This blog represents part 2 of the 6-part series Getting comfortable using the Object-Oriented design model with ABAP.
To recap from the preceding blog, we took a procedural program and transformed it into one that uses local static classes and a local interface. 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 convert some of the static classes into classes that can be instantiated. 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
Currently all the local classes we defined in our example program are static classes. Static classes offer ABAP programmers a stepping stone toward becoming more familiar with object-oriented principles due to their similarity with ABAP function groups, specifically:
Though static classes are easier to grasp for those new to OO concepts, they have limitations to what they can offer with a truly object-oriented design. Indeed, many object-oriented scholars frown on the definition and use of a static class since there is no object associated with it.
Changing the report classes to enable instantiation
Let’s start with the static classes flight_report, carrier_report and booking_report. Change these classes by doing the following:
A syntax check at this point will fail on the statement invoking method produce_report of class flight_report. Yes, this class no longer has a static method, so this statement invoking a static method is no longer applicable. To resolve this and the other imminent syntax errors, include the following statements at the top of method drive_process:
The data statements define instance reference variables to each of these classes. The create object statement creates instances of these three types of classes, placing the references to these instances into the respective instance references variables. In addition, change each of the call method statements in the subsequent try-endtry block so that method name produce_report is preceded not by a class selector (=>) but by an instance selector (->), as in:
Now a syntax check will pass again. Executing the program at this point should prove that it still works as before.
What we’ve done here is to change the flight_report, carrier_report and booking_report classes from static classes to classes that can be instantiated. In addition, we’ve changed the drive_process method to a) create instances of these classes and then b) invoke the produce_report method upon those instances. Prior to these changes the program could not create instances of its local classes, but after applying these changes it can, meaning that we now have objects providing the reports to us.
Changing the excel_spreadsheet_manager class to enable instantiation
Next, we’ll do for local static class excel_spreadsheet_manager the same thing we just did for each of the local static report classes, but as you’ll soon see, this change is a bit more involved. Start by doing the following:
A syntax check now will fail on the call to method copy_table_to_excel_worksheet in method produce_report of class flight_report. Since class excel_spreadsheet_manager no longer has static methods, these methods no longer can be invoked via the class name, but more to the point is that to invoke the methods of class excel_spreadsheet_manager we now need an instance reference to it. To facilitate this, change the signature for produce_report in class flight_report so that it now accepts a second importing parameter as a reference to an instance of excel_spreadsheet_manager, as in:
Then change method produce_report of class flight_report so that the call to method name copy_table_to_excel_worksheet is preceded not by a class selector (=>) but by an instance selector (->), as in:
Apply this same relative change to both classes carrier_report and booking_report. Afterward, change method drive_process to:
The code in method drive_process now should look like this:
Now a syntax check will pass again. Executing the program at this point should prove that it still works as before.
What we’ve done here is to change class excel_spreadsheet_manager from a static class to an instance class, but just look at all the other changes this required:
Dependency Injection
One of the notable things about the changes we’ve made here is that the produce_report methods of classes flight_report, carrier_report and booking_report have had their signatures changed to accept a reference to an instance of a class on an importing parameter. In this case the instance is one of type reference to excel_spreadsheet_manager. When excel_spreadsheet_manager was defined as a static class its methods could be reached from anywhere within the program simply by prefixing the method calls with the class qualifier, as in:
Notice the use of the class selector (=>) in the statement above instead of the instance selector (->) now being used for such calls. Now that excel_spreadsheet_manager is no longer a static class, the produce_report methods no longer would have had access to what is now an instance of this class. Accordingly, the produce_report methods of classes flight_report, carrier_report and booking_report need to have an instance of class excel_spreadsheet_manager made available to them. With our new process, the instance on which the produce_report method is dependent is injected into the method through its signature. This concept is known as dependency injection. There are other ways to inject dependencies into instances of classes, but when a method signature provides an object on which the method depends, it is known as parameter injection, a specific type of dependency injection. In short, dependency injection is in effect when a class or method is provided with a dependency it needs to satisfy its processing.
