OOALV's programs will give you dump when you run it in background you have to start using docking container to avoid that.

HI,

Advantage:

ABAP OOP:

You can customize the Objects

Already more Objects are predefined

JAVA:

Easy to use

Disadvantage:

ABAP:

Very Complicated

Java:

Fully Program

you should write code to create every objects, class

everything

Actually you should restrict the use of NON OO ABAP. Ideally you should also try (where practicable) to replace function modules either by classes or attributes.

You can't obviously re-write the whole of the SAP system especially the older finiancial and HR bits (such has PROVIDE / GET on infotypes) but there is no reason in general why you can't use classes where you would use a "Z" or "Y" function module.

I think the OP was referring to OOABAP in general not specifically the ALV.

I think your reference here is MISLEADING.

There is NO FUNDAMENTAL REASON WHATSOEVER why OO should be complicated or difficult. The only reason it might seem that way is that you are probably very used to "classical" non OO ABAP.

There's alwways a learning curve but once you get the hang of it you can develop applications MUCH MORE SIMPLY AND QUICKLY and what's more with the MINIMUM of errors. Code is also much more maintainable as well.
