I was trying to export a report to xml but the DATATABLE class was converted with the name “table1” instead of their true name.

Hello.

Sorry, maybe we don't understand you right.
Could you describe your scenario more detailed?

Thank you.

Hello,

I have the same problem.

if I try to export a report as xml, the name of the node elements is not being assigned correctly.
I created a example on GitHub to illustrate the problem.
https://github.com/RodrigoGT/StimulsoftSample

the sample shows two xml, the first xml is what I expected to be generated by the report
and second xml was generated by the report.

if you look into the xml generated by the report, you'll notice that the element name appears as "Table1" but it supposed to look like "Category".

how do I set the element name correctly?

Hello, Fabiano.

We have added a new export setting:
StiXmlExportSettings.TableName

It will be available in the 2018.1.4 build.
You could set this option and get necessary result.

Thank you.

Hello,

the problem was not fixed.

the export settings are not being passed on "StiReport.Export.cs" to "StiXmlExportService", on method "public void ExportDocument(StiExportFormat exportFormat, StiExportService exportService, Stream stream, StiExportSettings settings)"

Hello.

Yes, there was an issue with ExportDocument() method.
We are fixing this issue right now.
You should set the TableName of the StiXmlExportSettigns and use the ExportXML() method.

Thank you.

Hi Rodrigo,

The issue has been fixed and the next build will have the fix included.
In the meantime, could you please use the following code, that will create a similar object of settings:

Code: Select all

var settings = new StiDataExportSettings(StiDataType.Xml);

Thank you,
Edward
