ABAP code example for Function Module DD_GET_STORAGE_CLASS





The ABAP code below is a full code listing to execute function module DD_GET_STORAGE_CLASS 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_rc  TYPE SY-SUBRC ,
ld_tabname  TYPE DD02L-TABNAME ,
ld_tabart  TYPE DD09L-TABART ,
ld_tabkat  TYPE DD09L-TABKAT ,
ld_pufferung  TYPE DD09L-PUFFERUNG ,
ld_bufallow  TYPE DD09L-BUFALLOW ,
ld_roworcolst  TYPE DDROWORCOLST .
