs (ABAP Development Tools Tutorials - Working with Outline View).

But especially old GUI techniques, like dynpro are not supported in the Eclipse environment, thus I am afraid that not all your desired objects are shown there.

Hope it helps,

Hi Rainer,

maybe Link with Editor will be your new friend.

Enable it via the button with the two yellow arrows in the project explorer view.

Regards,

Thomas

Thanks Andreas, Thomas.

The Link with Editor function is exactly what I was looking for!
