ABAP code example for Function Module RPTRA_FORM_LAYOUT_CREATE

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

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_form_name
 
 TYPE T51T5-ALTTF ,
ld_mainform
 
 TYPE T51T5-TXFRM .



SELECT single ALTTF 
  FROM T51T5 
  INTO ld_form_name.


SELECT single TXFRM 
  FROM T51T5
