<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Dear David,</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">I am curious. What version of
SAP are you running? This will be factor on whether you need to even
worry about ABAP Classes in workflow. For example we are on Enterprise
4.7 Ext set 2.00 and ABAP Classes are not supported in the workflow environment
fully. :-( ......sigh.</font>

<br><font size=2 face="Trebuchet MS">Hello All,</font><font size=3> </font><font size=2 face="Trebuchet MS"><br>
I've never used workflows with ABAP classes before but I am currently implementing
a SAP standard workflow that uses just such a thing.</font>
<p><font size=2 face="Trebuchet MS">However I need to make changes to this
class.</font><font size=3> </font><font size=2 face="Trebuchet MS"><br>
I have created a subclass and defined it's superclass as the one the workflow
uses.</font><font size=3> </font><font size=2 face="Trebuchet MS"><br>
However, as the attributes of the superclass are Private they seem to be
unavailable to my subclass.</font><font size=3> </font>
<p><font size=2 face="Trebuchet MS">Also when I try to activate my subclass
I get the error</font><font size=3> </font><font size=2 face="Trebuchet MS"><i><br>
"The superclass has the property 'CREATE PRIVATE'. You cannot create
an <br>
instance of the subclass. This can only be changed if the subclass is a
<br>
friend of the superclass. "</i></font><font size=3>
</font>
<p><font size=2 face="Trebuchet MS">Making the subclass a friend of the
superclass would be making a SAP modification.</font><font size=3> </font>
<p><font size=2 face="Trebuchet MS">As there appears to be no delegation
like there are with BOR Types, how are we supposed to use/extend standard
SAP ABAP Classes ?</font>
<p><font size=2 face="Trebuchet MS">Many Thanks</font><font size=3> </font><font size=2 face="Trebuchet MS"><br>
