Double click on the object's name in the abap editor, and you will the data declaration of the object :

data: l_object type ref to zcl_class.

ZCL_CLASS is the requested class.

I wand to get the class name at runtime. I have a variable which carries the reference of some object. From this object I want to find the name of the class to which the object refers.

Hi Jenish,

Please check the static public method CF_ISSR_BASI_OBJECT=>GET_CLASSNAME.

You need to pass the object instance to this method to get the class name.

Hope this helps.

Thanks,

Rashmi.

Hello Jenish

Since you need to know runtime information you should use the appropriate <b>RTTI </b>classes.

Either you use class <b>CL_ABAP_CLASSDESCR</b> or you could use the following sample coding:

*&---------------------------------------------------------------------*
*& Report  ZUS_SDN_RUNTIME
*&
*&---------------------------------------------------------------------*
*&
*&
*&---------------------------------------------------------------------*

REPORT  zus_sdn_runtime.


TYPE-POOLS: abap.

DATA:
  gd_class          TYPE abap_abstypename,
*  go_classdescr     type ref to cl_abap_classdescr,
  go_docking        TYPE REF TO cl_gui_docking_container.


START-OF-SELECTION.

  CREATE OBJECT go_docking.

  gd_class = cl_abap_classdescr=>get_class_name( go_docking ).

  WRITE: / 'Class', gd_class.


END-OF-SELECTION.

Regards

Uwe
