Introduction of ABAP Daemons
An ABAP Daemon is an instance of an ABAP Daemon class in an ABAP Daemon session. An ABAP Daemon is created again automatically every time a runtime error or a message of type E, A, or X causes it to terminate a program.
Modification 2
Timers for the Non-Blocking Mode
ABAP Timers can be used to define wait times in the non-blocking mode. An ABAP Timer is created by ABAP Timer Manager and handled using ABAP Timer handlers. The associated class and interfaces are CL_ABAP_TIMER_MANAGER, IF_ABAP_TIMER_MANAGER, and IF_ABAP_TIMER_HANDLER.
The new object types replace the previous types CL_APC_TIMER_MANAGER, IF_APC_TIMER_MANAGER, and IF_APC_TIMER_HANDLER.
