Save ABAP development history - Recommendations?

Hi,
We are analyzing the best way to save our ABAP development history. We
need SAP's comments on the following possible solution for our needs.
The possible scenario is as follows. The complete development history
is situated in our project development system. To ensure its (dev. history) future
existence we would like to export it and import it into our production
system, plus set the STMS-parameter VERS_AT_IMP to ALWAYS.
In this way we will save the dev. history from day zero and create a
version master on the production system for the future. Future system
copies will contain the dev. history but a version change will only
occur when you set a program into production.
This way we will safely contain a version master.
Questions:
1. Is the above scenario feasible?
2. What consequences mite we encounter when importing the dev. history
into the productions system?
Regards
Erik Elvhage

For me it is still only 4 pages (I'm on 25 per page) in "Community Discussions". However in the sub forums e.g. "Suggestions and Comments" I can browse to older pages, as opposed to my previous statement.
It's not really a problem from my point of view, as the response time seems to be slightly better.

Missing history in ABAP Development forum

When I look at the main page of the ABAP Development forum, I only see two pages of history. When I look at a sub-forum, I see lots of pages. Is it just me? (I have set my display to 50 items per page.)
Just noticed - same behavior here in Community Discussions.

Need review for Enhancing the quality of ABAP development book

Hi,
I'm looking for advance abap book and notice there is Enhancing the quality of ABAP development book that seems like quite interesting.
Anyone can give small review for this book and whether this book still up to date with current ABAP language? Thanks.

Hi Amit,
Thanks for the response.
I'm actually looking for advance ABAP book that not only contains how to create ABAP program but how to create ABAP program.
From the table of content, it seems like the "Enhancing the quality of ABAP development" is clearly describe how to write good ABAP program and still balance in term of giving suggestion for ABAP as procedural language and ABAP Object. The thing is, I don't know whether there is some content in the book that already obsolete. For instance, is there any statement in that book that recommended but now already not recommended anymore? If all the statement is still valid as of now, I think this book is still good to read.
I do already have ABAP objects book from Horst Keller, but I will not enforce ABAP developers in my current organization to be written in full OOP. At least not in 1-2 years. If the procedural ABAP still working properly and high performing, I don't see any reason why I should force my team to switch totally to pure ABAP object that definitely will take more time to learn and develop, but anyway, that's different subject from this thread.

How To Recover Lost Develop History Settings?

can anyone tell me how I can recover lost develop history?
I edited some files quite a few days ago. Today I launched LR and it did a backup, then when it opened the images were visible but with the ? and missing file message, because i had moved the files from the main folder into sub folders using Bridge. So I did a Sync on the main folder to bring back all the files....it relocated the files as per the new structure, when I realised all the develop history had gone. I think thats because it removed the missing files and imported the files again as new.
So I shut down, moved all the files back, and opened the backup file. The backup was created AFTER I made the develop edits. The images were back in orioginal location, but again no develop history, all files back to their original import. There are no issues with other files, some I worked on that day but did not move are fine.
I have LR backup to a external HD drive. The previews were in the default Username/Pictures folder, but now its rebuilding previews in the same folder as the backup on the external drive, and its taking ages!
Im puzzled why its doing this and why the dev settings have gone, I would have thought they would be in the backup catalog? As I moved the files back and opened the backup should they not be there? I dont have the save xmp sidecar enabled either.
Could it be that the previuos previews are on my hard drive, and now LR is rebuilding previews in the same folder as the backup on my external HD?
Phil

I don't have all the answers, but by now you've learned the hard way to make changes in LR if you're moving files about. As to Previews: they'll get rebuilt in the same folder as the .lrcat if none is there. If you have a catalog on the external, and launched from it, it's very likely it is building a Previews folder. I set mine to rebuild at a very small size in such a case. Or just have it build for those folders you need to check.
Now, if the external has the edits/history you want, run Export as Catalog on those photos you need to replace, then delete them from the internal, and run Import from Catalog.
Good luck!

Debugging is not working in R/3 from WebDynpro-ABAP developed webpage input

Dear Friends,
We are facing a serious problem for debugging. Expecting valuable input for the same.
Debugging is not working in R/3 from WebDynpro-ABAP developed webpage input in Production Server.
The debugging (for WebDynpro-ABAP application) is working in Dev. Server for
1st ] Within R/3
Ex. debug for bapi within R/3. i.e. value enter as input in R/3 only.
2nd ] From webpage to R/3
Ex. Some input given on the internet web page developed through WebDynpro and external breakpoint set in R/3 it works. It directs to R/3 code through debugging.
In Prod. Server the 1st case above is working but the 2nd case is not working.
In Prod. Server the WebDynpro developed applications are running successfully through internet explorer webpage inputs. So running the application is not a problem in prod. Server but debugging of the same is the problem.
The setting which are done in Prod. server are,
1] RZ10 in parameters are set for port and host name.
2.1] In SMICM check for ICM.
2.2] Host file updated in Windows-System 32.
3] In SICF following services are active,

How can I connect with SAP NetWeaver 7.01 SR1 SP3 ABAP Developer Edition

Hello together,
I downloaded and installed the SAP NetWeaver 7.01 SR1 SP3 ABAP Developer Edition on a virtual client.
I toke a long period to finish the installation.
Now some questions to use this system in the right way:
1.) How can I get a "developer license" which do not expire? Because the link http://www.sap.com/minisap seems to be not ok.
2.) How can I connect via network with the sap system? the application server is running on a vm client with a static ip i.e. 192.168.1.5. And my laptop gets a ip in the same range. I have installed the gui on my laptop and tried to connect with the system. But it does not work! I used as application server the ip of the virtual machine. I use the gui witch is installed on the same host like the application it works (with localhost as application server adress)
3.) Where can I download the newest version of the SAP Gui? I do not have a service marktplace account? Is it possible?
4.) I read in the documentation that it should be possible to reach the sap system also with web dynpro: http://localhost:8000/sap/bc/gui/sap/its/webgui?sap-client=000
But it does not work. I got an error message: Service cannot be reached
Note
The termination occurred in system NSP with error code 403 and for the reason Forbidden.
The selected virtual host was 0 .

