Declaring internal tables

why do we declare internal tables in this way
TYPES: BEGIN OF ty_t501t,
END OF ty_t501t.
DATA: gt_list1 TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF ty_list1,
why not this
DATA: BEGIN OF ITAB OCCURS 0,
END OF ITAB.

Hi,
Declaring internal table with a header line decreases performance.
Its better to have internal table without header line and a work area to work with it.
Its improves performance.
Also wen u work with internal table with header line it creates confusion that whether ur working with the header line or body of the internal table.
Also declaring internal table with header line is obsolete one.

Simple command to refresh data of all declared internal tables & variables!

Hi All,
I have declared many internal tables & variables in my program in declaration include.
Is there any Simple command which can refresh data of all declared internal tables & variables!
Instead of clearing & refreshing each i.table & variable i want to use single command to refresh data.
Is this possible!
Thanks in advance.
Thanks,
Deep.

CLEAR: lv_field1,
             lv_field2,
             lt_itab1[],
             lt_itab2[].
ONE simple command (CLEAR), can initialize fields, workareas, field-symbols,.... and internal tables.

Declare Internal Table in Code or in Data Dictionary...Opinions needed?

Is it better to define your internal table and all of its fields in a begin of/end of declaration stmt in your code's data definitions. Or, is it better to create a structure in the Data Dictionary, which means one line of code in your program? Why does one choose the method they prefer?
I am thinking it is best to declare in Data Dictionary, especially since ABAP is now leaning towrds objects. However, I am seeing a lot of field by field definitions in programs. I am very interested in how most programmers accomplish this and why.
Thank-You

I would say that if the internal table is to be used in more than one program, then I would create a structure and/or table type in the ABAP dictionary. If it is to be used in just one program, then I would define it locally.

Structure of the context for declaring internal table

Hi,
Can we use the structure of the context for declaring the internal ?
-Sid

Hi Sid,
You can use the above element_ & elements_ notation to define workarea & internal table similar to your context. But the disadvantage of this approach as how pointed out by Thomas in 1 of his earlier threads is that this coding would work fine only for that particular view. If you copy the same code from your view input_view and try to use it in another view say VIEW1 then it wouldn't work as the interface name would have changed from if_input_view to if_view1. So its suggested to use the below approach:
DATA: lt_main TYPE wd_this->elements_node_vbak, " Internal table
wa_main TYPE wd_this->element_node_vbak. " Work area
Try go through this excellent [article|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/60730016-dbba-2a10-8f96-9754a865b814]. It would help you understand what all you need to know about working with the context & its attributes.

Problem in declaring internal table

hai experts ,
i am new to web dynpro abap .. my problem is i want to declare a internal table for a table using the web dynpro code wizard .. i found many threads regarding that .. but for mee its not working .. many of them posted that get_static_attributes_table method will solve the problem .. but i used the method in the wizard but it saying that method does not exist ..pls solve the problem ..
say where to enter the method in the wizard ..
thanks & kind regards
chinnaiya

Hi Chinnaiya,
Your post isnt that clear as to what you intend to do. Do you intend to just create an internal table declaration which would be able to hold your context nodes data or do you wish to use the get_static_attributes method to fetch all your tables data into this internal table?
If you want to just declare an internal table which can hold the data then you would have to do it manually. You can't generate your internal table declaration using the code wizard. Suppose your context nodes name is SFLIGHT then you can use the below syntax to declare a table & work area respectively.
DATA: lt_sflight TYPE wd_this->elements_sflight, " Internal table
wa_sflight TYPE wd_this->element_sflight. " Work area
For each node <node> of a controller context, a structure type element_<node> is implicitly generated in the interface IF_<ctrl>. The structure fields correspond to the attributes a node element consists of. Similarly for each node <node> of a controller context, a standard table type elements_<node> is implicitly generated in the interface IF_<ctrl>. The line type of this table is element_<node>. This constant can be used to
type an internal table that can hold the attributes of multiple node elements. So as how said here you can even declare the work area and internal table like shown below in your MAIN view:
DATA: lt_sflight TYPE if_main=>elements_sflight, " internal table
wa_sflight TYPE if_main=>element_sflight. " work area
But the disadvantage of this approach as how pointed out by Thomas in 1 of this earlier threads is that this coding works fine only for this particular view. If you copy the same code and try to use it in another view say VIEW1 then it wouldn't work as the interface name would have changed from if_main to if_view1. So its suggested to use the earlier approach.

