Displaying the Content of Source Code Plug-insLocate this document in the navigation structure

If you hover the cursor over the marker, the enhancement implementation elements of the type source code plug-in are displayed in the enhancement popup.

In the top line or the upper part of the enhancement popup, the following information is displayed:

  • Name: Name of the enhancement implementation
  • Version: ABAP activation status of the enhancement implementation
  • Switch Name: Name of the Switch Framework switch assigned to the enhancement implementation
  • Switch State: Enable status of the related switch
  • Replacing: Name of the source code plug-in that is substituted

As is usual in Eclipse, the popup disappears if you move the cursor off the marker. So, in the popup menu bar below the source code plug-ins, additional information is provided on how to fix the display of the enhancement popup.

One or more enhancement implementations can be available at an enhancement option. Depending on the available number, the layout of the enhancement popup is different.

Display of a Single Source Code Plug-in

If only one source-code plug-in is available at an enhancement option, a simplified version of the enhancement popup is opened.

In the top line, the attributes of the available source code plug-in are displayed. Below, the source code of the enhancement implementation element is displayed.

Display of Several Source Code Plug-ins

If several source code plug-ins exist at a certain enhancement option, the enhancement popup displays two parts:

  • The upper part displays the source code plug-in hierarchy. It contains a list of top level source code plug-ins for the selected enhancement option. If a source code plug-in itself contains nested or replacing source code plug-ins, they are listed below as its sub-nodes.
  • The bottom part displays the concatenated source code of all source code plug-ins listed in the hierarchy area of the upper part. The source code of a certain plug-in is embedded adjacent to the enhancement option that it implements.

When you select a certain source code plug-in from the hierarchy area, its source code is highlighted.
