global class
Class that is visible in the whole
AS ABAP. Global classes can only be created with the
Class Builder tool in
class pools and are marked
there using the PUBLIC addition
of the CLASS statement. A class pool can only contain one global class. All global classes of an AS ABAP are stored together with the
global interfaces and the
data types of the ABAP Dictionary in one namespace.
