can v tell from a given bapi, whether a particular bapi is a class method or an instance method by observing the code?

If you are looking for difference between instance & static method then

Instance method is defined using the METHODS statement, but the static (class method) is defined using the CLASS-METHODS statement.

I think bapis which create an instance of an SAP business object type are of type class methods like Create() and CreateFromData().

But bapis which have Change( ) Delete( ) and Undelete( ) Cancel ( ) are treated as changes in an existing instance of an SAP business object type are referred as instance method
