Syntax

CREATE OBJECT oref [AREA HANDLE handle] 
                   [ [TYPE class] 

                      [EXPORTING p1 = a1 p2 = a2 ...] 

                      [EXCEPTIONS exc1 = n1 exc2 = n2 ... [OTHERS = n_others]] ] 

                 | [ TYPE (name) 

                     {[EXPORTING p1 = a1 p2 = a2 ...] 

                      [EXCEPTIONS exc1 = n1 exc2 = n2 ... [OTHERS = n_others]]} 

                   | {[PARAMETER-TABLE ptab] 

                      [EXCEPTION-TABLE etab]} ]. 

Effect

Creates an instance of a class and sets the object reference in oref to the object. If the addition TYPE is not specified, oref must be typed with reference to a concrete class and this class is instantiated.

Additions

• AREA HANDLE handle
  Creates a shared object, where a reference to an area handle has to be specified in handle.
• {TYPE class}|{TYPE (name)}
  Statically or dynamically specifies the class of the object that must be more specific than the static type of oref.
• EXPORTING p1 = a1 p2 = a2 ...
  Passes actual parameters a1, a2 ... to input parameters p1, p2, ... of the instance constructor.
• EXCEPTIONS exc1 = n1 exc2 = n2 ...[OTHERS = n_others]
  Assigns return values to non-classed-based exceptions of the instance constructor.
• PARAMETER-TABLE ptab
  Assigns dynamic actual parameters to the formal parameters of the instance constructor using an internal table ptab of the type ABAP_PARMBIND_TAB .
• EXCEPTION-TABLE etab
  Assigns dynamic return values to the not class-based exceptions using an internal table etab of the type ABAP_EXCPBIND _TAB.
