Significance of "LIKE" and "TYPE" typespec in Function Builder

Hi all,
Can anyone tell me the significance of "TYPE" and "LIKE" in the Type Spec field of Function Builder?
How does it differ for IMPORT/EXPORT and TABLE?

Hi,
TYPE
The type can be one of the predefined types, one of your own that you defined in the same program using TYPES, or a global type stored in the ABAP Dictionary The default length SL of the field f depends on its data type type.
LIKE
The TYPE addition is designed to be the only construct that enables references to data types, whereas the LIKE addition is used only for data objects. The repository objects in the ABAP Dictionary are data types but not data objects. Outside of ABAP Objects the LIKE reference to database tables and flat structures in the ABAP Dictionary is still allowed for reasons of compatibility with previous releases
In classes only the TYPE reference can be used to refer to data types in the ABAP Dictionary. The LIKE reference is allowed to local data objects only. In local classes this includes the attributes of the class and the data objects of the main program. In global classes only the class attributes can be referenced. This applies both to data declarations and to type assignments of interface parameters and field symbols

LIKE and Type in abap statements

Hello All ,
I have a question regarding the 'Like' and' Type'
I have created a badi XXX , The method has a changing parameter 'A' which is referenced to a structure .
The typing method I have mentioned in the method ( in the parameter list ) is TYPE .( I feel it should have been Like ). Can this cause an issue while writing abap statements in the method ?
Thanks in advance .

Difference between "Like" and "Type" addition

Hi abapers,
I have doubt regarding the purpose and use of the additions "LIKE" and "TYPE" with respect to variable(data objects). Please look into the following code,
Data:numb1 type i value 30.
Data:numb2 like numb1."Will the value 30 get copied to numb2
write : / numb1, numb2.
My question is while using "LIKE" addition with variables, will the value also get copied into the variable. That is, will the value 30 be copied into numb2 or only the technical attributes of numb1 will be copied into numb2.
Another doubt is can we the following code in abap,
Data : int_tab_1 type mara.
Data : int_tab_2 like mara.
Are they both same? If not what is the difference between them?

hi
when ever you declare a data object of abap predefined objects or types that are created by using TYPES statement we use TYPE addition to declare a variable.
if we try to declare a object which is already existing in the program for having the same technical attributes then we declare by using LIKE addition.
ex
TYPES:
   begin of fs_emp,
      name TYPE string,
   end of fs_string.
data :
   w_i TYPE i,
   w_emp TYPE fs_emp.
now if we want to create a data object which is having the same attributes of fs_emp then we can declare by using LIKE statement
data :
   w_employee LIKE w_emp.
when u are using like then the object should already exists in the program

PAVAN

Like and type...

Kindly let me know when I have to use LIKE and when I have to use TYPE Exactly.
What is the difference b/w both..

Smartview Issue in Function Builder

Hello Guys,
We are upgrading our Smart view from 11.1.2.1.103_PSE13709867 to 11.1.2.2.310. But while testing the function builder, I found some strange behaviors.
When I try to modify an existing formula it throws error in the function builder window. Although the existing formula fetches the correct data from HFM in both the versions.
While editing if I replace any member selection with a cell reference, it will show the correct member there, but once you click "Ok" and again re-open function builder, you will find an extra double quotes (") in the syntax.
Eg: Existing Formula: *"Scenario#AC"*
Edited and Validated Formula: *"Scenario#"&BK140*
After reopening Function Builer: *"Scenario#"&BK140*"*
The extra double quotes at the end fails the validation.
Did you face any issues like this? Any Workaround or it's just a annoying bug....
Thanks in advance.

