ABAP code example for Function Module ACAC_FIELD_LAYOUT_SET

The ABAP code below is a full code listing to execute function module ACAC_FIELD_LAYOUT_SET 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_ed_node_text  
 
 TYPE LVC_VALUE
.


DATA(ld_is_object_key) = 'Check type of data required'.


DATA(ld_id_field_name) = some text here

DATA(ld_id_tree_variant) = 'Check type of data required'.

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_ed_node_text
 
 TYPE LVC_VALUE ,
ld_is_object_key
 
 TYPE ACAC_TREE_STRUCTURE ,
ld_id_field_name
 
 TYPE DFIES-FIELDNAME ,
ld_id_tree_variant
 
 TYPE ACE_TREEVARI .


ld_is_object_key = 'Check type of data required'.

ld_id_field_name = some text here
ld_id_tree_variant = 'Check type of data required'.
