Obsolete ABAP Statements from 2004s - what about your existing code-base? A great discussion about the changes in syntax checking between 46c and basis release 7.0.

ABAP Objects and Upgrade

Hi,
I would like to discuss pro and cons of using ABAP Objects for custom development related to upgrades. For example, it seems to be an advantage to encapsulate standard functionality. Through encapsulation the calling programs do not have to care about whether or not the underlying functionality has been changed. Reuse makes it possible to adapt affected areas centrally without having to make changes in various places. However, I saw a thread in this forum regarding older ABAP Objects programming which was obsolete after an upgrade. Even if it seems good that obsolete statements are detected and can be exchanged, it is additional upgrade work which would have been avoided if the code had not been written in ABAP Objects.
Please share you pros and cons regarding this subject.
Thanks!

J@Y - it's a good link to an interesting discussion. But it's 5 years old... ABAP Objects has moved on since then. ( Also, (moderator hat on) please refrain from just posting links without at least giving an indication of what the links are about ).
To the original poster. I think it is VERY unlikely that statements that are allowed now in an OO environment will be disallowed in future. I've been working in Objects since 46C, and have been careful to observe the warnings, and also quick to adopt the new syntax and reject the obsolete (even before it became necessary). The only remedial work I've had to do in ten years, is on a few classes, where the constructor wasn't calling the super constructor. And that was easily identified and remedied.
My experience has been, in those last ten years, that properly written object oriented code leads to developments that are much easier and quicker to maintain - and therefore, a lot cheaper. And that's the bottom line.

Abap objects standards

Hi Folks,
I'm in need of help. I have just come into a shop that has no SAP OO standards. There are many kingdoms that are not even using SE24 to build classes. Is there a SAP document or guide I can use to set standards. I am really fighting with producing good code over what is in place.
Thanks
Bruce

Hi Bruce,
I am sorry for saying things that have nothing to do with ABAP , i really thought that what i said about zevolving.com had something to do with ABAP OO, regarding design patterns and OO concepts applied to it.
See below my reason to think it: (there's much more, i really appreciate this blog and several times i merged these approaches to mine )
and etc,
I like to learn concepts, because these are made of ideas. Ideas aren't bonded to physical limitations. Your physical resources may evolve and become obsolete over time, an idea can evolve but it can't die, although it can be changed with a tremendous flexibility, it will never be obsolete over a reasonable amount of time.
I am a bit sad because you said i am hiding behind the first link i sent . Robert Martin (CEO of Object Mentor) has so much to say about this matter, and his text about Symptoms of Rotting Design says about an absurd quantity of problems i have seen and interacted with in my ABAP experience. The other book i mentioned has so much good concepts and ideas that in here ... i can't put in words.
I am really sorry for being a nuisance. Lesson learned, i won't talk about matters that are so far from the topic ever again.
Obs.: About official SAP documentation, in the SAP Official Course TAW12 (since 2007 *when i saw this subject in it), SAP released in part 1, around 300 pages of content about ABAP Objects. And there are others you can check in SAP PRESS

Obsolete ABAP statements/FM/BAPI in sap 4.7

dear experts
pls gv me the details of obsolete ABAP statements/FM/BAPI in sap 4.7 and their replacement in ECC 6.0,the statements should be related to MODULE POOL ,reports

Hello
ERP 6.0 implies Unicode as well. Therefore have a look at [ABAP and Unicode|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/62/3f2cadb35311d5993800508b6b8b11/content.htm]
You will find useful documentation in the ABAP keyword documenation (ERP 6.0) as well:
Obsolete Statements
The statements described in this subnode are obsolete and are only still available for reasons of compatibility with releases prior to 4.6 or 6.10. You may still come across these statements in old programs but you should not use them in new programs.
Most of the obsolete statements listed here are syntactically forbidden in ABAP Objects or in Unicode programs. As a result, they can now only be used outside of classes or non-Unicode programs. There are replacement constructions for all obsolete statements which improve the efficiency and readability of programs.
Apart from the obsolete statements listed in this node, there are also obsolete variants and additions for non-obsolete statements. These cannot be used in ABAP Objects and Unicode programs either. They are detailed in the description of the corresponding statements.

