Add custom function inside template

[Werlang]

Hello

I have 2 questions:

1) How could we write a custom function to be used in a template? It can't be added to an assembly. The user can add her own function inside a template.

for example:

Code: Select all

public string MyFunc()
{
	return "XYZ";
}

2) How could we add custom code like the one above to StiReport? That would be the same for all reports, but the functions wouldn't exist in any compiled assembly.

Code: Select all

StiReport report = new StiReport();
report.CustomCode = "public string MyFunc() {return "XYZ";}";
report.Render();

TIA

Hello.

Another way is to add assembly with this function to the Referenced Assemblies property of the report. You could do it with next code:

Code: Select all

List<String> refs = new List<string>(report.ReferencedAssemblies);

if (!refs.Contains("YourAssembly.dll"))
{
    refs.Add("YourAssembly.dll");
}
report.ReferencedAssemblies = refs.ToArray();

Thank you.

Hello

But this functions doesn't exist in any assembly, I'd like to add function code inside template, so I could easily change it.

Thanks

Hello,

Can you please clarify which designer do you use?
In standalone designer, you can open Code tab and add your function in report code.

Thank you.
