ABAP code example for Function Module GET_OBJECT_INFORMATION





The ABAP code below is a full code listing to execute function module GET_OBJECT_INFORMATION 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_clidep    TYPE OBJH-CLIDEP
,
ld_objcateg    TYPE OBJH-OBJCATEG
,
ld_objtransp    TYPE OBJH-OBJTRANSP
,
ld_viewname    TYPE TSTATCP-VIEWNAME
,
it_t_objsub    TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF OBJSUB,"TABLES PARAM
wa_t_objsub  LIKE LINE OF it_t_objsub
.



 

SELECT single OBJECTTYPE 
  FROM OBJH 
  INTO @DATA(ld_objecttype).

 

SELECT single OBJECTNAME 
  FROM OBJH 
  INTO @DATA(ld_objectname).

 

"populate fields of struture and append to itab
append wa_t_objsub to it_t_objsub.
.

CALL FUNCTION 'GET_OBJECT_INFORMATION'
  EXPORTING
    objecttype =                 ld_objecttype
    objectname =                 ld_objectname
  IMPORTING

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_clidep  TYPE OBJH-CLIDEP ,
ld_objecttype  TYPE OBJH-OBJECTTYPE ,
it_t_objsub  TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF OBJSUB ,
wa_t_objsub  LIKE LINE OF it_t_objsub,
ld_objcateg  TYPE OBJH-OBJCATEG ,
ld_objectname  TYPE OBJH-OBJECTNAME ,
ld_objtransp  TYPE OBJH-OBJTRANSP ,
ld_viewname  TYPE TSTATCP-VIEWNAME .





SELECT single OBJECTTYPE 
  FROM OBJH 
  INTO ld_objecttype.
 

"populate fields of struture and append to itab
append wa_t_objsub to it_t_objsub.

SELECT single OBJECTNAME 
  FROM OBJH 
  INTO ld_objectname.
