Returning List of Barcode Types

[SWhitty]

Hi,

I would like to place a form onto my report which would list the Barcode types available in the report, upon selecting a barcode type from a Lookup Box on a Form, the barcode type would be altered on the report.
How can I generate the list of Barcode types and what would i need to cast the result into to correctly assign the type to the Barcode on my final report?

Many Thanks
Simon

Hello, Simon.

You can get list of all Bar Code services with next code:

Code: Select all

StiServiceContainer services = StiConfig.Services.GetServices(typeof(StiBarCodeTypeService));

Thank you.

Thats fantastic, thank you very much.
For anyone reading this in the future:

Code: Select all

using Stimulsoft.Report.BarCodes;
using Stimulsoft.Base.Services;

namespace Reports
{    
    public class Report : Stimulsoft.Report.StiReport
    {
		StiServiceContainer services = StiConfig.Services.GetServices(typeof(StiBarCodeTypeService));

		private void showBarcodeTypes()
		{
			foreach (object o in services)
			{
				rtnstr += rtnstr == "" ? o.ToString() : System.Environment.NewLine + o.ToString();
			}

			MessageBox.Show(rtnstr);
		}

		private void setBarcodeType()
		{
			string selected = "Code11";

			foreach (StiBarCodeTypeService s in services)
			{
				if (s.ToString() == selected)
				{
					BarCode1.BarCodeType = s;
				}
			}

		}
		
        public Report()
        {
            this.InitializeComponent();
        }
