asJSON - Named Reference Variables
Like a regular data object, a named reference variable is represented as an object component that has special content:
The content of the object component of a named reference variable is an object with precisely one object component, called %ref. The content of the object component %ref is a character-like value "#key", where key is the unique key of an object component in the object %heap. The object of an initial reference is empty. The key key of the ABAP runtime environment is set in serializations; in deserializations, any key can be used.
Otherwise the same rules apply to serializations and deserializations of named reference variables as to asXML and the same special cases need to be noted.
