ABAP Objects - Percent of WF'ers using ABAP OO? ( zip zilch nada ZERO people using ABAP OO with WF? )

[Gretchen Roberts]

I use the OO exits!  They are great!  There is also a ton of stuff you can 
accomplish in the binding when you call OO methods to populate container 
values.   So many background tasks can be avoided!

For new requests I almost always create classes instead of using BOR 
objects.   I do experience a small amount of guilt when I re-invent the 
wheel--but it is a much better wheel.   Mostly my workflows are a combination of 
both--many tasks calling old BOR methods and many calling OO methods.  Too time 
consuming to go back and rewrite everything but when I need to do generic work I 
will always use my new generic OO methods.

Hey Wug'ers

Honestly, I really expected a few more results on WF folks using ABAP OO. I see 
so much potential for adding it to the skill sets. Even if you don't use full 
ABAP Objects, just using a simple Program Exit class ( in a very simple class 
even ) has been useful for me. Program Exits, you can catch internal Task 
events. Like, if someone Logically Deletes a WF, without it, it is just done. 
With something like zcl_CompleteProcess hung off the template, will still 
execute the code. Very useful for me. 


Humph! Interesting.
