ABAP code example for Function Module GCFC_ATTRIBUTE_READ





The ABAP code below is a full code listing to execute function module GCFC_ATTRIBUTE_READ 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_e_gcchwa  TYPE GCTP1_GCCHWA_TYPE ,
ld_e_gccftab  TYPE GCTP1_GCCFTAB_TYPE ,
ld_e_gccgtab  TYPE GCTP1_GCCGTAB_TYPE .

DATA(ld_i_home) = 'Check type of data required'.
DATA(ld_i_objart) = 'Check type of data required'.
DATA(ld_i_attribute) = 'Check type of data required'. . CALL FUNCTION 'GCFC_ATTRIBUTE_READ' EXPORTING i_home = ld_i_home i_objart = ld_i_objart * i_attribute = ld_i_attribute IMPORTING e_gcchwa = ld_e_gcchwa e_gccftab = ld_e_gccftab e_gccgtab = ld_e_gccgtab EXCEPTIONS ERROR = 1 .

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_e_gcchwa  TYPE GCTP1_GCCHWA_TYPE ,
ld_i_home  TYPE GCTP1_HOME_TYPE ,
ld_e_gccftab  TYPE GCTP1_GCCFTAB_TYPE ,
ld_i_objart  TYPE GCTP1_OBJART_TYPE ,
ld_e_gccgtab  TYPE GCTP1_GCCGTAB_TYPE ,
ld_i_attribute  TYPE GCTP1_ATTRIBUT_TYPE .

ld_i_home = 'Check type of data required'.
ld_i_objart = 'Check type of data required'.
ld_i_attribute = 'Check type of data required'.
