When tables, types (data elements, structures, table types) and views are activated, they are placed at the disposal of the runtime environment in the form of runtime objects. These runtime objects contain the information about the object in a form that is optimal for access by ABAP programs and screens. The runtime objects are buffered so that ABAP programs and screens can access the information relevant to them quickly.
ABAP programs and screens get the information they require about ABAP Dictionary objects from the runtime objects. Changes to ABAP Dictionary objects are determined by comparing the time stamps (see Runtime Objects). Changes to ABAP Dictionary objects therefore become effective in all system components when the objects are activated.
