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_et_attribute
 
 TYPE COMT_ATTRIBUTE_EXT_TAB ,
ld_it_attribute_id
 
 TYPE COMT_ATTR_LONG_ID_TAB ,
ld_et_attribute_t
 
 TYPE COMT_ATTRIBUTE_T_EXT_TAB ,
ld_iv_with_text
 
 TYPE COMT_BOOLEAN .


ld_it_attribute_id = 'Check type of data required'.
ld_iv_with_text = 'Check type of data required'.
