SAP ABAP Object Oriented Programming Tutorials

This document provides tutorials and examples on object-oriented programming concepts in SAP ABAP. It begins with an introduction to classes in OOABAP, defining classes as templates for objects. It then provides 3 examples to demonstrate different aspects of class visibility and accessibility in ABAP OO: 1) How public, protected, and private sections of a class control accessibility of attributes and methods to the class itself, subclasses, and external users. 2) How private attributes of a superclass cannot be accessed by subclasses. 3) How protected and private attributes of a class cannot be accessed by external users.

SAP ABAP Object Oriented Programming Tutorials & Examples

Hello ABAP programmers, we hope you are doing good today!! We


sapabapiq.com started a new series of posts on SAP ABAP tutorials with
e!amples to learn and understand the ob"ect oriented programming
concepts in ABAP. #his is the first post in this series of ABAP b"ect riented
Programming #utorials with e!amples. #his is basically for no$ice ABAP
programmers, if you are an e!perienced consultant "ust refresh your
%nowledge.
What is a Class in OOABAP ?
&'lasses are the central element of ob"ect(orientation.
&A 'lass is an abstract description of an ob"ect.
&'lasses are templates for ob"ects.
&#he attributes of ob"ects are defined by the components of the class,
which describe the state and beha$ior of ob"ects.
&)ou define global classes and interfaces in the 'lass Builder *#ransaction
S+,-. in the ABAP Wor%bench.
&#hey are stored centrally in class pools in the class library in the /01
/epository.
&All of the ABAP programs in an /01 System can access the global classes.

4. How to define, implement and instantiate a
class.
,. What are the different sections of $isibility in a
class.
1. How to define instance attributes and get them
accessed by e!ternal users.
#he following program will also show that 3(
5 6ata declared in public section can be accessed by the
class itself, by its sub classes as well as by other users
outside the class.
5 6ata declared in the protected section can be accessed
by the class itself, and also by its sub classes but not
by e!ternal users outside the class.
5 6ata declared in the pri$ate section can be accessed by
the class only, but not by its sub classes and by
e!ternal users outside the class.
Brief
6escription of
the Program
#his program contains a class 3 parent class with
following attributes in different sections3(
Commondata in public section
Protectdata in pri$ate section
Privatedata in pri$ate section
#he method showval in class 3 parentclass displays
$alues of all the attributes.
This demonstrates that class can access all its
attributes.
'lass childclass is a subclass of class parentclass,
which has a method 3 subval.
7t displays the $alue for the data 3 commondata and
protectdata .
#hen, it changes the $alues for both and displays
them again.
This demonstrates that subclass can
access/change public/ protected attributes of
superclass.
7n the STAT!"#!S$%$CT&"' e$ent, ob"ect 3
parent is instantiated from class 3 parentclass and
ob"ect 3 child is instantiated from class 3 childclass.
#hen , the method showval of parent*ob"ect of
parentclass. and method subval of child*ob"ect of
childclass. is called , which displays the $alues of
different attributes.
#hen, the public attribute of ob"ect parent is changed
and the changed $alue is displayed.
This demonstrates that e(ternal users can
change/ display public attributes of a class.

6escription
7n this program , class C1 has three attributes declared
in different sections as follows3(
5 Commondata in public section
5 Protectdata in pri$ate section
5 Privatedata in pri$ate section
7n the main program, an ob"ect , "+,1 is created from
class C1 and an incorrect attempt is made to display
the protected and pri$ate attribute of class C1 using its
ob"ect "+,1.
'ompilation of this program produces an error.
This demonstrates - protected and private
components of a class cannot be accessed by
e(ternal users.
