ABAP objects - what a headache!!!

[Former Member]

Howdy,

Objects is really getting me down.

I had a program that worked really nicely when I'd created the classes locally within the program.

Now I've created the class globally via SE24 and whenever I try to run the program I get a dump beacuse of a null value (?).

Anyway I think this is occuring because I have this code:

DATA: r_html TYPE REF TO zzcl_http_assign.

and then when I try to create the object via:

CREATE object r_html.

I get an error saying that:

"You cannot create an instance of the class "ZZCL_HTTP_ASSIGN" outside the class. -"

Anyone have any idea what is going on????

In SE24, under the properties tab, make sure that the instantiation field is set to "Public".

Also, I know that it is a little confusing now(ABAP objects), but keep working with it, eventually it will just click. Good Luck.
