ABAP code example for Function Module CALENDAR_GET_TIMESTAMP





The ABAP code below is a full code listing to execute function module CALENDAR_GET_TIMESTAMP 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_calendar_date    TYPE SYST-DATUM
,
ld_calendar_time    TYPE SYST-UZEIT
.

CALL FUNCTION 'CALENDAR_GET_TIMESTAMP'
  IMPORTING
    calendar_date =              ld_calendar_date
    calendar_time =              ld_calendar_time
  EXCEPTIONS
    BUFFER_MISSING =             1
    DIRECTORY_OVERFLOW =         2
    POOL_OVERFLOW =              3
    .  "  CALENDAR_GET_TIMESTAMP

IF SY-SUBRC EQ 0.
  "All OK
ELSEIF SY-SUBRC EQ 1. "Exception
  "Add code for exception here
ELSEIF SY-SUBRC EQ 2. "Exception
  "Add code for exception here
ELSEIF SY-SUBRC EQ 3. "Exception

ENDIF.







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_calendar_date  TYPE SYST-DATUM ,
ld_calendar_time  TYPE SYST-UZEIT .
