ABAP code example for Function Module CUS_TEXT

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

 

SELECT single TDTEXTTYPE 
  FROM TTXOB 
  INTO @DATA(ld_input_format).

 

SELECT single TDTEXTTYPE 
  FROM TTXOB 
  INTO @DATA(ld_alternate_format).


DATA(ld_supported_format) = 'some text here'.
.

CALL FUNCTION 'CUS_TEXT'
  EXPORTING
    input_format =               ld_input_format
    alternate_format =           ld_alternate_format
*   supported_format =           ld_supported_format
    .  "  CUS_TEXT

IF SY-SUBRC EQ 0.
  "All OK
ENDIF.

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_input_format
 
 TYPE TTXOB-TDTEXTTYPE ,
ld_alternate_format
 
 TYPE TTXOB-TDTEXTTYPE ,
ld_supported_format
 
 TYPE STRING .



SELECT single TDTEXTTYPE 
  FROM TTXOB 
  INTO ld_input_format.


SELECT single TDTEXTTYPE 
  FROM TTXOB 
  INTO ld_alternate_format.

ld_supported_format = 'some text here'.
