For Release 4.6A, the ABAP Debugger has been enhanced to include the following functions:


1. String processing


2. Enhancements in ABAP Objects


3. Other features

Other versions: 7.31 | 7.40 | 7.54

Modification 1

String Processing

The display of the data types string and xstring can now be scrolled. You can position the cursor on the string by double-clicking it. Also, you can declare strings as watchpoints.

Modification 2

Enhancements in ABAP Objects

Static attributes and handlers of static events can now be displayed without specifying an instance. You can also find all references to a specific object. The same is valid for data references.

Modification 3

Other Features

The 'System Debugging' setting is also saved when you save breakpoints. A new pushbutton called 'Last Short Dump' is now available, which you can use to display the last runtime error generated. Alternatively, you can use transaction 'last_shortdump'.