Declaring an internal table in smartform

hi,
 can anyone tell how to declare internal table in smartform.
 the internal table contains fields from 2 or more data dictionary tables(eg.kna1
 and adrc). after this from the print program(internal table containing data in print
 program) internal table should be passed to the smartform.
thanks.

hi laxya,
if u want to pass the data from internal table in print program to Smartform.. there is only way.. that is using form interface..
1. goto se11, create a structure same as the itab in the print program.ex. z_itab
2. create line type... se11>select radio button-DATA type>z_it_itab >press create>then select>TABLE Type> then entrer some text--> in the line type Field in giveth Str name u have created in STEP 1. activate it.
3. got SMARTFORMS-> form inteface>tables tabe--> give some name ex IT_tab type z_it_itab.
then acivate it.. then in the driver progam pass this table data.
Exapmpel
CALL FUNCTION fp_v_fm_name
 EXPORTING
 archive_index = toa_dara
 archive_parameters = arc_params
 control_parameters = fp_st_control_parameters
 user_settings = space
 output_options = fp_st_output_options
 wa_vbdkr = fp_st_vbdkr
 IMPORTING
 job_output_info = l_it_ssfcrescl
 job_output_options = l_it_ssfcresop
 TABLES
 IT_tab = z_it_itab (or table in driver program)
EXCEPTIONS
 formatting_error = 1
 internal_error = 2
 send_error = 3
 user_canceled = 4
 OTHERS = 5.
IF sy-subrc <> 0.
 MESSAGE ID sy-msgid TYPE sy-msgty NUMBER sy-msgno
 WITH sy-msgv1 sy-msgv2 sy-msgv3 sy-msgv4.
ENDIF.
Another way is cteate a type in Globaldifination-->types tab..
ex:
types: begin of ty_itab,
 matnr type matnr,
 meins type meins
 vrkme type vrkme,
end of ty_itab,
ty_it_itab type standard table of ty_itab.
then GLOBAL DIFINATION>GLOBAL DATA TAB>IT)ITAB TYPE TY_IT_ITAB.
BUT In this u can't pass the data from the print Program.. if u want to populate data in to this table... u have to write the Select query in the GLOBAL DIFINATIONS-->INITILIZATIONS TAB.
Please Close this thread.. when u r problem is solved
Reward if Helpful

Internal table declaration

What is the difference between 'OCCURS 0' addition and 'INITIAL SIZE' .
CASE I :(Declaration With 'OCCURS 0' addition)
DATA:BEGIN OF I_TAB OCCURS 0,
       NAME(5) TYPE C,
       AGE(2) TYPE C,
     END OF I_TAB.
CASE II :(Declartion with inital size)
TYPES:BEGIN OF T_TAB,
             NAME(5) TYPE C,
             AGE(2) TYPE C,
           END OF T_TAB.
DATA:I_TAB TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF T_TAB INITIAL SIZE 0.
In the above cases which case is efficient for declaring internal table ?

I have developed a JDBC to ABAP Proxy scenario.
I have a problem. In my ABAP server proxy I have to import the values into an internal table and pass them to a BAPI for GR creation.
I get an error like. OCCURS 0 is not allowed in OO concept.
Can anyone give me examples on declaring internal table in an ABAP Proxy(OO Concept).

This program is working fine. You can test it.
Only problem is as the column headings are big for some columns, they are getting truncated which you can always change by changing the column width in declaration
Please let me know if this helps.

Issue with internal table in object oriented ABAP.

Hello Gurus,
I am having trouble defining internal table in Object oriented ABAP. for following:
DATA: BEGIN OF IT_TAB OCCURS 0.
        INCLUDE STRUCTURE ZCUSTOM.
DATA    tot_sum   TYPE char40.
DATA END OF IT_TAB.
Can someone help ?
Regards,
Jainam.

Moderator message - Please post in the correct forum. You can easily find out for yourself by looking at SAP help for internal tables using OOP - thread locked

No, you can not declare internal table with header line in OO context. You have to declare the work are/header line separately
Example:
TYPES: BEGIN OF ty_it_tab.
        INCLUDE STRUCTURE mara.
TYPES: tot_sum TYPE char40.
TYPES: END OF ty_it_tab.
DATA: it_tab TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF ty_it_tab.
DATA: wk_tab TYPE ty_it_tab.
LOOP AT it_tab INTO wk_tab.
ENDLOOP.

Internal table in badi

Hello friends,
I am working with Badi's and my requirement is i need to fetch the data from database in badi method and have to use that data in my abap program.
So, is there any way i can declare internal table as export parameter of badi method or else if I declare internal table in my abap program and export that while calling badi method then how to declare internal table as import parameter in badi method.

Some things are not clear here..
1 - You have a ABAP Program that trigger's a process that calls a BADI and then return to your ABAP Program
OR
2 - You have implemented a BADI in a process that runs separately from the ABAP Program, and you need to grab data from the BADI into your Program?
I`d suggest:
1 - Try to use a static method or a static class with a method that would "hold the data" from the badi into you memory. You could use methods like SET_INT_TABLE in BADI and then GET_INT_TABLE in your ABAP Prog.
2 - Not sure why you want to do this, but use a Z table.
Regards
