What is BOXED Components in ABAP? Let me try to explain you.

Going forward Pseudo Comments are getting replaced by Pragmas which are introduced since ABAP release 7.0 EhP2. So, What are Pragmas? Lets check it out.

New feature of ABAP Method Chaining is available from ABAP Release 7.0 EhP2 onward. Method chaining reduces the need for Helper variables, which makes code more cleaner.

ABAP Internal Table Secondary Keys are introduced in ABAP release 7.0 EhP 2. Secondary keys are added advantage for Internal Tables with huge data.

ABAP New Debugger has also got few new features as part of release 7.0 EhP2. A new addition “Key” in Table Display Tool is added to check various keys available on the Internal Table.

ABAP New Debugger has few more additions to the debugger as well. Since ABAP release 731 which is delivered as part of ECC 6 EhP6 Release 7 EhP6, you can have conditional breakpoints.

ABAP New Debugger has few more additions to the debugger as well. Since ABAP Release 731, you can skip the breakpoints.

ABAP Database Connectivity also known as ADBC provides Object Oriented approach to access the database. You can also access the DB dynamically using the ADBC.

String Templates are introduced in SAP with ABAP release 731.

With ABAP release 731, you have && which can be used instead of CONCATENATE. You also have & which seems to be doing the same job. So what is the difference?

Regular Expressions or RegEx are very powerful and useful when working with Text literals. Check out how RegEx can be used in ABAP

Recent question on SCN about the ABAP memory allocation, inspired me to do some reading and research on how memory is allocated for variables in ABAP programs.

With ABAP release 740, you can use the NEW operator to instantiate the object. Read more to learn about NEW Operator.

Similar to the NEW operator to instantiate the object, you can use the NEW as well with internal table processing to append rows within it.

Using the VALUE operator, you would be able to get the ITAB content assigned to the variable which is ITAB typed. Lets explore it in more details.

Read and Modify the ITAB records without using the temporary work area or variables. It is possible with using the ABAP Table Expressions. Lets see more about them.

As name suggests, this new predictive function checks if the Line is available in the internal table or not.

Many times I have seen people are using the ABAP Text Elements. You must not use them as constants.

ABAP 740 has a new special type of structure – MESH. Lets deep dive to know more about these Meshes.

In the mesh structure as of ABAP 740, you can move forward or backward using the association. Lets check out more on them.
