ABAP code example for Function Module BM_OBJECT_IS_LOCAL

The ABAP code below is a full code listing to execute function module BM_OBJECT_IS_LOCAL 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_is_local  
 
 TYPE UFFLAG
,
ld_e_tadir  
 
 TYPE TADIR
.



DATA(ld_object_type) = some text here

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

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

CALL FUNCTION 'BM_OBJECT_IS_LOCAL'

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_is_local
 
 TYPE UFFLAG ,
ld_object_type
 
 TYPE BMOBJECT-TYPE ,
ld_e_tadir
 
 TYPE TADIR ,
ld_object_id
 
 TYPE ANY ,
ld_devclass
 
 TYPE DEVCLASS .



ld_object_type = some text here
ld_object_id = 'Check type of data required'.
ld_devclass = 'Check type of data required'.
