SAPGUI 7.40 | Syntax highlighting

[michael_fallenbchel]

Hi experts,

just installed the new GUI, now my ABAP editor looks like this:

Why the 'K' is red now? Seems like there's an issue with my coding, but what's wrong?

Thanks

Michael

Hi Michael,

I'm not yet on 7.40, also I don't know if KNTTP is defined other than CHAR1. Also the use of a text constant 'K' may be not appreciated. Try to define CONSTANTS cg_knttp_k TYPE EBAN-KNTTP VALUE 'K' or use pragma ## no_text.

Hi Clemens,

thanks for your update.

Maybe this is a solution for this, but my whole editor looks like this (the pic was only an example):

Is there something new I missed? I'm on 731...

Thanks

Hello,

I have the same Problem.

The editor colors lots of the source code in red.

And the bad thing is that after some red code, the code completion (strg+space) does not work anymore for this ABAP statement.

In my eyes this is a bug in the new SAP gui.

Best regards, Tino

Hello,

commenting out the syntactical error text type in the abap_specs.xml seems to be a workaround.

The file is located in %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Roaming\SAP\SAP GUI\ABAP Editor\

Hello Maxim,

For me that fixes the display of "syntax errors".

But the code completion still does not work.
