SAP C_ABAPD_2309 Exam Questions & Answers

Correct Answer: AB

Correct Answer: AB

Explanation: The annotation @Environment.systemField: #LANGUAGE is used to assign the ABAP system field sy-langu to an input parameter of a CDS view or a CDS table function. This enables the implicit parameter passing in Open SQL,

which means that the value of sy-langu will be automatically passed to the CDS view without explicitly specifying it in the WHERE clause. This also applies to the CDS views that use the annotated CDS view as a data source, which means

that the value of sy-langu will be propagated to the nested CDS views (view on view)12. For example:

The following code snippet defines a CDS view ZI_FLIGHT_TEXTS with an input parameter p_langu that is annotated with @Environment.systemField:

#LANGUAGE:

define view ZI_FLIGHT_TEXTS with parameters p_langu : syst_langu @

{ sflight.carrid, sflight.connid, sflight.fldate, scarr.carrname, stext.text as carrtext } where stext.langu = :p_langu

The following code snippet shows how to use the CDS view ZI_FLIGHT_TEXTS in ABAP without specifying the value of p_langu in the WHERE clause. The value of sy-langu will be automatically passed to the CDS view:

SELECT carrid, connid, fldate, carrname, carrtext FROM zi_flight_texts INTO TABLE @DATA(lt_flights).

The following code snippet shows how to use the CDS view ZI_FLIGHT_TEXTS in another CDS view ZI_FLIGHT_REPORT. The value of sy-langu will be automatically passed to the nested CDS view ZI_FLIGHT_TEXTS:

define view ZI_FLIGHT_REPORT with parameters p_langu : syst_langu @

connid, fldate, carrname, carrtext

The annotation @Environment.systemField: #LANGUAGE does not prevent the possibility of overriding the default value with a value of your own. You can still specify a different value for the input parameter p_langu in the WHERE clause,

either in ABAP or in another CDS view. This will override the value of sy-langu and pass the specified value to the CDS view12. For example:

The following code snippet shows how to use the CDS view ZI_FLIGHT_TEXTS in ABAP with a specified value of p_langu in the WHERE clause. The value `E' will be passed to the CDS view instead of the value of sy-langu:

SELECT carrid, connid, fldate, carrname, carrtext FROM zi_flight_texts WHERE p_langu = `E' INTO TABLE @DATA(lt_flights).

The following code snippet shows how to use the CDS view ZI_FLIGHT_TEXTS in another CDS view ZI_FLIGHT_REPORT with a specified value of p_langu in the WHERE clause. The value `E' will be passed to the nested CDS view

ZI_FLIGHT_TEXTS instead of the value of sy-langu:

define view ZI_FLIGHT_REPORT with parameters p_langu : syst_langu @

`E' group by carrid, connid, fldate, carrname, carrtext
