Automatic brackets in new editor

Hi all,
I really love the 'automatic brackets' feature of the new ABAP editor. Some years ago, it worked for () [] {} and <>. Then with a new version of SAP GUI, <> did not work any longer.
After lots of search, we found the  <OpenClose> tags in some XML files in SapGui program directory in folder ab4data. We completed some of them with the missing &lt;&gt; - you can not use a < character, but must use xml alias & lt ;.
Well I found those files with openclose tags:
ABAP4_SPEC.XML  <OpenClose>()[]''``</OpenClose>
ABAP_SPEC.XML   <OpenClose>()[]''``||{}</OpenClose>
ACONT_SPEC.XML  <OpenClose>()[]&lt;&gt;''``</OpenClose>
BSP_SPEC.XML    <OpenClose>()[]&lt;&gt;''</OpenClose>
CC_SPEC.XML     <OpenClose>()[]{}&lt;&gt;''``</OpenClose>
COVAN_SPEC.XML  <OpenClose>()[]&lt;&gt;''``</OpenClose>
ECATT_SPEC.XML  <OpenClose>()[]&lt;&gt;''``</OpenClose>
GML_SPEC.XML    <OpenClose>()[]{}''""</OpenClose>
SFOTL_SPEC.XML  <OpenClose>()[]&lt;&gt;''``</OpenClose>
TXT_SPEC.XML    <OpenClose>()[]{}&lt;&gt;''</OpenClose>
XML_SPEC.XML    <OpenClose>()[]''&lt;&gt;</OpenClose>
Well, I'd like to know what  all those files are good for and why they are not stored in a user directory. Changing a computer, I have to do all corrections again.

Clemens

  • New editor: no auto-     angle bracket

    Hi all,
    after installing SAPGUI 710 patch level 10 the auto-completion for brackets only works for square brackets [] and normal brackets () but not any longer for angle brackets <>.
    I already modified the xml scheme at C:\Programme\SAP\FrontEnd\SAPgui\ab4_data\xml_spec.xml
    Parameter OpenClose is shown as ()[]''<>.
    But it still does not work.
    How to resolve?
    TIA,
    regards,
    Clemens

    Sorry, I marked this answered yesterday:
    With the new 700 SAPGUI and editor rollout they corrected one big shortcoming of the new editor: Before the user-specific settings were stored with thje local SAPGUI installation, now they are stored in the windows user settings directory.
    In my case (german windows), I modified file abap4_spec.xml
    in directory
    C:\Dokumente und Einstellungen\re31472\ab4_data
    Note: You may find the same file in
    C:\Dokumente und Einstellungen\re31472\SapWorkDir\ab4_data
    Here I did not apply the changes described in my preceding comment(s).

    P.S.: It is a good strategy to wait for a stable release and accept humiliation of missing features. Still it may be a valid strategy to find out how to use new features while it is anything but stable.

  • Regular Expressions in the new editor

    Hi,
    we just ubgraded to SAP GUI 6.40 and ERP 2005, when i hit ctrl-h the search and replace dialog is popping up in the new editor. But the checkbox "regular expression" is greyed out and cant be activated. Why?

    Hi, I can only confirm that. The help indicates that it should work, but on the screencaps, it's grayed out too.
    Besides that,
    Open completion automatically after is not implemented yet (is mentioned in the help).
    There are also problems with the incremental search backwards. It works only once.

  • Creating automatic header in abap editor

    Hi
    I want to create an automatic header in abap editor as soon as program is created instead using patterns.
    for e.g. when i create a new report below template comes, i want to replace with my custom header template.
    *& Report  ZXXX
    REPORT  ZXXX.
    Any clues,
    Regards
    Swatantra

    you need to modify table TSE05 - for APP_OBJ = ADDM and keyword = REPORT
    with your own pattern.
    you can also use FM RS_MODIFY_TSE05 for that.

  • I'm using Firefox 3.6.8 on a MacBook Pro. Is there any way to have downloads open automatically in a new tab once the download is complete? Thanks in advance!

    I believe when I first got my MacBook, that when I was in Firefox and downloaded a pdf, it opened automatically in a new Firefox tab. At some point, I think a window with the option to NOT do this appeared and I clicked the wrong option, i.e. to NOT have a downloaded pdf open up automatically in a new tab.
    I now cannot figure out how to reverse this. I have called Apple support and they think it's a Firefox setting.

