Binding

The class

" @keywords generic data reference create data ddic dynamic itab rtti handle selkz
" @summary The row type is built at runtime from a DDIC name plus a SELKZ selection flag (RTTI, TYPE HANDLE), and the generic data reference is bound straight into the view - editable, multi-selectable, and it survives the roundtrip back to ABAP.
