ABENABAP_LANGUAGE_INCLUDE - ABAP LANGUAGE INCLUDE

Include Programs

Include programs are used to split ABAP source code into individual repository objects. An ABAP program can be created in the program attributes using the program type include program. Include programs do not need to contain program-initiating statements and cannot be generated independently of the ABAP compiler. Instead, include programs can be included in compilation units using the statement INCLUDE.

An include program must contain complete statements. It can include other include programs but not it cannot include itself. An include program does not need to contain complete processing blocks.

Do not use include programs multiple times

Notes

• For the global declaration part of an ABAP program, a special top include is available which is included in the compilation of individual include programs of a program.

• Master programs such as class pools or function pools are automatically organized into include programs by the ABAP Workbench.
