Further Changes in ABAP Release 6.10 ITOC
ABAP_MODIFICATION_NN Dynamic Pass by Parameter in CALL FUNCTION
The addition
PARAMETER-TABLE itab can be used to fill the interface of a function module with parameters dynamically. The addition EXCEPTION-TABLE itab is used to pass a table of exceptions to the called function module. At the same time, the number value to be assigned to the system field sy-subrc after the exception is raised is passed to the component VALUE. ABAP_MODIFICATION_NN New Predicate Expression IS BOUND IS BOUND indicates whether a reference variable contains a valid reference. ABAP_MODIFICATION_NN Negated Relational Operators IF NOT (f IS INITIAL) , the spelling IF f IS NOT INITIAL is now possible. This word order is available for the following relational operators: $[NOT$] BETWEEN $[NOT$] IN IS $[NOT$] INITIAL IS $[NOT$] ASSIGNED IS $[NOT$] REQUESTED IS $[NOT$] SUPPLIED ABAP_MODIFICATION_NN Unconditional Exit from a Processing Block RETURN can be used to exit a processing block explicitly. ABAP_MODIFICATION_NN Extended Search in the Keyword Documentation RADIOBUTTON, INNER JOIN, or FOR ALL ENTRIES are now also processed. Until now the system only searched for keywords like DATA or CLASS. If a number of documents contain the same term, the search can be limited in the hit list. A further improvement is that the system displays the found document at the relevant point. ABAP_MODIFICATION_NN Runtime Analysis runtime analysis can also be called within a program unit by calling the methods ON or OFF from the class CL_ABAP_TRACE_SWITCH. Additionally, the measurement restrictions now have an input help for program types and the Tips and Tricks interface has been completely redesigned and now includes a tree structure and a text editor. ABAP_MODIFICATION_NN Calling Predefined Arithmetic Functions arithmetic functions can be used at the same positions as functional methods. The following cases are supported: Source fields of the MOVE statement Arithmetic expressions of the COMPUTE statement Logical expressions The CASE statement of the CASE control structure The WHEN statement of the CASE control structure The WHERE condition in the LOOP AT statement ABAP_MODIFICATION_NN Transformation of XML Data into ABAP Variables CALL TRANSFORMATION statement, which enables the transformation of XML data into ABAP variable content. The following transformations are possible: XML to ABAP ABAP to XML ABAP to ABAP XML to XML ABAP_MODIFICATION_NN Displaying the Generation Limits in the Program Check Program -> Check -> Generation Limits in the ABAP Editor menu, the system displays the load size and the available kernel resources for the selected program. ABAP_MODIFICATION_NN Increase in Line Length in ABAP Editor ABAP_MODIFICATION_NN Enhancement of the MESSAGE Statement MESSAGE msg TYPE t is a new in the statement MESSAGE. It produces direct output of character strings or other strings. This option is designed for exception classes that have exception texts of data type string. DISPLAY LIKE can also be used to modify the icons in the display of the message. ABAP_MODIFICATION_NN Displaying Exceptions for Runtime Errors runtime errors now includes the columns Name of Runtime Error and Exception. The same fields are also displayed and explained in the short dump, immediately after an uncaught runtime error. ABAP_MODIFICATION_NN Separate Logical Units of Work for Application and Generation LUW), generation is started in a separate work process when the program is used. The program is generated in the same work process only if no other work process is free. COMMIT WORK , since this may have caused inconsistencies in the background processing data. The separation of application and generation now ensures that a program is available to other applications immediately after it is generated. ABAP_MODIFICATION_NN Minimum and Maximum Values for Elementary Data Types CL_ABAP_EXCEPTIONAL_VALUES provides the methods GET_MAX_VALUE and GET_MIN_VALUE, which are used to establish the value ranges of the elementary data types. ABAP_MODIFICATION_NN Name for a Component in the Structure Buffer < ASSIGN COMPONENT to access components of a Dictionary structure, then up to now the statement DESCRIBE FIELD ... HELP-ID returned the name of the corresponding data element. The name of the component of the dictionary structure is now returned instead. The following program now produces the value TRDIR-NAME instead of PROGRAMM. Example ABAP Coding ABAP_MODIFICATION_NN Reading a Program Title READ TEXTPOOL. For performance and buffering reasons, the program title is now read from the table TRDIRT. ABAP_MODIFICATION_NN New Medium for Data Clusters SHARED MEMORY has been added to the statements EXPORT and IMPORT. Unlike the variant SHARED BUFFER, whose memory is automatically modified after a displacement, memories must be managed explicitly if this type of repository is used. To do this, the statement DELETE FROM SHARED MEMORY or a method of the class CL_ABAP_EXPIMP_SHMEM can be used. ABAP_MODIFICATION_NN Selecting and Deleting Data Clusters CL_ABAP_EXPIMP_MEM CL_ABAP_EXPIMP_SHMEM CL_ABAP_EXPIMP_SHBUF CL_ABAP_EXPIMP_DB ABAP_MODIFICATION_NN New Additions for INSERT REPORT INSERT REPORT: ... KEEPING DIRECTORY ENTRY ... DIRECTORY ENTRY trdir ... UNICODE ENABLING uc ... FIXED-POINT ARITHMETIC fp ... PROGRAM TYPE pt ... MAXIMUM WIDTH INTO w
