Description
The following L procedure is implemented in the AMDP method HELLO_WORLD of the AMDP class CL_DEMO_AMDP_L_HELLO_WORLD:
FOR HDB LANGUAGE LLANG
OPTIONS READ-ONLY.
* Hello World in L
typedef Table <String "TEXT"> TT_TABLE; /* Type definition
repeated */
//Main entry point
export Void main(String text, TT_TABLE & texts)
{ String hello = String("Hello ");
texts."TEXT"[0z] = hello.append( text ).append( "!" ); }
ENDMETHOD.
The tabular output parameter is created from a predefined text and an interactive input made in the ABAP program.
Note
The programming language L can only be used internally and with restrictions at SAP. For general programming with the SAP HANA database, SQL or the script language SQL Script must be used. The use of L by customers and partners is not supported.
