Syntax

CREATE DATA dref [ AREA HANDLE handle ]
                 [ TYPE { {abap_type|(name)
                           [LENGTH len] [DECIMALS dec]}
                        | {[LINE OF] type|(name)}
                        | {REF TO type|(name)}
                        | {{{[STANDARD] TABLE}
                           |{SORTED TABLE}
                           |{HASHED TABLE}}
                           OF [REF TO] {type|(name)}
                           [WITH [UNIQUE|NON-UNIQUE]
                              {KEY {comp1 comp2 ...}|(keytab)}|{DEFAULT KEY}]
                           [INITIAL SIZE n]}
                        | {HANDLE handle} } ]
               | [ LIKE { {[LINE OF] dobj}
                        | {REF TO dobj}
                        | {{{[STANDARD] TABLE}
                           |{SORTED TABLE}
                           |{HASHED TABLE}}
                           OF dobj
                           [WITH [UNIQUE|NON-UNIQUE]
                              {KEY {comp1 comp2 ...}|(keytab)}|{DEFAULT KEY}]
                           [INITIAL SIZE n]} } ].

Effect

Creates an anonymous data object and sets the data reference in dref to the data object. If no TYPE or LIKE addition is specified, dref has to be completely typed and this type is used for the data object.

Additions

• AREA HANDLE handle
  Creates a shared object, where a reference to an area handle has to be specified in handle.
  

• TYPE
  Defines the type by referring to a data type.
  

• LIKE
  Defines the type by referring to a data object.
  

• abap_type$|(name) $[LENGTH len$] $[DECIMALS dec$]
  Specifies a built-in elementary data type statically or dynamically and defines the length and the number of decimal places.
  

• $[LINE OF$] type$|(name)
  Specifies a defined data type statically or dynamically. Here, LINE OF can be used to reference the line type of an internal table.
  

• REF TO
  Creates a reference variable.
  

• ${$[STANDARD$] TABLE$}$|${SORTED TABLE$}$|${HASHED TABLE$}
  Creates an internal table, see DATA.
  

• WITH ${$[UNIQUE$|NON-UNIQUE$] KEY${comp1 comp2 ...$}$|(keytab) $}$|${DEFAULT KEY$}
  Defines the primary table key. Here, components can be specified dynamically in an internal table keytab.
  

• WITH EMPTY KEY
  Defines an empty primary table key.
  

• INITIAL SIZE n
  Defines the initial memory usage, see DATA.
  

• HANDLE handle
  Specifies the data type using a handle reference to an RTTS type description object.
