Will ABAP be completely Replace by JAVA

Hi Friends,
Will ABAP be replaced by JAVA in future.
Or
Will SAP give more importance to ABAP or JAVA
If I set my  Business Programming in ABAP, Will it sound
ever
Please help in knowing the fact

hi,
ABAP can't die because its the easiest development tool . It can be easily seen that if you see development cost ABAP development can be completed in less time as compared to Java.  And SAP is not stopping ABAP but just given an option to develop in java. However it will be good for ABAP Developers to learn java. 
ABAP is not a replacement for any thing and at the same time no other language is a replacement for ABAP.  FYI, ABAP is no more an ABAP/4. It is widely extended with the introduction of Web Application Server starting from release WAS 620. 
In Object Oriented Paradigm ABAP is the only langauge that goes very near to all the properties of OOP concepts even comparted to JAVA and C++ starting from release WAS 630. You can developed and extend web applications using ABAP. It is much much more than what we see from R/2 and R/3 3.X releases...
There is nothing to worry about it. Yes SAP is introducing J2EE platform as an alternate to make an implementation faster as in the market there are many JAVA developers compared to ABAP resources. 
More than this, ABAP is the SAP proprietary language. Except R/3 kernel, every application/transaction including BASIS is written in ABAP. I don't think SAP is that foolish to replace ABAP with some thing else. Look at the development news in SAP AG official web site for more info. One might need to know Java and JSP for developing mySAP portals but starting from SAP NetWeaver (which is planned to be released officially by the next quarter this year) you can developed 
heterogeneous portals using ABAP itself... 
Hope the above clarifies how ABAP is moving a head in the programming era. 
reward if helpful.

keerthi.

  • Will ORACLE 9i after few years will be completely replaced with ORACLE 10g

    Will ORACLE 9i after few years will be completely replaced with ORACLE 10g or higher versions.
    I have worked on Oracle 9i database and i have basic knowledge about Sql commands and i am planning to go for Oracle 10g Certification does it make any difference if i do not take ORACLE 9i Certification and directly go on to do my Certification.
    Kindly advise

    Will ORACLE 9i after few years will be completely replaced with ORACLE 10g or higher versions. Not sure what you mean by that. There are some systems which are running Oracle 7.x till date and the administrators have not even bothered to upgrade to Oracle 8i, let alone 10g/11g.
    does it make any difference if i do not take ORACLE 9i Certification and directly go on to do my Certification.It does not make any difference unless you want to get certified on every version of Oracle.

  • ABAP Web Dynpro V/S JAVA Web Dynpro

    We need to pick developing technology between ABAP Web Dynpro v/s JAVA Web Dynpro. Is technology better than other in terms of security, scalability? There is lot of documentation on the web but it is very old and out dated. I am pretty sure things have changed quite a bit with recent versions of SAP. Any feedback is greatly appreciated.
    Thanks.
    PS: I Used Web Dynpro for ABAP at my previous client for SAP SRM without a problem.

    Dear Sap Fan      
    This has been a long and interesting debate on SDN.
    You will find plenty of posts discussing this matter.
    But there's no clear winner, I warn you.
    ;o)
    This one in particular is very good:
    [http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/index?rid=/library/uuid/e0e4940c-035c-2b10-0b9d-eb8f99674f4e]
    But you can also check these others:
    [webdynpro java or abap;
    [Webdynpro Java or ABAP;
    [Webdynpro Java or ABAP;
    [Webdynpro Java or Abap ?;
    More and more you see clients migrating from WD4J to WD4A.
    Guess SAP is also heading into that direction, perhaps because Oracle bought SUN sometime ago.
    I'm comfortable on both environments I have to say.
    I have more than 10 years with development.
    I know ABAP from inside out.
    I also know JAVA and I'm certified with this technology.
    But I personally prefer WD4A.
    Why ?
    Because you don't need to use NWDI.
    Because you don't need to configure JCO's.
    Because you integrate seamlessly the development with the transport framework (requests, etc..)
    Because debugging is great.
    Because plenty of traditional ABAP tools (trace, logs, performance analysers, etc..) can also be used with WD4A
    Because you don't need to worry with NWDS...just type SE80 and you're there... ;o)
    And I could go on and on....
    But then again, it all depends:
    Do you have a lot of good in-house JAVA knowledge ?
    Do you use a lof of Custom JAVA development in your company ?
    Are you planning to use standard SAP (ESS/MSS or others for example) ?
    I'm not saying that WD4A is "better" than WD4J.
    There's no such thing.
    Each option has its pros and cons.
    You also can't tell that WD4J is more secure or scalable than WD4A. Or the opposite.
    And, believe me, WD4J is still going strong with a lot of customers.
    But things are changing, and for me WD4A would make more sense if you want to be aligned with SAP.
    Now and in the future.

