ABAP code example for Function Module HELP_GET_VALUES





The ABAP code below is a full code listing to execute function module HELP_GET_VALUES 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_returncode    TYPE STRING
,
it_fields    TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF HELPVAL,"TABLES PARAM
wa_fields  LIKE LINE OF it_fields
.




DATA(ld_cucol) = '123 '.

DATA(ld_curow) = '123 '.

DATA(ld_popup_title) = 'some text here'.
 

"populate fields of struture and append to itab
append wa_fields to it_fields.
.

CALL FUNCTION 'HELP_GET_VALUES'
  EXPORTING
*   cucol =                      ld_cucol
*   curow =                      ld_curow
    popup_title =                ld_popup_title
  IMPORTING

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_returncode  TYPE STRING ,
ld_cucol  TYPE SY-CUCOL ,
it_fields  TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF HELPVAL ,
wa_fields  LIKE LINE OF it_fields,
ld_curow  TYPE SY-CUROW ,
ld_popup_title  TYPE STRING .




ld_cucol = '123 '. 

"populate fields of struture and append to itab
append wa_fields to it_fields.
ld_curow = '123 '.
ld_popup_title = 'some text here'.
