Understanding Instance and Static Components

• Go to transaction code SE38.

• Enter the program name start's with Y or Z<program name > and click on create button.

• Enter the Title , select attribute type as executable program and click on Save .

• To declare the object.

                     DATA : <object name > Type  <Class name >.

• Ex : obj type ZCL_FIRST_CLASS.

• To create  the object.

                 CREATE OBJECT < object name> .

• Ex : Create object OBJ.

• We can call instance attributes using ,

            <object name >-><attribute name>.

• We can call static attribute using,

                  <object name >-><attribute name>.

                          

                               or

                  <Class name >=><attribute name>.

• Call attributes default value's.

• Save -> Check->Activate.
• Execute.

• Change the values of instance and static public attributes .

• Save ->Check->Attributes.
• Execute.

• Now call another object attributes.

• Save -> Check -> Activate.

Note : Whenever static attribute's changes it's value , then  static attribute' s changes it's initial value.
