ABAP code example for Function Module CAT_VARI_EDIT





The ABAP code below is a full code listing to execute function module CAT_VARI_EDIT 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_subrc    TYPE SY-SUBRC
,
ld_varnt    TYPE CATP-VARID
,
it_fcatp    TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF CATP,"TABLES PARAM
wa_fcatp  LIKE LINE OF it_fcatp
.



 

SELECT single ABLNR 
  FROM CATA 
  INTO @DATA(ld_ablnr).



DATA(ld_show) = some text here


DATA(ld_dtyp) = some text here


DATA(ld_only) = some text here
 

"populate fields of struture and append to itab
append wa_fcatp to it_fcatp.
.

CALL FUNCTION 'CAT_VARI_EDIT'
* EXPORTING
*   ablnr =                      ld_ablnr
*   show =                       ld_show
*   dtyp =                       ld_dtyp

  IMPORTING
    subrc =                      ld_subrc

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_subrc  TYPE SY-SUBRC ,
ld_ablnr  TYPE CATA-ABLNR ,
it_fcatp  TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF CATP ,
wa_fcatp  LIKE LINE OF it_fcatp,
ld_varnt  TYPE CATP-VARID ,
ld_show  TYPE RSCAT-B_SHOW ,
ld_dtyp  TYPE RSTTF-DTYP ,
ld_only  TYPE RSCAT-VARIANT_B .





SELECT single ABLNR 
  FROM CATA 
  INTO ld_ablnr.
 

"populate fields of struture and append to itab
append wa_fcatp to it_fcatp.

ld_show = some text here

ld_dtyp = some text here

ld_only = some text here
