ABAP code example for Function Module DB_CLEAR_TABLE_PARAMETER

The ABAP code below is a full code listing to execute function module DB_CLEAR_TABLE_PARAMETER including all data declarations.

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_dbsys
 
 TYPE SY-DBSYS ,
ld_source
 
 TYPE RSX02DB-SOURCE ,
ld_source
 
 TYPE RSX02DB-SOURCE ,
ld_tabname
 
 TYPE DD02L-TABNAME ,
ld_tabname
 
 TYPE DD02L-TABNAME .


ld_dbsys = 'some text here'.

ld_source = some text here

ld_source = some text here

SELECT single TABNAME 
  FROM DD02L 
  INTO ld_tabname.


SELECT single TABNAME
