ABAP offers three different operators for declaring string- or char-like-variables
| Symbols | Internal Type | Length | Name |
|---|---|---|---|
| '...' | C | 1-255 Chars | text field literals |
| `...` | CString | 0-255 Chars | text string literals |
| |...| | CString | 0-255 Chars | template literals |
Note that the length-range only applies to hard coded values. Internally CString-variables have arbitrary length while variables of type C always have a fixed length.