Summary
We’ve made enough changes for now and the final image of the code looks like this:
We now have instances of local classes being created and we are passing instances between objects via dependency injection.
What’s next?
There remain other concepts of object-oriented programming for us to explore using this simple example program. Currently all the three report classes contain much duplicated code. The next step is to refactor the program so that these three report classes can inherit code common to all of them. This will be covered in the blog representing part 3 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 procedural program and transformed it into one that uses local static classes and a local interface. Here is the source code as we left it in the previous blog:

endclass.and include the following local exception class definition after the report statement:
class zcx_excel definition
inheriting from cx_static_check.
endclass.Motivation
Currently all the local classes we defined in our example program are static classes. Static classes offer ABAP programmers a stepping stone toward becoming more familiar with object-oriented principles due to their similarity with ABAP function groups, specifically:
- Function groups and static classes both offer only a single copy of the attributes and data fields they define.
- Function groups and static classes both are loaded into storage with the first reference to one of its members.
- Methods of static classes can be invoked via the class name, similar to the way function modules can be invoked simply via the function module name.
Though static classes are easier to grasp for those new to OO concepts, they have limitations to what they can offer with a truly object-oriented design. Indeed, many object-oriented scholars frown on the definition and use of a static class since there is no object associated with it.
Changing the report classes to enable instantiation
Let’s start with the static classes flight_report, carrier_report and booking_report. Change these classes by doing the following:
- Remove the qualifier abstract from their class definition statements.
- Change the definition of their method produce_report from a static method to an instance method by replacing “class-methods” with “methods”.
A syntax check at this point will fail on the statement invoking method produce_report of class flight_report. Yes, this class no longer has a static method, so this statement invoking a static method is no longer applicable. To resolve this and the other imminent syntax errors, include the following statements at the top of method drive_process:
data : flight_report type ref to flight_report
, carrier_report type ref to carrier_report
, booking_report type ref to booking_report
.
create object: flight_report
, carrier_report
, booking_report
.The data statements define instance reference variables to each of these classes. The create object statement creates instances of these three types of classes, placing the references to these instances into the respective instance references variables. In addition, change each of the call method statements in the subsequent try-endtry block so that method name produce_report is preceded not by a class selector (=>) but by an instance selector (->), as in:
call method flight_report->produce_report exporting row_count = row_count.
call method carrier_report->produce_report exporting row_count = row_count.
call method booking_report->produce_report exporting row_count = row_count.Now a syntax check will pass again. Executing the program at this point should prove that it still works as before.
What we’ve done here is to change the flight_report, carrier_report and booking_report classes from static classes to classes that can be instantiated. In addition, we’ve changed the drive_process method to a) create instances of these classes and then b) invoke the produce_report method upon those instances. Prior to these changes the program could not create instances of its local classes, but after applying these changes it can, meaning that we now have objects providing the reports to us.
Changing the excel_spreadsheet_manager class to enable instantiation
Next, we’ll do for local static class excel_spreadsheet_manager the same thing we just did for each of the local static report classes, but as you’ll soon see, this change is a bit more involved. Start by doing the following:
- Remove the qualifier abstract from its class definition statement
- Change the definition of its methods from static methods to instance methods by replacing “class-methods” with “methods”.
- Change the definition of the private attribute excel from a static attribute to an instance attribute by replacing “class-data” with “data”.
