meth( ... ) - Specifying the Method
Short Reference
ABAP Syntax ... meth
| oref- meth
| class= meth
| super- meth ... .
ABAP_ALTERNATIVES:
1 ... meth ... .
2 ... oref- meth ... .
3 ... class= meth ... .
What does it do? These names are used for the to specify methods
statically, where meth is a valid name for the method in the
current context. A special case of specifying methods statically is when
they are specified after the pseudo reference
super in methods of
subclasses.
Latest notes: The name of a method can be the name of the method declared
in METHODS , a name composed using the
interface component selector ,
or an alias name .
ABAP_ALTERNATIVE_1 ... meth ... .
What does it do? Can be specified in method implementations for any method
meth of the same class. In instance methods, meth is a
short form of me- meth , where me is the
self reference .
ABAP_ALTERNATIVE_2 ... oref- meth ... .
What does it do? Can be specified in processing blocks in which a method
meth is visible, where oref contains an object reference
to an object that contains the method as a component. oref can be
specified as an existing reference variable or (in suitable operand
positions) a constructor
expression with a constructor
operator NEW or
CAST . The latter is
particularly applicable for standalone
method calls .
ABAP_ALTERNATIVE_3 ... class= meth ... .
What does it do? Can be specified in processing blocks in which a
static method meth is visible,
where class is one of the classes allowed by the package check,
which contains the method as a static
component .