  • Will I get a replacement for dust under the screen?...

    Hey everyone!
    I've had an iPhone since the 3G came out and I've never had any problems with dust. My 3G got replaced by 02 insurance about 5 months ago and I got a new 3GS 16GB. Since then I noticed the odd little bit of dust appearing under the screen. Most of the time I couldn't see it so I didn't really care but now I've noticed a few larger pieces and they're really annoying.
    I understand that I should get a 12 month warranty with this and surely it's not meant to happen so I'd expect a replacement. I've searched around and I seem to get mixed answers. The problem is that I'm currently working in Cologne and there are only 3 Apple Stores in Germany (I can't believe it!) and the nearest one is still over 100 miles away.
    What do you recommend? Would Apple do anything like post one (I doubt it?) or am I going to just have to wait until I'm near Frankfurt (or even back in London) and book an appointment there. Even then... what are my chances of getting a replacement?
    Thanks in advance everyone! Much appreciated

    I doubt they will give you a replacement. I know here in the States you can take your iphone to an Apple store and they can replace the screen and charge you $200 for that. But I find it hard to believe they would replace the screen for free just because there are dust particles under the glass. That's just my opinion.

  • HT1719 I have music on my Shuffle and want to transfer it onto iTunes but when I go to Sync it, it warns me that all the music on my Shuffle will be deleted and replaced with what's on my iTunes. I have a new mac-mini and my old computer was an HP.

    Can anyone tell me how to tranfer the music that is on my Shuffle to iTunes? When I go to Sync it, it gives me a warning that all the music on my Shuffle will be deleted and replaced with what is on my iTunes. I recently changed computers from an HP to a Mac-Mini and did not transfer/sync the itunes prior to getting rid of my itunes. So the music I had on itunes does not appear in my library. Help please!

    See this excellent user tip from another forum member turingtest2 outlining the different methods and software available to help you copy content from your iPod back to your new Mac and into iTunes.
    Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device
    Then proceed to do the Erase and Sync or restore the device.

  • My iphone is synced and backed up with another computer which is now broken... and i have synced it with a new one but when i want to do anything itunes says all data will be erased and replaced with the current itunes library?what do i do?

    my iphone is synced and backed up with another computer which is now broken...i have synced it with my new computer  but it hasnt transfered anything over to itunes and when i try to add anything to my iphone it says all data will be erased and replaced with the current itunes? i dont want to lose all my apps and music.... i dont know how to go around this problem? i want to back it all up and sync it properly to my new computer so that is now my main computer , so i can add ring tones and music etc with out it erasing everything ive got. any answers would be great and muchly appreciated. thanks, im not sure what operating system my iphone has either.....

    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for just such an occasion.
    Use your backup copy of your computer to put everything on the new one.
    It sounds like you have failed to do this, which is not good at all.
    You will have to transfer your itunes purchases from your iphone.  Authorize your computer for your itunes account 
    About iTunes Store authorization and deauthorization
    Open itunes, plug in iphone, do NOT sync, click File>Transfer Purchases
    When you do sync you will lose your pics ( photo library - synced from your old computer), your itunes content ( music, apps, videos,etc) , your contacts and your calendars.  So do NOT sync yet.  This is why a backup copy is so important.
    Enter one unique contact and calendar entry on your computer.
    When you first sync, you should get the option to merger the data.  Choose it.
    If you want your pics, then you will need to e-mail them to yourself before you sync.  They will not be of the original quality as they are reduced when synced to iphone.
    When all is as goos as it can be, then backup your computer, and always maintain the backup.

