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_archive_handle
 
 TYPE SY-TABIX ,
it_t_data
 
 TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF TABLE ,
wa_t_data
 
 LIKE LINE OF it_t_data,
ld_record_structure
 
 TYPE ARC_BUFFER-RNAME ,
ld_iv_for_deletion
 
 TYPE ABAP_BOOL .


ld_archive_handle = '123 '. 

"populate fields of struture and append to itab
append wa_t_data to it_t_data.

ld_record_structure = some text here
ld_iv_for_deletion = '123 '.
