ABAP code example for Function Module J_2GRST





The ABAP code below is a full code listing to execute function module J_2GRST 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_e_rc  TYPE SY-SUBRC ,
ld_e_dsdrc  TYPE SY-SUBRC ,
ld_e_msg  TYPE J_2GLPTXT-LINE ,
it_t_statinf  TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF J_2GLPTXT,"TABLES PARAM
wa_t_statinf  LIKE LINE OF it_t_statinf .


SELECT single DEVID
FROM J_2GLPDSD
INTO @DATA(ld_i_devid).


"populate fields of struture and append to itab
append wa_t_statinf to it_t_statinf. . CALL FUNCTION 'J_2GRST' EXPORTING i_devid = ld_i_devid IMPORTING e_rc = ld_e_rc e_dsdrc = ld_e_dsdrc e_msg = ld_e_msg * TABLES * t_statinf = it_t_statinf . " J_2GRST
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_e_rc  TYPE SY-SUBRC ,
ld_i_devid  TYPE J_2GLPDSD-DEVID ,
it_t_statinf  TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF J_2GLPTXT ,
wa_t_statinf  LIKE LINE OF it_t_statinf,
ld_e_dsdrc  TYPE SY-SUBRC ,
ld_e_msg  TYPE J_2GLPTXT-LINE .


SELECT single DEVID
FROM J_2GLPDSD
INTO ld_i_devid.


"populate fields of struture and append to itab
append wa_t_statinf to it_t_statinf.
