Report to search ABAP code in Enhancement implementations

With SAP Standard report RS_ABAP_SOURCE_SCAN or the SAP Code Inspector (transaction SCI) it is not possible to do text based searches through Enhancement Implementations

Inspired by the archived discussion here, I put together below little ABAP code scanner for Enhancement implementations.

Features

Full Text search in ABAP code inside implicit- and explicit Enhancement implementations/spots.
Limit search range by Development Package
Simple list output with matching enhancements & line of code where hit occurred
No further fancy stuff.

Enjoy

I have been looking for something like this. Excellent work. I have a suggestion though. Why not host this on github so that people can develop on this. Like you said - no fancy stuff right now, but others might want to develop other fancy stuff on top of this. Just my two cents. Cheers! 🙂

Hi Karthikeyan,

Thanks for the reply. I coded this little piece because I needed the functionality. I figured it might be useful for others as well, so I posted it here.

I feel Github is for software projects and I don't think this is, or should be one. But I encourage others to take this code and bring it to Github and turn it into something great.

Best regards,

Joris

Hello Joris,

you could create an abapGit project and link it to save us the effort to enter the code manually. Further, specifying an open source license tells others are welcome to re-publish the code if they make change, like mine below.

Where were you when I needed this few years ago? 🙂

Second the suggestion to put this on Github. Then others could also make changes and maybe even add "fancy stuff". 🙂 That's a win-win.

Thanks for sharing!

Very nice, thanks!

A related, useful function would be to search customer modified code. One could use the Information from table SMODILOG as basis, and then parse the Code where lines like

*{   INSERT

occur.

And it would be great to have These functions built into the Standard SAP Code search report (which, to my Knowledge, is Report RS_ABAP_SOURCE_SCAN).

Edit, September 19: I just wrote a blog about extending RS_ABAP_SOURCE_SCAN to search enhancements and modifications: https://blogs.sap.com/2018/09/19/code-search-in-modifications-and-enhancements/
