rspec/rules/S5769/abap/rule.adoc

Using ``++LOOP...INTO++``  with ``++MODIFY++`` statements will put the required record in a work area, process it and put it back in the internal table. It is more efficient to modify the internal table directly by using ``++LOOP...ASSIGNING++`` and field-symbols.


This rule raises an issue when a ``++LOOP...INTO++`` contains one or more ``++MODIFY++`` statements.


== Noncompliant Code Example

[source,abap]
----
LOOP AT i_bseg INTO wa_bseg.
    ...
    wa_bseg-sgtxt = 'VALUE'.
    MODIFY i_bseg FROM wa_bseg.
ENDLOOP.
----


== Compliant Solution

[source,abap]
----
LOOP AT i_bseg ASSIGNING <fs_bseg>.
  ...
  <fs_bseg>-sgtxt = 'VALUE'.
ENDLOOP.
----
