ABAP code example for Function Module DSYS_OBJECT_PRINT

The ABAP code below is a full code listing to execute function module DSYS_OBJECT_PRINT 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).

"populate fields of struture and append to itab

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_viewname
 
 TYPE DSYAV-VIEWNAME ,
it_module_list
 
 TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF DSYSI_2 ,
wa_module_list
 
 LIKE LINE OF it_module_list,
ld_text_title
 
 TYPE STRING .



SELECT single VIEWNAME 
  FROM DSYAV 
  INTO ld_viewname.
 

"populate fields of struture and append to itab
append wa_module_list to it_module_list.
ld_text_title = 'some text here'.
