Hi,

i want to know if is it possible to create a file with constants which can be used for all pages of a bsp application (globals constants) ? Or is there another way to do this ?

    Hello,

    your could define constants as attributes in your application class.

    How do you like this?

      One way is as constants of the application class. However, constants can be defined on <b>any</b> class. So just create a small class, call it CL_MY_CONSTANTS, and define all the constants on that class. You can also define constants on interfaces. For an example, see IF_BSP_WRITER.

      Alternatively, just define the constants inside a page fragment.

      <%
  constants CO_RED   type C value 'R'.
  constants CO_GREEN type C value 'G'.
  constants CO_BLUE  type C value 'B'.
%>

      Now you can include this page fragment in all pages (effectively expanded inline) and just refer to the constants.

      <%@include file="myConstants.htm"%>
<%=CO_RED%>
