hi

good

To use the Persistence Service for objects, the classes of these objects must be created as persistent classes in the Class Builder. The term persistent class does not imply that a class is persistent. (As a template for objects, every class is persistent). Rather, it means that the objects of that class and their state are managed by the Persistence Service. For example, the objects of these classes are instantiated in the ABAP program with a method of the Persistence Service, which ensures that the initialization is correct (not with the usual CREATE OBJECT statement). When the Class Builder creates a persistent class, it automatically generates an associated class, known as the class actor or class agent, whose methods manage the objects of persistent classes. As well as their identity, persistent classes can contain key attributes, which allow the Persistence Service to ensure that the content of each persistent object is unique.
