CLASS-EVENTS
Other versions: 7.31 | 7.40 | 7.54
Syntax
CLASS-EVENTS evt [EXPORTING parameters] .
Addition
Effect
This statement declares a static event evt in a class or interface. The
Naming conventions apply to the name evt.
The static event evt can be triggered in all methods of the same class, or
a class that implements the interface, and in the methods of subclasses - if it is visible there - using the RAISE EVENT statement.
Note
An event handler for which a subclass is declared for a static event, which is inherited from a superclass, can only react to this if the event is triggered by a method of the subclass or one of its subclasses. If the event is triggered in a static method of a superclass, it is not handled, even if the method is called in a subclass or if the name of the subclass is specified.
Addition
... EXPORTING parameters
Effect
The EXPORTING addition defines the parameter interface of the event
evt. The syntax and meaning of the
parameters additions correspond with definition of instance events using the EVENTS statement.
Note
Static events have no implicit formal parameter sender.
