|{ <ls_obj> }| ABAP syntax?

[Former Member]

Does anyone know what this syntax is with the |{  }| ?  I could not find anything on SDN or Google.

From a little debugging it seems it is appending the return parameter from the method call.

Hi David,

this syntax is used to form string templates. Please use the ABAP Keyword Documentation for '|' (= String Expression) and '{' (= Embedded Expressions). You can reach the documentation by pressing the little " i " Button in the ABAP Editor. Please enter | or { in field "Search Term".

Hi David,

forgot to say that string expressions are available with Release 7.02 ...
