Dear All,

Is there an SAP / ABAP tool that allows us to produce a technical document from the code in the ABAP.  I can recall Java has this technique!!

Hi Waza,

before release 6.0, I have used the CTRL + MAJ + F5  (in SE38 when you display the code) and printed it.

But not, this list is an ALV Tree, so not usefull to print it

Maybe the old function is hide somewhere.

It's what you expted ?  to list the FORM, Tables used, Variable Global, ... ?

regards

fred

Thanks for the reply and effort.  There are lots of program with "no" details and we need to begin writing the technical specifications, so you can imagine the ABAPers are not too happy about it.

For example if we use a standard FM then can we have the parameters produced in say a document / xml / html.  The same is for a loop construct where the logic would be written to "loop through Z_BKPF and find the document type = "ZP".

I could imagine the feeling of your developper team.

I have found the method I used.

Go in SE38, specify a program name, and press the print button.

SAP will ask you, what you would like to print, select all but not the source code.

The resultat will looks like that :

You mean a thing like JavaDoc for ABAP.

Development in progress, it's announced for 7.5 (AFAIR). Ask SCN for ABAP Doc.

This is only the syntax, which can be parsed by a tool, which creates the Technical Documentation.
