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_deleted
 
 TYPE SEOX_BOOLEAN ,
ld_cifkey
 
 TYPE SEOCLSKEY ,
ld_typkey
 
 TYPE SEOCMPKEY .


ld_cifkey = 'Check type of data required'.
ld_typkey = 'Check type of data required'.
