Bottom-Up Development 15.3
Figure 15.8 Creating an External View
Once a view exists in SE11, inside your ABAP code you can define internal tables
based upon the view and do a normal SELECT statement, as in Listing 15.15.
DATA: lt_monsters TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF zev_monstrous_view.
SELECT *
FROM zev_monstrous_view
INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF lt_monsters.

15.3.2 Building and Calling Database Proxies
The first step in the proce s of creating and coding a stored procedure via bottomup
development is to create the proced ure directly inside the SAP HANA development
environment. During the creation of a store d procedure, you need to
specify the import and export parameters and write the SQLScript to retrieve the
data; the code in the stored procedure will look rather like that inside an AMDP
implementation (refer back to Section 15.2 .2). The creation of this stored procedure
in SAP HANA is, of course, not an ABAP task and thus won’t be discussed in
more detail.
