Getting Started

Installation

The first thing to do is to install the BBAP compiler. For that, you need to have at least .NET 7 installed. Then you can run the command:


      dotnet tool install -g bbap

Hello World!

First of all, so that you don't get confused, BBAP is not case-sensitive. This means that it doesn't matter if you write your code in uppercase or lowercase. So the variables str and STR are the same.

After installing, you can start writing your first BBAP program.


      printLine("Hello World!");

To compile the program, you have to run the following command in the terminal: bbap [input file name] [output file name] For example: bbap hello.bbap hello.abap

The code in the hello.abap file can now be copied into the SAP system and executed.