    Hi,
    You would have to start by looking at the logs for webas java.
    Is this parameter set rdisp/j2ee_start to 1?
    Which version of SAP are you running?
    You would have to provide more information regarding your landscape.

  • How to add abap stack to existing NW Java engine- for XI installation

  • Why Safari 6.0 will not auto complete the password ?

    Why Safari 6.0 will not auto complete the password ? even when the option is selected in autofill tab, and the user-password are listed in the password tab ?
    It used to work fine before I upgraded to mountain lion.
      Tks

    Same problem for me since upgrading to ML.  Safari remembers autofills for some passwords but not others.  For example my web mail password was no longer auto filled.  Checked in the keychain list and all the info was there. Therefore I deleted this and tried again - but Safari did not offer to remember the password.  Than ran an old script I had that is designed to "Removed autocomplete=off from 0 forms and from 2 form elements, and removed onsubmit from 0 forms. After you type your password and submit the form, the browser will offer to remember your password." Safari then offered to remember the password.  I accepted this and checked that the password was then saved in keychain - it was. However, next time I tried to access the email Safari once more did not auto complete.  Very frustrating, especially as some auto completes do work.  I hope apple sort this out soon.

    Keep in mind that Unix servers are case sensitive, so index.html is not the same file as Index.html. Maybe that's part of your problem?

  • White 2008 MacBook will not boot completely (hangs up)

    For Christmas 2008 I bought a New 2008 Apple MacBook (White) for my 13 year old Grandson. He gave it back to me to "fix" .
    He said the following problem ----will not boot/Hangs UP during boot---- *first appeared immediately after he downloaded and installed an "APPLE/MACBOOK" update of some kind last week.*
    DOES THIS SOUND FAMILIAR TO ANYONE OUT THERE? IF SO I WOULD APPRECIATE YOUR SUGGESTIONS.
    More info:
    It will not boot completely. when powered on it-- chimes once with the normal Mac sounds (Not a POST Beep error)---- and a white screen---- with apple logo in center appears--- after several seconds a small spinning "activity/busy" circle appears below the logo. This circle appears and spins for about 3 to 4 minutes with no other activity happening. Then the screen goes blank and power goes off.
    Oh yes I am not certain as to the Exact OS designation that is installed (sorry)
    I am new to Mac but have checked:
    The power (A/C, and supply are on, Mag power cord attached and battery charge light on battery is blinking green with 4 steady green lEDs on--- (So I assume I'm OK with NO power or battery issues)
    I then tried to boot into "safe" mode. (shift key when power on) (No change)
    Then I tried Cmd, Option, P, R keys as suggested in manual during power on to reset nv(p)Ram (No change)
    Grandson is searching for manuals, OS Apple Hardware troubleshooting disk etc. While I wait to receive those items from him --------
    Does anyone have any Ideas /suggestions?
    Thanks in advance!
    Joe

    HI Joe and Welcome to Apple Discussions...
    Since you can't boot in Safe Mode that's not a good sign. You really need those install disc(s) to repair the drive if necessary.
    When you get the install disc...
    Insert the installer disk and Restart, holding down the "C" key until grey Apple appears.
    Go to Installer menu (Panther and earlier) or Utilities menu (Tiger and later) and launch Disk Utility.
    Select your HDD (manufacturer ID) in the left panel.
    Select First Aid in the Main panel.
    (Check S.M.A.R.T Status of HDD at the bottom of right panel. It should say: Verified)
    Click Repair Disk on the bottom right.
    If DU reports disk does not need repairs quit DU and restart.
    If DU reports errors Repair again and again until DU reports disk is repaired.
    When you are finished with DU, from the Menu Bar, select Utilities/Startup Manager.
    Select your start up disk and click Restart
    While you have the Disk Utility window open look at the bottom of the window. You will see Capacity and Available. Make sure you always have a minimum of 10% free disk space.
    You can try something that doesn't require the install disk and that's Reset the SMC
    If you can get the MacBook to boot up to the Desktop, click the Apple Menu then click About This Mac. The Mac OS X version number will be displayed there. 10.x.x

  • Safari will not load completely, just the top line

    safari will not open completely, just the top line appears. I have an Imac oper at 10.5.8

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or earlier, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.
