ABAP code example for Function Module BAL_LOG_MSG_READ





The ABAP code below is a full code listing to execute function module BAL_LOG_MSG_READ 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).

ld_e_s_msg  TYPE BAL_S_MSG ,

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_e_s_msg  TYPE BAL_S_MSG ,
ld_i_s_msg_handle  TYPE BALMSGHNDL ,
ld_e_exists_on_db  TYPE BOOLEAN ,
ld_i_langu  TYPE SYLANGU ,
ld_e_txt_msgty  TYPE C ,
ld_e_txt_msgid  TYPE C ,
ld_e_txt_detlevel  TYPE C ,
ld_e_txt_probclass  TYPE C ,
ld_e_txt_msg  TYPE C ,
ld_e_warning_text_not_found  TYPE BOOLEAN .

ld_i_s_msg_handle = 'Check type of data required'.
ld_i_langu = 'Check type of data required'.