    Set a preference to have searches from the Search Bar (upper right) automatically open all searches in a new tab
    #type '''about:config''' in the URL/Location/Address bar and press the Enter key
    #if you see a warning, accept it (promise to be careful)
    #Filter = '''browser.search.openintab'''
    #in the lower panel, double click the item (or right-click and choose "Toggle") to change the value to "true"
    #close the about:config tab and test

    About Google toolbar............
    Google decided that they will no longer produce the Google Toolbar for Firefox 5 and newer version. It is best to move on to other alternatives than to try any "hacks" to the toolbar that may or may not perform in the future. Future versions of Google toolbar will only work with IE7-9. Google Toolbar is not available on any other browser, even Google's own browser.

  • Automate Creation of new items in EBS

    Hey everyone -
    Just a question ,
    we want to automate creation of new items in our system.
    Our view is something like -
    1. user GUI to request a new item, according to predefined templates.
    2. Users fill a few fields of information.
    3. Item manager gets notified and approves item is needed.
    4. Automation to run batch and create everything relevant. (org assignment, item KFF, category assignments, BOMs etc). As much automation as possible, we can map template behaviour, variety is small.
    I was wondering if there is any product supporting such behaviour.
    I looked into Oracle's APC, and it seems like it doesnt do enough. Besides as far as I noticed it relies mostly on Item Catalog attributes which we don't. Also Im not sure if this product is "alive" coz oracle bought AGILE for PLM.
    Does anyone know of a product that supports creation of new items and is flexible to fit our needs?
    We want to make sure we're not missing something before we develop custom code for that.
    Thanks,
    Aaron

    Hi,
    This is prom PIM to Oracle
    I have done an interface which creates an item in master and child .Which assighns category set on iots level controls .It inserts item into all active subinventories.
    It notifies the end user with email any item already exits and error .
    Regarding templates.
    it assigs compatible templates at master and org leve.These are predefined and are not validated in program

  • Insert email link missing in new editor??

    The new editor it seems to be missing inserting a email link.. If I highlight text in the editor and click the insert link button in the toolbar, there is no option for inserting a email address as a link like in the old editor - unless I am missing something? Telling my clients that they have to insert mailto:[email protected] in the external link field seems pretty silly and backward.
    Any plans to add this BASIC functionality back into the BC Editor?

    Should not be too hard to add under external link in the link manager a email one.
    This is all beta Alexander and BC know they got more things and bug fixes to add to it.

  • Does ipod nano automatically pick up new purchases when I plug it in to the computer?

    When I bring new music into my itunes library the song is checked.  will the nano automatically pick up new purchases when I plug it in again?  Or do I have to start over?  I hit sync again but not sure whether I have to do that every time I charge it.

    Depends on how you have your iPod set up to Sync.  For example if your iPod is configured to sync only checked songs and videos, make sure each new track you add to iTunes has a tick mark next to it.  The next time you sync your iPod (assuming it set up to automatically sync), the new tracks will be added.

  • How to activate New Editor for XSLT Transformations?

    Hello Everyone!
    I am currentlyworking on some Simple Transformations (Txn STRANS). As I am very happy with the New Frontend Editor, I would like to use the new Editor for editing Simple Transformations, like I do, when editing usual ABAP Code.
    Where can I activate the New Editor fpr XSLT Programs? I have already set the Flag to use the new editor when editing ABAP Code, but this Flag unfortunately has to influence on the editor used for XSLT programs... ;-(

    Firefox doesn't install new versions of plugins, but Flash may update itself automatically.<br />
    You are still one version behind on Flash, current is Flash 10.1 r85<br />
    If the Flash player didn't update properly then you need to download the full version and run the installer as Administrator (right-click: Run as ...)

  • New Editor bug

    The new editor has a bug. When you add 'required' (a legal HTML5 attribute) to an input element it deletes it. You have to add required="required" to make it stick. This is XHTML not HTML5.
    i.e.
    <input type="text" name="myTextbox" required>
    gets rewritten to
    <input type="text" name="myTextbox" >
    on save.

    Yeah, sorry. Bad coding on my part, but I think it's something that will catch people out as BC supplies its form inputs with XHTML markup,
    i.e. <input type=text" /> rather than <input type="text">
    That's what caused it to break in the first place, not a bug

  • I work on two screens. With the new updates, my computer will not automatically open a new window on the second screen.

    I work on two screens. With the new updates we cannot automatically open a new window on the second screen, but have to move them over manually. Not a huge problem, but because of the nature of the work, it gets tedious.

    Hi Annowriter,
    Thank you for your question, I understand that it is annoying to have to move a new window to the second screen. Since it opens in the active screen this may have been a stored preference, however it is not the default.
    There is an add on called [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/monitor-master/ Monitor Master] that customizes settings like this. Check it out.
