In regards to the previous post ABAP Objects β Access Text from Super Class Text Symbols, one of readers Dirk Wittenberg pointed to me completely different view.

Hi,
Imo SAP has not designed as text-symbols as attributes of the class – hence they can’t be classified as PUBLIC, PRIVATE or PROTECTED.
In fact they belong to the text pool of the particular class pool (http://help.sap.com/abapdocu_731/en/abenclass_pool_glosry.htm) & hence cannot be accessed in sub-classes.
BR,

Well, if I had read what Suhas posted, my vote would be neither!
Thanks Suhas!
Hello Suhas,
I agree that there isn’t any visibility defined to Text Symbols of the Classes. Thus defeating the purpose of OO ABAP. π
