String , String_table ?

[Former Member]

hi,

I have seen the following code but not able to understand what is string_table and below two declaration.

In the first one a standard table of String is made.

i_data type STANDARD TABLE OF string

Is String a Standard Table ? If so , when do we use this ?

What about this String_table ? Its use ?

ls_tab type string_table

What is the difference between the below mentioned two declaration ?

here it_table is a internal table.

new type it_table.

final type STANDARD TABLE OF it_table.

What about this new and final ? their use ?

Any inputs ?

i_data type STANDARD TABLE OF string -- Creates a table with one field of type string.

fields type string_table -- Here string_table is table type defined in se11.

It creates a table of Strings.

final_table type STANDARD TABLE OF it_table -- Creates another internal table final_table like it_table.

new_table type it_table -- here new_table is a work area.
