Changes in the behavior of the Click-Event

[gerold.taisser]

Hello.

the new Version of Stimulsoft Report Engine (2019.2.3.0) has some changes concerning the availability of Data from Datasources from Code. Using the Render-Event of a report, I am able to display the value of a property from a datasource by showing it in a MessageBox. In former versions, it was possible to do the same using the Click-Event-Handler. That does not work anymore. If I try to display the value of a datasource property inside a Click-Event-Handler in the new Version, the result is always empty or 0 independent of the actual value.
I have provided a simple Sample-project to demonstrate the problem.
This change in behavior breaks a lot of my code. Is this a bug? If not, do you have any suggestions on how to handle this problem?

Best regards,

Hello,

In previous versions was a bug: after the end of the rendering, the DataTables in the data sources were not cleared, they store in memory and took up a lot of space.
In last year was made a fix, now the tables are cleared, but in this case, the OnClick event works in the viewer after rendering, i.e. there is no data.

Workaround: during rendering, remember the desired table in a variable, and then return it back.

One more option - if the entire table is not needed, but only some specific value in each textbox: write this value in the Tag property of the text component and then take it from the Tag to OnClick.

Thank you.
