Obsolete Disabling of the Unicode Check
When a program is created, the ABAP language version Standard ABAP (Unicode) with enabled Unicode checks is configured by default.
- Programs with the language version Standard ABAP (Unicode) work in both Unicode systems and non-Unicode systems.
- Programs with the obsolete language version Non-Unicode ABAP only work in non-Unicode systems.
In the current AS ABAP release, only Unicode systems are supported. Programs with the language version Non-Unicode ABAP can no longer be executed in the current release. The ABAP language version cannot be set back to Non-Unicode ABAP. Higher ABAP language versions are possible because they cover the Unicode checks.
