Hi ,

There are various ways of starting the splitscreen editor:

By entering transaction code SE39

From the Modification Assistant

From the ABAP Editor, if the clipboard is not empty.

Special Splitscreen Editor Functions

The Splitscreen Editor supports the special functions listed below. Some of these functions can only be activated for certain calls (see also Starting the Splitscreen Editor).

Compare

Compares the two sets of source code. The comparison is no longer line-based (as in previous versions of the splitscreen editor). Instead it is statement-based. To call this function click on the icon .

You can suppress comment lines and indentations using the Settings function.

Differences in the source text are highlighted. Where lines have been inserted, the system inserts the same number of $$ lines at the corresponding position. In compare mode, the system scrolls both windows when you use the arrow keys. To scroll asynchronously, use the scrollbars and page up / page down keys.

SE 39 Split screen editor

This displays in detail all the corrections to the source text that are contained in an object. If necessary, you can adjust the corrections to your modifications here.

Features

The split-screen editor is divided into two areas:

· On the left-hand side you see the state of the source code after the changes have been implemented. The changes are identified by way of symbols displayed to the left of the source text lines:

Context lines. These are unchanged lines that the system uses to find a position where changes are to be performed.

Inserted lines

Deleted lines

Unchanged lines

Comments describing the interface of a function module.

You can edit the source code that you see on the left-hand side.

· On the right-hand side you see deleted program parts and corrections that the Note Assistant is unable to implement automatically. These are displayed as context, delete, and insert blocks using symbols.

On the left-hand side you can do the following:

· Edit manually

· Select and cut, or copy and paste blocks

To select a block marked with a corresponding symbol, position the cursor on the header and choose Select.

You can also select any lines. To do so, position the cursor on the first line of the block that you want to select and choose Select. Then position the cursor on the last line and choose Select again.

· By choosing Undo changes, you can undo step-by-step all changes that you have made in the splitscreen editor.

· By choosing Redo, you can restore any changes that you have previously undone.

· You can use the arrow keys to go to the next/previous change by using the arrow keys

· By choosing Concatenate, you can link two lines together.

The Undo/Redo button appears in the middle of the editor if you insert or delete a block. You can use this button to undo or redo changes one at a time. Individual delete and insert blocks are substituted.

Notes

Using Transaction SE39

You can display or change any source code. You can display, change, compare, and save both code extracts in the splitscreen editor. The extracts may either both be in the same system, or one of them may be in a remote system (only for programs). You cannot change or save program source code that you are displaying remotely. Nor can you navigate in the remote system.

From the Modification Assistant

The Splitscreen Editor has an editing window on the left, and a display window on the right. The old SAP source code appears in the display window. Modified lines of code are flagged in the editor. You cannot switch the right-hand window to change mode. The new SAP source code appears in the editing window. It is displayed in modification mode. The source code normally cannot be edited. You can only use the Delete, Insert and Replace edit functions. The system compares the two versions and marks the differences on both sides. There is also a function that allows you to select a single block in the display window. You can then copy this to the corresponding position in the editing window. It is also possible to copy source text code into the editing window using the Select, Copy to buffer, and Insert buffer functions.

From the ABAP Editor

If there is data on the clipboard during an ABAP Editor session, you can use the splitscreen editor to compare the two versions. The system starts the editor in compare mode. You can change the database version. You cannot change the version that was stored temporarily.
