Magic and a full class table

[pedrocavaco]

Hi,

Today I crossed paths with a humble table.

Looks like SE11 enabled redirects to the class builder if the class/table name is less than 16.

BUG reported and shared.

Pedro,

Both, your query and the way you posted the query with a video are very interesting.

Does new SCN supports video grabs too while posting a query ?

It redirects if it is a real class - for example try CL_SALV_TABLE.

It also redirects appropriately to views, structures, data elements, etc.... I don't think it is a bug, but a rather convenient hidden feature.

Hi Raghu,

Views, structures and data elements are dictionary components and so it makes sense the redirection on that range, the case above represents a problem since you can't create the table with the same name if the class exists.

Exactly,"you can't create the table with the same name if the class exists"!

And this is not a bug but a feature.

Dictionary types and classes/interfaces are both global types and belong to one namespace!
