ABAP Editor(SE38/80) dynamic patterns
This post is about tooling around the ABAP workbench(SE80). You can speed up your development using dynamic patterns. What are patterns? Patterns are helper plugins in the ABAP workbench to help you generate a necessary call to various ABAP constructs like Methods, function modules, declarations etc. Accessing Patterns: Implicitly invoking them by opening them on the left side category and dragging and dropping them to your editor. If you are on an ABAP 7.4+ system, It generates declarations for you too. Or, You can access them by clicking on the Pattern button on the ABAP editor in edit mode. A popup appears, providing you with Options. Providing the same class and methods in the popup results in generated code. The output depends on which system you are. ABAP 7.3: ABAP 7.4: In conclusion, ABAP dynamic patterns are a great way of speeding up and simplifying your day-to-day development effort even though they are not the only ones. T
