Dictionary Nodes

Hi

I am working on a windows application using Stimulsoft Reports.Net 2008.1 for Visual Studio 2003. My query is regarding Dictionary in Report Designer.

I am using Business Object as Data Source with structure as

Student
{
string Name;
Subjects MarksOfSubjects;
}

Subjects
{
int Maths;
int English
}

An object of Student would show in Tree structure in Dictionary with "MarksOfSubjects" as a subnode. However, it would also appear as different entiry.
Can we ensure that it appears only as node and not as a seperate entity ?

I hope i am making myself clear here. Please guide
Anu

Hello,

In your version only one way can be realized. Each level of the Business Object is a separate table. The latest version of our product has full support for Business Objects.

Thank you.

Thank You Andrew.

I have one more query related to same.
Suppose i have following scenario

Student
{
string Name;
Subjects MarksOfSubjects[];
}

Subjects
{
int Maths;
int English
}

Wherein, MarksofSubjects is a array of type subjects....this , currently is displayed as a single node in the Dictionary under Student. The expanded node of same MarkofSubject ( showing Maths and English as subnode ) is displayed seperately.

Can i have the collection subnodes displayed in the parent node itself ?

Thanks in Advance

Hello,

If we have understood your problem correctly, then you can use the following code for synchronize the business objects:

Code: Select all

report.Dictionary.SynchronizeBusinessObjects(2);

Thank you.

Thanks Aleksey.

Can i do it using Stimulsoft Reports.Net 2008.1 for Visual Studio 2003 ?
I believe it doesnt support SynchronizeBusinessObjects(2) method ?

Regards
Anu

Hello.

Problem is, I am using Visual Studio 2003 for development.
Please correct me if I am wrong, I believe I can use only Stimulsoft Reports.Net 2008.1 with above mentioned version of Visual Studio ?

Or is there a newer version which supports Visual Studio 2003 ?

Regards
Anu

Hello,

Unfortunately, in Visual Studio 2003 you cannot use Reports.Net 2011.1 due to differences in frameworks versions.

Thank you.
