ABAP code example for Function Module BICS_PROV_GET_VERSION





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

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_release  TYPE INT4 ,
ld_i_java_version  TYPE INT4 ,
it_i_t_statistic_info  TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF RSSTA_S_EVENTINPUT ,
wa_i_t_statistic_info  LIKE LINE OF it_i_t_statistic_info,
ld_e_support_package  TYPE INT4 ,
ld_e_version  TYPE INT4 ,
ld_e_java_version_supported  TYPE RS_BOOL ,
ld_e_max_message_type  TYPE SYMSGTY .




ld_i_java_version = 'Check type of data required'. 

"populate fields of struture and append to itab
append wa_i_t_statistic_info to it_i_t_statistic_info.
