abaplintabaplintStatic analysis for ABAP that runs outside a system on serialised source in a repository, so ABAP checks run in a pull request and in CI before the code ever reaches a system.community org, abap itself runs outside the ABAP system, so this client is the half that lives inside it: triggered from SE24, SE80, SE38, ABAP in Eclipse or ABAP Test Cockpit, it collects the objects and dependencies a check needs, sends them to the abaplint Server, and displays the findings the server returns like any other check result in the SAP tools. Dependencies declared in an abaplint.json file are ignored in this mode; the client reads them from the running system instead. Because the code under test leaves the ABAP system for the server to check it, the maintainer states the server must be a secure and controllable one. The server is a separate project of its own, abaplint/abaplint-sci-server, and the installation page lists it as a prerequisite.

OBSOLETE abaplint SCI client
This project enables abaplint to be run in the context of SAP Code Inspector (SCI), allowing immediate feedback to the ABAP developers in their standard editor, SE24 / SE80 / SE38 / ABAP in Eclipse. And also works seamlessly with other places where the code inspector is triggered like ABAP Test Cockpit (ATC).
Overview
The integration requires two parts: The abaplint Server and the abaplint Client (this project). When performing code checks through one of the supported editors or transactions, the abaplint Client will collect the necessary objects and dependencies and send them to the abaplint Server to be processed. The server responds with all of the abaplint findings, which are displayed like any other check results in the SAP tools.
Important: The code under test leaves your ABAP system! Be sure to use a secure and controllable abaplint Server.
Note: Dependencies maintained in abaplint.json (in your repository) are ignored when running via SCI. Instead the dependencies are taken from the running ABAP system.
Examples
- ATC
Clicking the 'Check' or 'Check message' links will display the documentation of the rule in a browser. Click on the object name in the overview or 'Display object' in the details to jump to the location in the code related to the finding.
- SCI
Clicking the 'Info' icon next to a message will display the documentation of the rule in a browser. Double-click on a message to jump to the location in the code related to the finding.
- abapGit
Click on the object name to jump to the location in the code related to the finding.
