ABAP code example for Function Module CXFAT_CREATE





The ABAP code below is a full code listing to execute function module CXFAT_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_ep_spec    TYPE IF_CXF_XML_ATTRSPEC
.




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

CALL FUNCTION 'CXFAT_CREATE'
  EXPORTING
    i_profile =                  ld_i_profile
  IMPORTING
    ep_spec =                    ld_ep_spec
    .  "  CXFAT_CREATE

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_ep_spec  TYPE IF_CXF_XML_ATTRSPEC ,
ld_i_profile  TYPE CXF_T_XMLATTR_PROFILE .




ld_i_profile = 'Check type of data required'.