Display Like and Share functionality in SharePoint 2013 search result

Hello Experts,
I dont Know whether i am asking a good question or bad one . but i am not very much expert in search.
I have to display No of Likes , Share functionality in SharePoint Search Results.
i know little basic about how display templates works. i want to implement these like and share functionality as actions in Item_common_hoverpanel_Actions template. show that i can see in preview.
please if any body can help me . i will be highly thankful to you.
Mukesh

This will be difficult. The number of likes has a managed property called LikesCount but it is not populated by the search crawler. So your JavaScript will have to read the "LikesCount" field of the corresponding list item. That would be a
lot of code to execute in the item display template just to display the number of likes. You could have a button that displayed a callout that would get the information and display it. The Sharing could be done via JavaScript in your item display template
using a REST call. You can see an example of code to do that here:
http://sharepointfieldnotes.blogspot.com/2014/09/sharing-documents-with-sharepoint-rest.html?showComment=1428595550241#c3227376854590814312
Just remember the user must have permission to share these documents, so your code will have to handle this.

I ended up reformating the drive as FAT32 because I still need to use it on my Windows 98SE system also. I did have a problem with the allocation size. I wanted to use 512 bytes but it kept failing so I used the default size(8192 bytes) and then it worked fine. I didn't think there would be a problem formatting as NTFS but since you are having problems I just tried it. It failed at 512 bytes allocation size so I tried again using 4096 bytes, the default, as the allocation size and it failed again. It looks like these drives will not format as NTFS.
Also, I think I figured out what's going on with the ReadyBoost problem. As I said initially it wouldn't work with ReadyBoost then after I had 12GB of data on the drive the ReadyBoost feature started working. After I deleted all the files it quit working again. After doing some reading on the net about Flash drives and ReadyBoost problems it appears that the memory chips on my Lenovo Flash drive are mixed with both fast memory chips that work fine with ReadyBoost and slower memory chips that are too slow for ReadyBoost. Apparently, after I fill up the portion of memory with data that uses the slow chip(s) then ReadyBoost works fine with the fast chip(s). I also verified the Flash drives read and write memory speeds using Vista's Event Viewer. To work with ReadyBoost the Flash drive has to read at a minimum of 2.5MB/s (for 4KB random reads) and write at a minimum of 1.75MB/s (for 512KB random writes).
Let me know what you find out.

Data Vs Types and Type Vs Like

hi frds can you send main diffrences between
Data Vs Types   and     Type Vs Like.
some what briefly explanation.......... i am in confusion in this

