Other versions: 7.31 | 7.40 | 7.54

Modification 1

Introduction of Pragmas

As of Release 7.0, EhP2, pragmas can be used to hide syntax check warnings from the ABAP Compiler and other check tools.

Modification 2

Conversion of pseudo-comments

The pseudo-comments "#EC ..., which until now could be used to hide warnings from the extended program check, can and should be replaced by the ##... pragmas. In a program in which a warning from the extended program check is hidden by a pragma, the SET EXTENDED CHECK statement must not be used anymore and leads to a warning that cannot be hidden.
