Assigning References This section discusses the assignments and special statements that set the references (or pointers) used in data references and field symbols.
Setting Reference Variables>
Setting Field Symbols> When using field symbols and data references that contain references to data objects, the following should be noted:
In a regular assignment between field symbols, as occurs in an assignment of data objects>, each field symbol is handled as a dereferenced pointer (value semantics>).
In a regular assignment between data references, as occurs in an up cast> or down cast>>, the references are copied (reference semantics>). The corresponding rules can be found in the assignment rules for reference variables >.
ABAP_PGL Use field symbols and data references in appropriate ways>
Note For the dynamic data objects > (strings, internal tables, and boxed component>s>) which are also managed internally using references, value semantics apply. This means that the internal management is not visible for the developers.
