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_head
 
 TYPE THEAD ,
it_line
 
 TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF STRING ,
wa_line
 
 LIKE LINE OF it_line,
ld_no_masterlang
 
 TYPE DOKIL-MASTERLANG ,
ld_state
 
 TYPE DOKHL-DOKSTATE ,
ld_typ
 
 TYPE DOKHL-TYP ,
ld_version
 
 TYPE DOKHL-DOKVERSION .


ld_head = 'Check type of data required'. 

"populate fields of struture and append to itab
append wa_line to it_line.

SELECT single MASTERLANG 
  FROM DOKIL 
  INTO ld_no_masterlang.


SELECT single DOKSTATE
