ABAP code example for Function Module EFG_FORM_CHECK

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

DATA:
ld_y_error  
 
 TYPE EFG00_ERROR_OBJECT
.


DATA(ld_x_form) = 'Check type of data required'.


DATA(ld_x_formclass_call) = some text here

DATA(ld_ref_log) = 'Check type of data required'.
.

CALL FUNCTION 'EFG_FORM_CHECK'
  EXPORTING

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_y_error
 
 TYPE EFG00_ERROR_OBJECT ,
ld_x_form
 
 TYPE EFG00_FORM ,
ld_x_formclass_call
 
 TYPE RFGEN-KENNZX ,
ld_ref_log
 
 TYPE IF_EFG_LOG .


ld_x_form = 'Check type of data required'.

ld_x_formclass_call = some text here
ld_ref_log = 'Check type of data required'.