List the used ABAP objects

Hi all,
I'm looking for a standard tool to list the used ABAP objects (Reports, Include, Function Group, CLASSes) in a time
frame of one year or at least since the start-up.
My goal is the identification of the obsolete custom developments to dismiss it.
I have found the transaction SCOV but the goal of this transaction is the estimation of the code
coverage during the test.
Anyone can help me?
Thanks in advantage

This kind of data is stored in table MONI - Monitor table MONI (summarized cluster table!) and in some files of the application server (in the OS behind SAP)
- Transaction STAT or ST03n use data stored in these tables
- Some FM like [SAPWL_SERVLIST_GET_LIST|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/advancedsearch?cat=sdn_all&query=sapwl_servlist_get_list&adv=false&sortby=cm_rnd_rankvalue] and [SAPWL_WORKLOAD_GET_STATISTIC|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/advancedsearch?query=sapwl_workload_get_statistic&cat=sdn_all] may be used to get the data from each application server
(click on the links to get more information and samples on how to use these FM)

Is ABAP Objects support Header Lines?

Hello Friends,
Is ABAP Objects (Object Oriented) Supports Header Lines? If not, why Abap Objects doesn't Support?
Thanks & Regards
Sathish Kumar

Hi,
ABAP objects does not support HEADER LINE. you will get syntax error if your use OCCURS or WITH HEADER LINE in any class methods.
ABAP objects concept was brought to proivde strict type checkings. ABAP objects is a relatively new concept. even in normal ABAP program HEADER LINE is obsolete.
Use of tables with header line might lead to some coding error specially when maintaining.
If you use CLEAR itab, it clears the work area may be you intend to clear the table.
to clear the table you have to use CLEAR itab[]. This syntax is not advised and error prone so it is not allowed in ABAP objects. Its allowed in ABAP to be consistant with old programs which still use header line.

Sesh

Logical Database in Abap Objects

Hi to All
I want do it a program report using a Logical Database.
Is this possible ??? But when I make a GET <node>, occurs the following error:
 "" Statement "ENDMETHOD" missing. ""
I'm doing the following:
CLASS MONFIN IMPLEMENTATION.
 METHOD TRAER_DATOS.
 GET VBRK.
 ENDMETHOD.
ENDCLASS.
Please, somebody tell me how I use the logical database in Abap Objects.
Thank you very much
Regards
Dario R.

Hi there
Logical databases whilst of "some use" are not really part of OO.
If you want to use a logical database in an abap OO program I would create a special class which just does the get data from your DB and pass this either at record or table level.
Techniques such as GET XXXX LATE aren't really part of any OO type of application since at Object Instantiation time you should be able to access ALL the attributes of that object.
As far as OO is concerned Logical databases are a throwback to "Dinosaur Technology".
Since however modules such as SD and FI are still heavily reliant on relational structures (i.e linked tables etc) then there is still some limited life in this stuff but for OO try and solve it by another method.
If you really must use this stuff in OO then do it via a FMOD call and save the data in a table which your method will pass back to your application program.
You can't issue a GET command directly in a method.
Cheers
Jimbo

Adding leading zeros in abap objects.

Can anyone explain me
1. How to add leading zeros to a field in abap objects.
For eg:
data: dmb(6) type c value '123456',
actually the output value of c should have leading zeros added to it for length 16.
i.e '0000000000123456' . If the length of dmb is less than 16 then leading zeros should be added to that value to make it 16 as length.
Please tell me how to do it in ABAP Objects.

Hi Camila
Try to use the statement
DATA: ALPHABET(15) VALUE ' ABCDEFGHIJ',
 M1(4) VALUE 'ABCD',
 M2(6) VALUE 'BJJCA '.
SHIFT ALPHABET LEFT DELETING LEADING M1.
The field
ALPHABET
remains unchanged.
SHIFT ALPHABET LEFT DELETING LEADING SPACE.
The field ALPHABET now has the following contents:
'ABCDEFGHIJ '.
SHIFT ALPHABET RIGHT DELETING TRAILING M2.
ALPHABET now has the following contents:
' ABCDEFGHI'.
IN CHARACTER MODE
Effect
This is the default setting (see above), and the addition is therefore optional.
Note
Performance:
For performance reasons, you should avoid using SHIFT in WHILE loops.
The runtime required to shift a field with length 10 by one character to the right or left requires about 5 msn (standardized microseconds). A cyclical shift requires around 7 msn. The runtime for the ...
LEFT DELETING LEADING
... variant is around 3.5 msn, for ...
RIGHT DELETING TRAILING
... around 4.5 msn.
Reward all helpfull answers

