Further Changes in ABAP Release 4.6C ITOC
ABAP_MODIFICATION_NN Scan Buffer Enhancement>
The scan buffer has been increased from 8 kB> to 28 kB>. Each ABAP statement can now contain a parameter list of this length. For example, a WHERE>> clause can now contain 450 selection entries (instead of 100 as before) if variable names of 30 characters are used.
ABAP_MODIFICATION_NN New Functions for Strings>
The functions CHARLEN> and NUMOFCHAR> are now available for strings. CHARLEN>> returns the length of the first character in a string or a character-like field. In single-byte code pages, this is always 1. In SAP-compatible multibyte code pages, this can be either 1 or 2. NUMOFCHAR>> returns the number of characters in a string or character-like field. In single-byte code pages>, the behavior is the same as for the STRLEN>>. In multibyte code pages, characters occupying more than one byte are considered to have a length of 1.
ABAP_MODIFICATION_NN Greater Precision in BCD Arithmetic>
BCD> arithmetic for the data type P> has been modified so that intermediate results are now calculated using 127 digits (instead of 63 as before). This change affects the internal representation only, since type P> fields are still defined with a maximum of 16 bytes (or 31 digits).
ABAP_MODIFICATION_NN New Comparison Expression IS SUPPLIED> >
The comparison expression IS SUPPLIED> > indicates whether an actual parameter is specified for an optional formal parameter of a method or function module. The new expression replaces the expression IS REQUESTED>> , and renders it obsolete.
