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_bin_filesize  TYPE STRING ,
ld_use_otf_mc_cmd  TYPE C ,
it_otf  TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF ITCOO ,
wa_otf  LIKE LINE OF it_otf,
ld_archive_index  TYPE TOA_DARA ,
it_doctab_archive  TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF DOCS ,
wa_doctab_archive  LIKE LINE OF it_doctab_archive,
it_lines  TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF TLINE ,
wa_lines  LIKE LINE OF it_lines.




ld_use_otf_mc_cmd = 'Check type of data required'. 

"populate fields of struture and append to itab
append wa_otf to it_otf.
ld_archive_index = 'Check type of data required'. 

"populate fields of struture and append to itab
append wa_doctab_archive to it_doctab_archive.
