ABAP code example for Function Module DD_CONCATENATE_LOGS

The ABAP code below is a full code listing to execute function module DD_CONCATENATE_LOGS 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).

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_target
 
 TYPE DDMASS-LOGNAME ,
it_parts
 
 TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF DDPRH ,
wa_parts
 
 LIKE LINE OF it_parts,
ld_delete_parts
 
 TYPE CHAR1 ,
ld_generic
 
 TYPE CHAR1 ,
ld_device
 
 TYPE DDMASS-DEVICE .



ld_target = some text here 

"populate fields of struture and append to itab
append wa_parts to it_parts.
ld_delete_parts = 'Check type of data required'.
ld_generic = 'Check type of data required'.
