What is ABAP behavior pool in SAP (BC-ESI-RAP - RESTful ABAP Programming Model)?

SAP Term: ABAP behavior pool

• Component: BC-ESI-RAP

• Component Name: RESTful ABAP Programming Model

• Description: ABP for short. A special class pool for an ABAP behavior implementation. A behavior pool is based on a CDS behavior definition. The name of the global class of a behavior pool is usually prefixed with BP_ but does not implement the behavior itself. The behavior implementation is coded in local ABP handler classes and ABP saver classes in the CCIMP include of the behavior pool. These classes implement the unmanaged RAP BO provider that is called by the RAP runtime engine when the RAP BO is accessed.

• Key Concepts: 
  The ABAP behavior pool is a component of the BC-ESI-RAP RESTful ABAP Programming Model. It is a collection of reusable ABAP classes and methods that can be used to create RESTful services. The behavior pool provides a set of predefined behaviors that can be used to quickly and easily create RESTful services. 
  
  How to use it: 
  The ABAP behavior pool can be used to quickly and easily create RESTful services. To use the behavior pool, you must first create an ABAP class that implements the behavior pool interface. This class will contain the logic for your service. Once the class is created, you can then register it with the behavior pool and it will be available for use in your service. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When creating an ABAP class that implements the behavior pool interface, it is important to ensure that all of the methods are properly implemented. This will ensure that your service works as expected. Additionally, it is important to ensure that all of the parameters are properly defined so that they can be used in your service.