Hi Madhu,
Data is used to create data object ( means memory will be allocated)
Types is used to create structures
Type is used to refer to Predefined data types ( like n,i,f,d,t,p,x....)
Like is used to refer the local variables.
All ABAP programs can define their own data types. Within a program, procedures can also define local types.
You define local data types in a program using the
TYPES .
TYPES: spfli_type TYPE spfli,
       surname(20) TYPE c,
       BEGIN OF address,
             name       TYPE surname,
             street(30) TYPE c,
             city       TYPE spfli_type-cityfrom,
       END OF address,
       town TYPE address-city.
This example shows the definition of two structure types in a program - SPFLI_TYPE and ADDRESS. The structure of the data type SPFLI_TYPE is taken from the database table SPFLI in the ABAP Dictionary. The components of SPFLI_TYPE are the same as the columns of SPFLI. The individual data types of the components are the ABAP equivalents of the data types of the columns of the database table. The structure type ADDRESS is newly defined. The component ADDRESS-NAME takes the data type of the previously-defined type SURNAME, the component ADDRESS-STREET is newly-defined, ADDRESS-CITY takes the data type of column CITYFROM of the structure type SPFLI_TYPE.
TYPES: BEGIN OF struct1,
         col1 TYPE i,
         BEGIN OF struct2,
           col1 TYPE i,
           col2 TYPE i,
         END OF struct2,
       END OF struct1.
TYPES mytype TYPE struct1-struct2-col2.
The example shows how you can construct a nested structure type STRUCT1 with a complex component STRUCT2 by nesting TYPES BEGIN OF ... TYPES END OF blocks, and how you can address the inner components.
local types in program
referring to predefined ABAP types:
TYPES: surname(20) TYPE c,
       street(30)   TYPE c,
       zip_code(10) TYPE n,
       city(30)     TYPE c,
       phone(20)    TYPE n,
       date         LIKE sy-datum.
local structure in program
referring to the above types
TYPES: BEGIN of address,
         name TYPE surname,
         code TYPE zip_code,
         town TYPE city,
         str TYPE street,
       END OF address.
local nested structure in program
referring to the above types
TYPES: BEGIN of phone_list,
         adr TYPE address,
         tel TYPE phone,
       END OF phone_list.
This example shows how to create complex data types from simple type definitions. After a set of simple data types are created with ABAP predefined types, a structured type ADDRESS is defined using the data types defined earlier. Finally, a nested structure type, PHONE_LIST, is created, whose first component has the type ADDRESS.
Table types
Local tables in a program are called internal tables. To construct a new internal table type, use the syntax:
TYPES can be any known data type. Specifying the key is optional. Internal tables can thus be generic. For more information, refer to Internal Tables.
DATA
The Statements TYPES and DATA
Each ABAP program define its own data types using the statement.
TYPES dtype TYPE type ...
and declare its own variables or instance attributes of classes using the statement
DATA var {TYPE type} ...
Within the program or a class, you can also define local data types and variables within procedures. Local variables in procedures obscure identically-named variables in the main program or class.
When creating data types and data objects, there are a number of naming convention that also apply for other local program definitions, such as procedures. These are described in detail in the keyword documentation.
The Additions TYPE and LIKE
The additions TYPE type and LIKE dobj are used in various ABAP statements. The additions can have various meanings, depending on the syntax and context.
·        Definition of local types in a program
·        Declaration of data objects
·        Dynamic creation of data objects
·        Specification of the type of formal parameters in subroutines
·        Specification of the type of formal parameters in methods
·        Specification of the type of field symbols
Constructing New Data Types
The TYPE addition allows you to construct new data types in the TYPES, DATA; CONSTANTS; and STATICSstatements. In the TYPES statement, these are local data types in the program. In the other statements, they are attributes of new data objects, meaning that the newly defined data types are not free-standing. Rather, they are linked to database objects.This means that you can refer to them using the LIKEaddition, but not using TYPE.
To construct new data types, the addition TYPE can be used with the following type constructors:
·        Construction of reference types
REF TO type|dobj
·        Construction of structured data types
BEGIN OF struc_type.
END OF struc_type.
·        Construction of table types
tabkind OF linetype
These data types only exist during the runtime of the ABAP program.
Referring to Known Data Types or Data Objects
Using the additions TYPE or LIKE in the TYPESstatement, local data types in a program can be referred to known data types or data objects. This is mainly the case with user-defined elementary data types. If you declare variables using the additions TYPE type or LIKE dobj with statement DATA, the data type of var is already fully defined before the declaration is made.
The known types or data that are referred to must be visible at the point where the data type or variable is declared.
A known data type can be any of the following:
·        A predefined ABAP type to which you refer using the TYPE addition
·        An existing local data type in the program to which you refer using the TYPE addition
·        The data type of a local data object in the program to which you refer using the LIKE addition
·        A data type in the ABAP Dictionary to which you refer using the TYPE addition. To ensure compatibility with earlier releases, it is still possible to use the LIKE addition to refer to database tables and flat structures in the ABAP Dictionary. However, you should use the TYPE addition in new programs.
The LIKE addition takes its technical attributes from a visible data object. As a rule, you can use LIKE to refer to any object that has been declared using DATA or a similar statement, and is visible in the current context. The data object only has to have been declared. It is irrelevant whether the data object already exists in memory when you make the LIKE reference.
·        In principle, the local data objects in the same program are visible. As with local data types, there is a difference between local data objects in procedures and global data objects. Data objects defined in a procedure obscure other objects with the same name that are declared in the global declarations of the program.
·        You can also refer to the data objects of other visible ABAP programs. These might be, for example, the visible attributes of global classes in class pools. If a global class cl_lobal has a public instance attribute or static attribute attr, you can refer to it as follows in any ABAP program:
DATA dref TYPE REF TO cl_global.
DATA: f1 LIKE cl_global=>attr,
       f2 LIKE dref->attr.
You can access the technical properties of an instance attribute using the class name and a reference variable without first having to create an object. The properties of the attributes of a class are not instance-specific and belong to the static properties of the class.
TYPES: BEGIN OF struct,
         number_1 TYPE i,
         number_2 TYPE p DECIMALS 2,
       END OF struct.
DATA: wa_struct TYPE struct,
       number    LIKE wa_struct-number_2,
       date      LIKE sy-datum,
       time      TYPE t,
       text      TYPE string,
       company   TYPE s_carr_id.
This example declares variables with reference to the internal type STRUCT in the program, a component of an existing data object wa_struct, the predefined data object SY-DATUM, the predefined ABAP type t and STRING, and the data element S_CARR_ID from the ABAP Dictionary.
Referring to Generic Data Types
If you refer to one of the generic predefined ABAP types of fixed length (c, n, p, x) in the TYPES or DATA statement, you must specify the undefined technical attributes.
TYPES|DATA var[(length)] TYPE type ...
TYPES|DATA var TYPE type ...
DATA: text1,
      text2 LENGTH 2,
      text3 TYPE c LENGTH 3,
      pack TYPE p DECIMALS 2 VALUE '1.225'.
This example creates three character variables with field lengths of one, two, and three bytes respectively, and a packed number variable with field length 8 bytes and two decimal places. If the attribute Fixed point arithmetic is set, the value of pack is 1.23.
This example shows how to declare elementary data objects with reference to predefined ABAP types.
PROGRAM demo_elementary_data_objects.
DATA text1 TYPE c LENGTH 20.
DATA text2 TYPE string.
DATA number TYPE i.
text1 = 'The number'.
number = 100.
text2 = 'is an integer.'.
WRITE: text1, number, text2.
This program produces the following output on the screen:
The number              100 is an integer.
In this example, the data objects text1, text2 and number are declared with the DATA statement. The technical attributes are determined by referring to the predefined ABAP types c, string, and I. Values from unnamed literals are assigned to the data objects. The contents of the named data objects are displayed on the list.
Specifying a Start Value
When you declare an elementary fixed-length variable, the DATAstatement automatically fills it with the type-specific initial value as listed in the table in the Predefined ABAP Types section.
However, you can also specify a starting value of a fixed-length elementary variable (also within a structure declaration) using the VALUE addition in the DATAstatement:
DATA var ... VALUE val|{IS INITIAL}.
Specifying start values:
DATA: counter TYPE p VALUE 1,
      date    TYPE d VALUE '19980601',
      flag    TYPE n VALUE IS INITIAL.
After this data declaration, the character string flag contains its type specific
Initial value 0.

