Inline declaration specifying type

[schoutenk]

As of 7.40 we can finally make use of inline data declarations.

Can you use an inline data declaration and specify the type at once?

For example when I do a select on a database type I want to use a hashed type as the output type. But when I use an inline data declaration it will always generate a STANDARD TABLE.

SELECT matnr, maktx
FROM makt
INTO @DATA(lt_makt) <-- This should be a hashed table with key MATNR
  WHERE spras = sy-langu.

No, in SELECT this isn't possible.

It is possible in other write positions, where the type of the source is completely known.

That was a fast answer. Thanks Horst.

Too bad this isn't possible (yet). Maybe a feature for in the future?
