Header Variable data section

Application data are stored transparently in the variable data section, so that any data objects can be stored in the queue.

Segmenting is supported for data structures, which exceed the maximum length of the variable data section. This data is stored, in a form that the application can recognize, divided into several logical storage blocks, and passed on complete to the application when it is called again. The application program makes available a sufficiently large reciever buffer.

Note on ABAP:

• The maximum data object size is defined via the Data Dictionary field APQD-VARDATA.
• The maximum buffer size is restricted to the ABAP data range.
