ABAP code example for Function Module SWA_STRING_FIND_ALL





The ABAP code below is a full code listing to execute function module SWA_STRING_FIND_ALL 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_number_of_matches    TYPE I
,
ld_matches_are_disjoint    TYPE XFELD
,
it_offset_list    TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF SWAHITLIST,"TABLES PARAM
wa_offset_list  LIKE LINE OF it_offset_list
.




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

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

"populate fields of struture and append to itab
append wa_offset_list to it_offset_list.
.

CALL FUNCTION 'SWA_STRING_FIND_ALL'
  EXPORTING
    input_string =               ld_input_string
    search_pattern =             ld_search_pattern
  IMPORTING
    number_of_matches =          ld_number_of_matches
    matches_are_disjoint =       ld_matches_are_disjoint

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_number_of_matches  TYPE I ,
ld_input_string  TYPE STRING ,
it_offset_list  TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF SWAHITLIST ,
wa_offset_list  LIKE LINE OF it_offset_list,
ld_matches_are_disjoint  TYPE XFELD ,
ld_search_pattern  TYPE STRING .




ld_input_string = 'Check type of data required'. 

"populate fields of struture and append to itab
append wa_offset_list to it_offset_list.
ld_search_pattern = 'Check type of data required'.
