Future Orientation
Classes are the central element of object-orientation.
A Class is an abstract description of an object.
Classes are templates for objects.
The attributes of objects are defined by the components of the class, which describe the state and behavior of objects.
Classes
You define global classes and interfaces in the Class Builder (Transaction SE24) in the ABAP Workbench.
They are stored centrally in class pools in the class library in the R/3 Repository.
All of the ABAP programs in an R/3 System can access the global classes.
Classes
Components in a class
Defining Local ClassesA complete class definition consists of a declaration part and, if required, an implementation part.
The declaration part of a class is a statement block: CLASS c1 DEFINITION. . ENDCLASS.
If you declare methods in the declaration part of a class, you must also write an implementation part for it. CLASS c1 IMPLEMENTATION. . ENDCLASS.

Assigning References
Inheritance allows you to derive a new class from an existing class. You do this using the INHERITING FROM addition in the CLASS DEFINITION INHERITING FROM statement.The new class inherits all of the components of the existing class . The new class is called the subclass of the class from which it is derived. The original class is called the superclass of the new class.

Interfaces exclusively describe the external point of contact of a class, but they do not contain their own implementation part.

Interface References Narrowing casting
The assignment of an object reference to an interface reference is known as a narrowing cast since, as with inheritance, only a part of the object interface is visible once you have assigned the reference.
With an interface reference, you can no longer address all components in the class carrying out the implementation, but only the components defined in the interface.
Interface
Interface references widening cast
The widening cast is, as with inheritance, the opposite of the narrowing cast: here it is used to retrieve an object reference from an interface reference. Obviously it cannot be statically checked, since an interface can be implemented by more than one class.
An object reference cannot be assigned to an interface reference if it has itself not implemented the corresponding interface.
Interface
In the above example, one class is implementing several interfaces. Even if these interfaces contain components with the same name, they are differentiated in the class carrying out the implementation by the prefix ~. Using several Interface
Polymorphism and Interface
Objects or Classes use events to trigger Event Handler methods in other objects or classes.When an event is triggered any number of Event Handler Methods can be called.The events of a class can be raised in the same class using the RAISE EVENT Statement.Events have only output parameters which are accepted by the Event Handler Methods as input parameters.The link between the trigger and the handler is established dynamically at runtime using the statement SET HANDLER.