Christian

I fixed in the meantime the second problem. It was a problem with my local firewall. But the other three points are still open.
Thank in advance for your help

When importing from an old Lightroom 2 catalog into Lightroom 4 (also from Windows to Mac) I seem to have lost all the development history of my photos. Is there any way to retain that?

I finally managed to get through the process of moving files and catalog from Lightroom 2.7 on a PC to Lightroom 4 on my Mac. I think I did it all correctly and all my file and previews and some tagging seems to be there. Two things are lost
1 - Most importantly, the development history on my files. I can see the edited versions in the previews, but as soon as I click on it, I can see that I lose all the changes I had made before. When I look at Development history, it just says "Imported on...." I'd love to get this back. That is a ton of processing work just lost because I switched computers.
2 - The collection names seem to have come over, but they are all empty. This is also a lot of work lost, though not as important as #1
Is there any recourse?

Develop history in Lightroom mobile?

Trying out the LR CC syncing. From desktop, I synced a collection and one photo (RAW) in it appeared correctly in my phone app. Then I made some develop edits on my phone and those changes appeared correctly in my desktop. However, when viewing the photo in the Develop module, all I see under History is "From Lr mobile" for the changes I made on my phone.
How do I see the develop history changes I made on my phone on my desktop? And vice versa? Is this even possible?

History is not synced across apps or embedded in metadata, hence none showing on your desktop.

Abap development possible in B1 version

Dear Team
I wanted to find out whether SAP B1 version will allow us to do Abap development ?
If yes , any configuration to be carried out
Plz reply soonest
Regards
Chelian.M
FICO Consultant

Hi, That is not possible. The Application Middleware in R/3 or ECC or SAP Suite requires ABAP programming to interface with BASIS. There is no such architecture in SAP Business One - SAP B1 requires programming of UI, DI and Java DI interfaces which is done through VB, .net, C# or Java DI Webservices Interface programming. So there is no ABAP in SAP B1.

ABAP Development certification

Hi all;
I am certified as a support consultant for incident management for SAP business all in one, but I am thinking of having a career in ABAP Development, because I am into programming more.
I have good basics in ABAP but I wanted to know how long it would take me to be an associate developer in ABAP, and what material I need to cover in order to make sure that I pass the exam with the code: C_TAW12_70
Any advice will be great
~ Amal

Hi,
See this link for all the areas you need to cover:
http://www.sap.com/services/education/certification/certificationtest.epx?context=[[C_TAW12_70|G]]|
You would have to do all of these courses, and/or gain equivalent experience. That might take 2-3 years.
The test itself is not that hard, so you might still get through after somewhat less experience. It is a multiple choice exam.
cheers & good luck!
Paul

ABAP development in a non-unicode system

Does anyone have a "list of abap development considerations" when developing ABAP in a 4.6C system to also be sensitive to an upcoming UNICODE conversion project, that is, What do I need to be sensitive to concerning unicode when developing in a non-unicode 4.6C system to make the upgrade to unicode of these programs easier .

You can check the documents available at market place.
service.sap.com/unicode under section
Sap netweaver-> Sap Netweaver in Detail -> Application Platform -> Unicode -> ABAP and Unicode Library.
There is one document which is specifically related to 4.6c (Vorbereitung von ABAP Programmen für Unicode in 4.6C/D) but its in German.
You can go through the other documents and see whichever is applicable for 4.6c

ABAP Development Video legal question

Dear Community,
We would like to create something like a video tutorial for ABAP development for the beginner level based on the flight data model. We might simply put it on our websites unrestriced area, membership area or we might sell this as a product.
The system we are using for this beginner level development activity is the Netweaver Trial version, this is more then enough for this purpose.
Here comes the question; In the license agreement of the Netweaver ABAP Trial version there is this sentence:
"The SOFTWARE PRODUCT is "NOT FOR PRODUCTION USE". You may not demonstrate, test, examine, evaluate or otherwise use the Software Product in a live operating environment or with data that has not been sufficiently backed up. "
I do not fully understand this sentence. Would our activity considered as "production usage" and we might get legal troubles, or a commercial video tutorial is ok?
If we have a problem here, what could be the workaround? Subscription for a system hosted by SAP or maybe subsciption for a cheaper hosting like eg. www.michaelmanagement.com ?
I would really appreciate your oppinion.
Thanks,
Jozep

What about screenshots of all the source code? Or a video of it at runtime?

ABAP Development and "End User License"

Hi all,
I'm happy to join to SDN!!!
I newbe in the forum, and therefore I don't know if I post in the right section.
I'm a Netweaver Architect and ABAP Developer.
In the past I worked as java developer, and with other programming languages.
I have a doubt: is it possible (or forbidden by SAP AG??) to develop an ABAP package (which, obiousvly, contains Z / Y Abap objects) and apply an "End User License" on it, i.e. on the ABAP code written? (I mean that the copryrights are mine, and I give an "End User License" to my customers (that buy the license), in order to get and run my abap code). I would avoid to sell my Abap package, but, if possibile, I would only give it according a "Use License".
May I do this thing without any problems, or have I to consider other aspects, like ask to SAP to reserve a namespace, or obtain SAP Netweaver certification for my ABAP solution, or other things?
(Infact the "End User License" that I mean is different from "SAP End User License")
Please, let me know your opinion and how or who could solve my matter.
Many thanks to all.
Best Regards,
Albert