I need serious help please.. We do translations of schoolbooks, I looked for an over-type function but were unable to find, we are working in indesign CS 5. it takes up allot of time to delete text and type in the new language.

Argh that's frustrating! I never noticed that key did not work in InDesign.
A bit of research and it turns out the MS Office has this as an option in their software. But I cannot find an option in InDesign preferences to make this work.
However, somethings are not listed in the shortcuts and preferences and are hidden triggers in InDesign which can be accessed through a script.
I'm not saying it's possible to activate the Insert Key through a script, but it's plausible that it can be activated.
Maybe ask on the scripting forum? InDesign Scripting
I know this may be a possibility as with InDesign's earlier versions of PDF export to interactive documents there previously was no way to export interactive pdfs as single pages if in Spreads.
But the option to toggle this setting was scriptable.

    <p class="style7 style6">“I have been working with Owen Dawson for the past 7 years. During that time my swing has dramatically changed and improved. This has happened through Owen's drills and use of video. It is because of these techniques, that I understand how to hit good shots but just as importantly why I hit a shot poorly. I’m glad I’ve had the opportunity to work with Owen and would highly recommend him. ” <strong>Sam Young - Country Club of Maryland - 2009 Men's Club Champion </strong></p>
    <p class="style2">.............................................</p>
    <p class="style7 style6">“Owen does two things particularly well, in my opinion. First, he is a master of recording technology, and it really helps me to see what I need correcting, and what the new move needs to be. Second, Owen knows what the best next step should be in your own journey to a better swing. I have taken one or two lessons from Owen each year for the last three or four years – one relatively small step at a time, and then worked on grooving that step. In that period, my index has dropped about 8 strokes, and in 2007 I won the Club’s “Most Improved Player” award. Kudos to Owen!”</p>
