Implicit Enhancement Options

In addition to enhancement options created explicitly using ENHANCEMENT-POINT and ENHANCEMENT-SECTION, implicit enhancement options exist in the following places in ABAP programs:

• After the last line of the source code of executable programs, function groups, module pools, subroutine pools, and Include programs,

• Before the first and after the last line of the implementation of a procedure (after the opening statement and before the END statement),

• At the end of a visibility section in the declaration section of a local class,

• At the end of a list of formal parameters of the same type in the declaration of local methods.

To make implicit enhancement options visible in the ABAP Editor, choose Edit → Enhancement operations → show implicit enhancement options. They can be enhanced using source code enhancements in the same way as explicit enhancement options.

Note

The visibility sections of global classes and the parameter interfaces of function modules and global methods also contain implicit enhancement options. These can be displayed and enhanced in the Class Builder or the Function Builder.
