What is namesapace?

Namespace are used to identify the Customer development and the SAP developmet .

*Why we are using the namespace...?

we have got different namespace say 'Z' or 'Y' for Customer namespace and other then those will fall under sap namespace.

There are lots of importance of namespace out of which one imp. aspect of namespace comes into picture when a company goes for an upgradation say from 4.0 to 4.7c ..etc.

At that amount of time one has to see the customer development which is been done on the earlier version (differentiate using namespace) , so as to have similar functionality on the upgraded one.

Inorder to know more you can explore through the difference between Enhancements and Modification which is mainly related to the name space only.

Enhancement - Customer namespace

Modification - Sap namespace.

SAP has reserved name ranges for customer objects and SAP objects. Use these customer name

ranges to make sure that your objects are not overwritten by SAP objects during the import of

corrections or an upgrade.

Only use the customer name ranges. If you do not keep to the name ranges for customer objects you

may lose your development objects.

SAP delivers a few system objects with names that fall within the customer name range. These objects

already existed when the customer name range was extended from YY/ZZ to Y/Z.

These objects are listed in table TDKZ.

You can reserve and use exclusive namespaces based on the SAP standard for central group

development or for the development of your own products (see Development in Reserved Namespaces).

Definition

Namespace is a string or a collection of strings, prefixed to a development object created in any development environment other than SAP.

Use

It is used to ensure that the names you specify while modeling development objects using the Mobile Application Studio, are unique. The namespace feature is useful in the following cases:

· When you get Mobile Application Repository (MAR) upgrades from SAP.

· To merge the current MAR wiith another MAR.

· To debug a mobile client application.

· To provide unique object names to the application frameworks.
