abas-ERP: AJO: Getting field meaning

I have a TypedField<CustomerEditor> field and want to get the meaning of a field in the database. But what I actually get is the fieldname like "addr" with field.getName().

Is there a class or anything I have to import to get this information?

As mentioned in an other answer, the EDProtocol is underlying AJO. EDP does not support a description info when changing fields (when applying GFV).

However, you can read the "vartab" respectively the infosystem declarations to get the meaning.

The only way i can imagine is getting the Value by "getTYPE"-functions (getString, getDouble, ...) of the CustomerEditor.
Imagine head is a correctly loaded CustomerEditor object:

TypedField<CustomerEditor> addrField = CustomerEditor.META.addr;
String addrString = head.getString(addrField);

If you want to get all values of a list of TypedFields you always have to differentiate between the sveral types.
Maybe this function can help you, but I never tryed myself:

addrField.getErpTypeInfo().getDataType()

I will try out some alternatives and report my results here.
