Getting error with Recursive business object

[jkoo]

If I'm using Recurisve business object,
that is, if Employee has Manager property of Employee type in the below code,

I got the error in the preview which tells

'ManagerBuisinessObject' member names cannot be the same as their enclosing type

Code: Select all

public class Employee
{
     ...
     public Employee Manager { get; set; }
}

report.RegBusinessObjects("Employee", new List());
report.Dictionary.SynchronizeBusinessObjects(2)

Is there any resolution?

Thanks

Hello,

Unfortunately, at this moment there is no workaround for this problem.
We plan to start working on this issue after the release of 2011.2.

Thank you.

I have the same problem at the moment but i create the dictionary with a simple recursive loop that creates the columns and business objects.
Is there a way to completely avoid using the dictionary and access the properties of the business object parameter directly?

For example in a text box i want to just write "{Employee.Address.Street}
And then register the Employee object: RegBusinessObject("Employee", myEmployee)
Does this work without using the dictionary just by reflection?

And what if the Employee has a Property "Documents" which is an IEnumerable<Document>.
Would it be possible to use this Property as the data source for a Data band?
