Difference between ABAP sp stack & JAVA sp stack upgrade

Former Member

Hi,

Generally in Java stack upgrade is possible from one level to any level (for eg: stack 18 to stack 25). But in ABAP, we can perform upgrade only one by one (for eg: stack 18 to stack 19). so what is the actual logic behind this. we can say as ABAP componets required dependencies like... but, i guess that is not a proper answer.

So why this difference between java & abap. ?

Could you please help me to know this.

Thanks & Regards

Bala

Hi Bala,

The only difference is that the java support packages are cumulative. Within ABAP you can also upgrade from SP18 to 25, but in this case you should SP19 to 25 in the queue as well.

Hi Mark,

Thanks for your answer.

but my question is, for ABAP stack we have to put all the components like, 19,20,21,22,23,24, 25, to upgrade it to stack 25.

But in Java, we can directly put Stack 25 components. in between components are not required.

So what kind of logic this is ? what is this difference between ABAP & JAVA.

Thanks & Regards

I think SAP has done this because the ABAP support packs are quite big. When they accumulate these as well, you will get huge files..

Kind regards,
