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_metaparameter
 
 TYPE CATS_MY_TABLE_METAPARAMETER ,
ld_metadetail
 
 TYPE CATS_MY_TABLE_METADETAIL ,
ld_genericrecord
 
 TYPE CATS_MY_TABLE_GENERICRECORD .


ld_metaparameter = 'Check type of data required'.
ld_metadetail = 'Check type of data required'.
ld_genericrecord = 'Check type of data required'.
