report.render(true) issue

mmurdock · Post by **mmurdock** » Fri May 09, 2008 3:59 pm

I have been using the code below for sometime to render a report, however after updating to 2008.1 I get the following error on my report.render(true) line:

error BC30516: Overload resolution failed because no accessible 'New' accepts this number of arguments.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Mat

Code: Select all

Dim report As New Stimulsoft.Report.StiReport()
Report.LoadFromString(strTemplate)

report.Render(True)

Using form As Stimulsoft.Report.Render.StiPreviewForm = New Stimulsoft.Report.Render.StiPreviewForm(report)

form.PreviewControl.ShowBookmarksPanel = False
form.PreviewControl.ShowDotMatrixModeButton = False
form.PreviewControl.ShowSave = False
form.PreviewControl.ShowOpen = False
form.PreviewControl.ShowPageNew = False
form.PreviewControl.ShowPageDelete = False
form.PreviewControl.ShowPageDesign = False

If report.IsStopped = True Then Return

form.ShowDialog()

End Using

Hello,

This is error of compilation or execution time?

Thank you.

Execution time.

Thanks,

The reason of the exception is not in the code you showed, but somewhere in the report which was loaded from strTemplate string.

Please send it to support[at]stimulsoft.com for analysis.

Thank you.

Ok, I think I have narrowed down the problem. In my code I have a line that looks like this:

Code: Select all

Report.Dictionary.Databases.Add(New Stimulsoft.Report.Dictionary.StiMySqlDatabase(mysql_database, "Server=" + mysql_server + ";Database=" + mysql_database + ";Uid=" + mysql_username + ";Pwd=" + mysql_password + ";Allow Zero Datetime=true;"))

When I run the report in design mode and then do a preview I get the following error on this line:

Code: Select all

 Me.Dictionary.Databases.Add(New Stimulsoft.Report.Dictionary.StiMySqlDatabase("compass", "compass", "Server=localhost;Database=xxxxx;Uid=xxxxx;Pwd=xxxxx;Allow Zero Datetime=tr"& _ 
"ue;", false))

I think the problem is that there is a forth parameter in the second bit of code when there should only be three. I could be wrong though. This error message seems to verify it "Overload resolution failed because no accessible 'New' accepts this number of arguments."

Hello,

Some time ago we have added new parameter to constructor of MySqlDatabase. Report engine know about this parameter. Your version of MySqlDatabase - now. I think you need update your MySqlDatabase pack. Please get the latest pack from our website.

Thank you.

I am using an older Mysql pack because I thought there was an issue with current one according to this post: http://forum.stimulsoft.com/Default.aspx?g=posts&t=1181.

If this has been resolved please let me know.

Thanks!

Does the new version require that I use core labs? If so what product?
