This blog represents part 5 of the 6-part series Getting comfortable using the Object-Oriented design model with ABAP.
To recap from the preceding blog, we took a program having classes with multiple responsibilities and transformed it so that each class has only a single responsibility. However, we’ve noticed after making classes flight_report, carrier_report and booking_report compliant with the Single Responsibility Principle that our changes have rendered these three classes exact duplicates of each other except for their names. Here is the source code as we left it in the previous blog:
Open your favorite ABAP editor, make a copy of this ABAP program and follow along as we apply changes to remove classes that no longer serve a purpose. For those who do not have ABAP2XLSX available at their site, replace class excel_spreadsheet_manager with the following source code:
and include the following local exception class definition after the report statement:
Motivation
We’ve been improving our example program with each set of changes applied, each change making it that much more resilient when subjected to subsequent maintenance efforts. When we started, classes flight_report, carrier_report and booking_report each had their own unique processing to perform. Since then we have consolidated some of this processing by having these classes inherit from superclass report, and subsequently removed code from these classes to have them comply with the Single Responsibility Principle. Accordingly, those aspects of these classes that previously distinguished themselves from each other have been eliminated, resulting in three virtually identical classes.
Removing unnecessary classes
First, change class report in the following ways:
When completed, the definition of the report class should look like this:
At this point a syntax check will fail for class flight_report inheriting from class report, which now can have no subclasses since we’ve added the qualifier final to its class definition statement.
Next, make the following changes:
When completed, the code in method drive_process should look like this:
At this point a syntax check will pass again.
Executing the program at this point should prove that it still works as before.
Summary
We’ve made enough changes for now and the final image of the code looks like this:
Despite having introduced class inheritance with previous changes, the changes applied here have now removed the use of any inheritance, an exquisite example of how continually improving the code also results in its simplification.
What’s next?
There remain other concepts of object-oriented programming for us to explore using this simple example program. It still has local static classes. The next step is to refactor the program so that no static classes remain. This will be covered in the blog representing part 6 of this 6-part series Getting comfortable using the Object-Oriented design model with ABAP.
Part 1 – Transforming a simple procedural model into its equivalent OO design, focusing on the OO principles of Encapsulation and Abstraction.
Part 2 – Exploring Abstraction further by refactoring the program to transform selected static classes into instantiable classes.
Part 3 – Refactoring the program further to take advantage of the OO principle of Inheritance.
Part 4 – Adhering to the Single Responsibility Principle by refining the program to restrict each class to do only what it is intended to do.
Part 5 – Removing classes that no longer serve a purpose.
Part 6 – Introducing the Singleton OO design pattern, resulting in elimination of all static classes.
To recap from the preceding blog, we took a program having classes with multiple responsibilities and transformed it so that each class has only a single responsibility. However, we’ve noticed after making classes flight_report, carrier_report and booking_report compliant with the Single Responsibility Principle that our changes have rendered these three classes exact duplicates of each other except for their names.

Accordingly, those aspects of these classes that previously distinguished themselves from each other have been eliminated, resulting in three virtually identical classes.
Removing unnecessary classes
First, change class report in the following ways:
- Remove the qualifier abstract from its class definition, replacing this with the qualifier final.
- Remove the produce_report method definition.
- Remove the protected section header (this will cause the present_report method now to be defined as a public method).
When completed, the definition of the report class should look like this:
class report definition
final.
public section.
methods : present_report
changing
record_stack
type standard table
.
endclass.At this point a syntax check will fail for class flight_report inheriting from class report, which now can have no subclasses since we’ve added the qualifier final to its class definition statement.
Next, make the following changes:
- Remove class flight_report.
- Remove class carrier_report.
- Remove class booking_report.
- In method drive_process of class process_driver, do the following:
- Change the name of variable flight_report to report and change its type to indicate reference to report.
- Remove the definitions for variables carrier_report and booking_report.
- On the create object statement, change variable name flight_report to report.
- Remove carrier_report and booking_report from the create object statement.
- Change the call to method flight_report->produce_report to report->present_report.
- Change the call to method carrier_report->produce_report to report->present_report.
- Change the call to method booking_report->produce_report to report->present_report.
When completed, the code in method drive_process should look like this:
method drive_process.
