ABAP code example for Function Module READ_TABLE_BUFFERED





The ABAP code below is a full code listing to execute function module READ_TABLE_BUFFERED 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_e_table_workarea    TYPE STRING
.





DATA(ld_i_table) = some text here


DATA(ld_i_key1) = some text here


DATA(ld_i_key2) = some text here


DATA(ld_i_key3) = some text here


DATA(ld_i_key4) = some text here

DATA(ld_i_value1) = 'some text here'.

DATA(ld_i_value2) = 'some text here'.

DATA(ld_i_value3) = 'some text here'.

DATA(ld_i_value4) = 'some text here'.

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

CALL FUNCTION 'READ_TABLE_BUFFERED'
  EXPORTING
    i_table =                    ld_i_table

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_e_table_workarea  TYPE STRING ,
ld_i_table  TYPE DD02D-TABNAME ,
ld_i_key1  TYPE DD03D-FIELDNAME ,
ld_i_key2  TYPE DD03D-FIELDNAME ,
ld_i_key3  TYPE DD03D-FIELDNAME ,
ld_i_key4  TYPE DD03D-FIELDNAME ,
ld_i_value1  TYPE STRING ,
ld_i_value2  TYPE STRING ,
ld_i_value3  TYPE STRING ,
ld_i_value4  TYPE STRING ,
ld_i_buffer_type  TYPE C .





ld_i_table = some text here
