ABAP code example for Function Module MEREP_READ_SYNCTYPE_OBJ

The ABAP code below is a full code listing to execute function module MEREP_READ_SYNCTYPE_OBJ 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_synctype_obj  
 
 TYPE STRING
.


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

DATA(ld_check_exist) = 'some text here'.
.

CALL FUNCTION 'MEREP_READ_SYNCTYPE_OBJ'
  EXPORTING
    synctype =                   ld_synctype

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_synctype_obj
 
 TYPE STRING ,
ld_synctype
 
 TYPE MEREP_SYNCTYPE ,
ld_check_exist
 
 TYPE MEREP_KEYFLAG .


ld_synctype = 'Check type of data required'.
ld_check_exist = 'some text here'.