Exception 'error_message' in ABAP Objects

I've got a heterogeneous scenario with new program parts in ABAP objects and older parts in classical ABAP.
In the older parts some R/3 standard functions are called which dump dialog messages which are not allowed at that state of the program flow ('on commit').
The simple solution in classical ABAP was to use standard exception 'error_message' in the top level 'call function' statement thus catch all dialog messages in lower levels.
I am looking for an analog solution in object oriented ABAP. But exception 'error_message' is not allowed with 'call method'. It cannot be defined statically in the methods declaration. And the system exception caused by the dialog error message is not included in the set of catchable system errors.
I would be grateful for any hints concerning this problem.

Hi
Excuse me! But I didn't want to sent you my answer.
Anyway:
CLASS lcl_my_class DEFINITION.
PUBLIC SECTION.
    METHODS my_method
              EXPORTING
                EXCEPTION TYPE CHAR1
              EXCEPTIONS error_messages.
ENDCLASS.                    "LCL_MY_CLASS DEFINITION
CLASS lcl_my_class IMPLEMENTATION.
METHOD my_method.
    IF EXCEPTION = 'X'.
      MESSAGE e208(00) WITH 'Message error'
                  RAISING error_messages.
    ELSE.
      MESSAGE I208(00) WITH 'OK!'.
    ENDIF.
ENDMETHOD.                    "MY_METHOD
ENDCLASS.                    "LCL_MY_CLASS IMPLEMENTATION
So you did want to do a call like this:
CALL METHOD lcl_my_class=>my_method
   EXCEPTIONS
     error_messages = 1
     error_message = 2
     OTHERS         = 3.
No! you can't do it, but you try to insert your call in fm where you use ERROR_MESSAGE addition. I think you can do it if your methods are std.

Re : select-options in abap-objects program

Dear friends,
                  I want to give select-options in abap-objects program. How to give that.
                             Thanking You
with regards,
Mani

In the transaction SE24, enter your class name, click modify.
in the tab named "Types" you have to declare two types. By example, if you want to receive one select-options that in your program that uses this class is declared like:
" P_SAKNR FOR SKAT-SAKNR".
you've got to declare two types in the class:
a- TYPES: begin of E_S_SAKNR,
                      sign(1),
                      option(2),
                      low(10),
                      high(10),
                  end of E_S_SAKNR.
b - TYPES E_T_SAKNR type standard table of E_S_SAKNR.
so, in the class method that you want to receive P_SAKNR as importing parameter. You got to do this:
method TEST importing ET_SAKNR type E_T_SAKNR.
now, in the implementation of this method you should be able to use ET_SAKNR as the same way as you usually use a parameter or a select-option. You could use it in a select with the operator IN by example..

HI Mani,
It's common mix ABAP Procedural with ABAP Objects in the same program.
You should use the same way used in ABAP procedural program as Marco Cerdelli sad.
But inside ABAP OBJECTS classes you can't use is these statement type.
Don't forget to close this thread and all yours previous when your question be answered ! In case of doubt read the [rules of engagement|https://forums.sdn.sap.com/].

Java package concept in ABAP Objects

Hi, just a question on grouping of classes in ABAP Objects.
In Java, you can group classes by "package" to avoid
namespace collision, my question, in ABAP Objects, how
do you group classes to avoid namespace collision?
I know that there is package concept in SAP/ABAP but it
is different concept in Java.
Thanks in advanced for your reply.

Hello One and Lonley,
the package concept in ABAP and Java is quite different. In java the package name is part of the development object in ABAP not. So any class pool name is global unique. In combination with the restriction on 30 chars this leads often to somehow cryptic names.
The only way to escape this somehow is the excessive use of local classes. That mean classes defined within main programs. If you are on 7.00 you may check FuGr SAPLSAUNIT_TREE_CTRL_LISTENER for this technique.
Best Regards
