Result of generating an ABAP program using the ABAP Compiler. The statements in the byte code are connected to C functions. When the ABAP program is executed, the byte code is loaded into the PXA as the program load and interpreted by the ABAP runtime environment (virtual machine), which accesses the corresponding C functions.
