ABAP code example for Function Module ACL_ACT_GROUP_CREATE

The ABAP code below is a full code listing to execute function module ACL_ACT_GROUP_CREATE including all data declarations. The code uses the latest in-line data DECLARATION SYNTAX but I have included an ABAP code snippet at the end to show how declarations would look using the original method of declaring data variables up front. This will allow you to compare and fully understand the new inline method. Please note some of the newer syntax such as the @DATA is not available until a later 4.70 service pack (SP8).

DATA:
ld_error  
 
 TYPE ACLERROR
,
it_activities  
 
 TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF ACLACTVTY,"TABLES PARAM
wa_activities
 
 LIKE LINE OF it_activities
.


DATA(ld_activity_group) = 'Check type of data required'.

DATA(ld_name) = 'Check type of data required'.

DATA(ld_description) = 'Check type of data required'.
 

"populate fields of struture and append to itab

ABAP code to compare 7.40 inline data declaration with original syntax

The below ABAP code uses the older none in-line data declarations. This allows you to see the coding differences/benefits of the later inline syntax. It may also be useful if you are using an older version of SAP as some of the newer syntax above, such as the @DATA is not available until 4.70 EHP 8.

DATA:

ld_error
 
 TYPE ACLERROR ,
ld_activity_group
 
 TYPE ACL_ACTGRP ,
it_activities
 
 TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF ACLACTVTY ,
wa_activities
 
 LIKE LINE OF it_activities,
ld_name
 
 TYPE ACL_AGRNAM ,
ld_description
 
 TYPE ACL_AGRDSC .


ld_activity_group = 'Check type of data required'. 

"populate fields of struture and append to itab
append wa_activities to it_activities.
ld_name = 'Check type of data required'.
ld_description = 'Check type of data required'.
