What is superclass in SAP BC-ABA - ABAP Runtime Environment?


SAP Term: superclass


Smart SAP Assistant

  • Key Concepts: 
    A superclass is a type of class in the ABAP Runtime Environment (BC-ABA) of SAP software. It is a special type of class that contains methods and attributes that can be inherited by other classes. Superclasses are used to create a hierarchy of classes, allowing for the reuse of code and the creation of more complex objects. 
    
    How to use it: 
    In order to use a superclass, you must first create a subclass. This subclass will inherit all the methods and attributes from the superclass, allowing you to create more complex objects. You can then use the subclass to create objects that have the same methods and attributes as the superclass, but with additional functionality. 
    
    Tips & Tricks: 
    When creating a subclass, it is important to remember that any changes made to the superclass will also be applied to the subclass. Therefore, it is important to ensure that any changes made to the superclass are compatible with the subclass. Additionally, it is important to ensure that any changes made to the subclass do not affect the functionality of the superclass. 
    
    Related Information: 
    For more information on superclasses and how they are used in SAP software, please refer to SAP's official documentation on ABAP Runtime Environment (BC-ABA). Additionally, there are many online tutorials available that provide step-by-step instructions on how to create and use superclasses in SAP software.