A syntax check now will fail on the call to method copy_table_to_excel_worksheet in method produce_report of class flight_report. Since class excel_spreadsheet_manager no longer has static methods, these methods no longer can be invoked via the class name, but more to the point is that to invoke the methods of class excel_spreadsheet_manager we now need an instance reference to it. To facilitate this, change the signature for produce_report in class flight_report so that it now accepts a second importing parameter as a reference to an instance of excel_spreadsheet_manager, as in:
methods : produce_report
importing
row_count
type data_exchangeable=>row_counter
excel_spreadsheet_manager
type ref to excel_spreadsheet_manager
raising
zcx_excel
.Then change method produce_report of class flight_report so that the call to method name copy_table_to_excel_worksheet is preceded not by a class selector (=>) but by an instance selector (->), as in:
call method excel_spreadsheet_manager->copy_table_to_excel_worksheet
exporting
source_stack = flight_stack
source_description = 'Flights'.Apply this same relative change to both classes carrier_report and booking_report. Afterward, change method drive_process to:
- include a new reference variable to class excel_spreadsheet_manager
- include this new reference variable on the create object statement
- adjust all the calls to methods produce_report to include the now-mandatory second exporting parameter
- change the call to method send_excel_via_email of class excel_spreadsheet_manager so that the call to this method is preceded not by a class selector (=>) but by an instance selector (->)
The code in method drive_process now should look like this:
method drive_process.
data : flight_report type ref to flight_report
, carrier_report type ref to carrier_report
, booking_report type ref to booking_report
, excel_spreadsheet_manager
type ref to excel_spreadsheet_manager
.
create object: flight_report
, carrier_report
, booking_report
, excel_spreadsheet_manager
.
try.
call method flight_report->produce_report exporting row_count = row_count
excel_spreadsheet_manager = excel_spreadsheet_manager.
call method carrier_report->produce_report exporting row_count = row_count
excel_spreadsheet_manager = excel_spreadsheet_manager.
call method booking_report->produce_report exporting row_count = row_count
excel_spreadsheet_manager = excel_spreadsheet_manager.
catch zcx_excel ##NO_HANDLER.
endtry.
call method excel_spreadsheet_manager->send_excel_via_email exporting recipient = recipient.
endmethod.Now a syntax check will pass again. Executing the program at this point should prove that it still works as before.
What we’ve done here is to change class excel_spreadsheet_manager from a static class to an instance class, but just look at all the other changes this required:
- We now create an instance of this class in method drive_process.
- We now pass the reference to this instance on the signatures for the produce_report methods of classes flight_report, carrier_report and booking_report.
- In the produce_report methods of classes flight_report, carrier_report and booking_report, we now invoke the method copy_table_to_excel_worksheet using the instance passed in through the signature of produce_report.
- We now invoke method send_excel_via_email using the excel_spreadsheet_manager reference variable defined and populated in method drive_process.
Dependency Injection
One of the notable things about the changes we’ve made here is that the produce_report methods of classes flight_report, carrier_report and booking_report have had their signatures changed to accept a reference to an instance of a class on an importing parameter. In this case the instance is one of type reference to excel_spreadsheet_manager. When excel_spreadsheet_manager was defined as a static class its methods could be reached from anywhere within the program simply by prefixing the method calls with the class qualifier, as in:
call method excel_spreadsheet_manager=>copy_table_to_excel_worksheet . . .Notice the use of the class selector (=>) in the statement above instead of the instance selector (->) now being used for such calls. Now that excel_spreadsheet_manager is no longer a static class, the produce_report methods no longer would have had access to what is now an instance of this class. Accordingly, the produce_report methods of classes flight_report, carrier_report and booking_report need to have an instance of class excel_spreadsheet_manager made available to them. With our new process, the instance on which the produce_report method is dependent is injected into the method through its signature. This concept is known as dependency injection. There are other ways to inject dependencies into instances of classes, but when a method signature provides an object on which the method depends, it is known as parameter injection, a specific type of dependency injection. In short, dependency injection is in effect when a class or method is provided with a dependency it needs to satisfy its processing.

What’s next?
There remain other concepts of object-oriented programming for us to explore using this simple example program. Currently all the three report classes contain much duplicated code. The next step is to refactor the program so that these three report classes can inherit code common to all of them. This will be covered in the blog representing part 3 of this 6-part series Getting comfortable using the Object-Oriented design model with ABAP.
