list of widely used ABAP classes

[Former Member]

Hello dear forum gurus.

Im trying to find information about the classes that can handle common tasks, ie. I've found classes for ALV, for FRONTEND, etc..

I'm wondering if there is any place (similar to the java class library) where I can find all these classes, or can someone tell me wich are the most used classes (or useful).

Best regards from mexico

Go to Tcode SE24 to see all the classes system wide.

i am not quite sure about getting info on most used classes but you can ask basis to help you. There are transactions to get usage reports for transactions but not sure about particular class.

SE84 is a good place for listing Classes (Repository Information System) and other development objects as well. Another useful one would be the Reuse Library (SE83). You can review the code in there and borrow from SAP's use of classes in there.

You can always search from SE24 or SE84. Classes in ABAP start with CL_ so start search like CL_FTP for ftp and for frontend, CL_Front and so on...

Once you find the class, you can always search in google or help.sap.com about the class.
