Quick Summary

This Website is currently under heavy construction. Sorry for this inconvenience.

I am planning to present a couple of calendarical and astronomical algorithms written in ABAP Objects. My personal "Ars gratia artis" project.

HTML generation is based on a local ABAP class specifically designed for valid (X)HTML and XML document creation.

Currently two Netweaver 7.0 HTTP Handlers (coded in ABAP) are in service.
