Object-Oriented Programming with ABAP Objects

This book provides a gentle (and yet, comprehensive) start to programming object-oriented ABAP. What are objects? How to define and write classes? What’s polymorphism all about?



The book helps you to venture the switch to object-oriented programming, and brings your skills up to date: First learn about all essential OO concepts, then see examples from daily development work. Exception handling, object debugging and unit testing are demystified here, plus, you get advice on enhanced techniques and tools in ABAP 7.0. The book will not spend time teaching basic syntax, but only concentrate on teaching object-oriented development – your chance to successfully explore ABAP OO.
