Hi,

ABAP is one of the 4th generation query language where you can create reports, creating Function modules.etcfor certain business scenarios. Where as Java is strictly an Object oriented programming language.Eg: you can see your yahoo mail or any other site, most of them are created using JSP' or some other tools. these are all Java based.

Both of them are programming languages.Despite the fact that both are platform independent, ABAP is a query based language and the other is a pure object oriented language.

ABAP is the core for SAP as it's R/3 system are developed using this ABAP language.

SAP decided to move ahead in this world and included ITS into it's product.

Slowly the realised the importance of going web-based, and hence decided to move in the steps of web services so that all the transaction based interactions can move in the form of web services being deployed.

Then they came up with a product called NetWeaver which can have both the JAVA stack and the ABAP stack.

SAP has combined the advantages of both ABAP and JAVA to come up with a new product called Netweaver
