Since i'm tangled up in quite an extensive project using Abap OO I came across the issue that the ABAP workbench doesn't allow you to generate getters and setters for class-attributes. After searching a bit on Google I stumbled across Timo John's blog basically assigning the whole issue, and supplying us with a report.
After playing around a bit, I found that I missed some features:
- The report doesn't allow you to select which attributes you want to generate the getters/setters for.
- The report doesn't allow you to easily delete the generated records.
- I use a different standard on naming my attributes, and I wanted a consistent way of naming my parameters.
- I tend to also use constants in my classes, and I don't want getters and setters for that.
Therefore I took the report he wrote and extended (quite a bit of) it.
Before extending the report, I created a class (for testing puposes) with a few attributes on it.
So, in this case you can see I have a few different type of attributes.
Now I fire up the getter/setter generating program.
When pressing F8 it leads me to a second screen in which I can select for which attribute I want to generate/delete the getters and setters.
After generating, opening the class in SE24, you see the getters and setters which have been generated.
Including the implementation and the importing/returning parameters.
Since the blog doesn't allow me to attach a SAPLINK nugget, the download is available from here, hopefully this is something where others can also benefit from.
