Same error.
This is the code:
Code: Select all
Dim MainMenuService As Stimulsoft.Report.Design.StiMainMenuService = Stimulsoft.Report.Design.StiMainMenuService.GetService
Stimulsoft.Report.StiOptions.Configuration.DirectoryLocalization = AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory
MainMenuService.SetLocalization("it.xml")
Note: I have changed your code from
Code: Select all
Dim designer As New StiDesigner
Dim MainMenuService As StiMainMenuService = StiMainMenuService.GetService(designer)
to
Code: Select all
Dim MainMenuService As Stimulsoft.Report.Design.StiMainMenuService = Stimulsoft.Report.Design.StiMainMenuService.GetService
because with your code the following settings:
Code: Select all
MainMenuService.ShowFileReportNew = True
doens't work. With your code the error appeared anyway.
Note that i do the "report.load" before localization code (in your example it is after). I've postponed the two but the problem still exists.
That said, if in my application path i create a subdir called "Localization" and put "it.xml" file in it and i don't execute:
Code: Select all
Stimulsoft.Report.StiOptions.Configuration.DirectoryLocalization = AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory
MainMenuService.SetLocalization("it.xml")
in designer's "File / Select UI Language" i correctly see "Default" and "Italian" ("Default" is selected).
If i execute only
Code: Select all
Stimulsoft.Report.StiOptions.Configuration.DirectoryLocalization = AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory
i only see "Default" (though in AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory i have the "it.xml" file).
May this be the problem that causes the error in line
MainMenuService.SetLocalization("it.xml")
?
Thanks.

If you've created a folder Localization in you Directory, then the following code is enough for localization, hiding ReportNew button in the Designer and loading the report:
Code: Select all
Dim Report = New StiReport()
Report.Load("Report.mrt")
Dim MainMenuService As Stimulsoft.Report.Design.StiMainMenuService = StiMainMenuService.GetService()
MainMenuService.ShowFileReportNew = False
Dim designer As New StiDesigner()
MainMenuService = StiMainMenuService.GetService(designer)
'this line is not necessary if you've created Localization folder
'Stimulsoft.Report.StiOptions.Configuration.DirectoryLocalization = My.Application.Info.DirectoryPath
MainMenuService.SetLocalization("it.xml")
designer.Report = report
designer.Show()
Thank you.

My problem is that i don't want to put the "it.xml" in "Localization" application subdir (that was only a test).
I need that localization file is in the application directory.
As above said, this code (taken by your previous post) raises an error:
Code: Select all
Dim designer As New Stimulsoft.Report.Design.StiDesigner
MainMenuService = Stimulsoft.Report.Design.StiMainMenuService.GetService(designer)
Stimulsoft.Report.StiOptions.Configuration.DirectoryLocalization = My.Application.Info.DirectoryPath
MainMenuService.SetLocalization("it.xml")
Note: i need to set the "DirectoryLocalization" property because "it.xml" file is not in "Localization" subdir.
The error is thrown by "SetLocalization" method and is:
Value cannot be null.
Parameter name: control
Stack trace (beginning):
System.ArgumentNullException was unhandled
Message="Value cannot be null.
Parameter name: control"
ParamName="control"

at Stimulsoft.Report.Design.StiDesigner.LocalizeToolbars()
at Stimulsoft.Report.Design.StiDesigner.LocalizeDesigner()
at Stimulsoft.Report.Design.StiMainMenuService.UpdateLocalization()
at Stimulsoft.Report.Design.StiMainMenuService.SetLocalization(String localizationFile)
Thanks.

Sorry, we can't reproduce the exception on our side. The code
Code: Select all
Dim designer As New Stimulsoft.Report.Design.StiDesigner
MainMenuService = Stimulsoft.Report.Design.StiMainMenuService.GetService(designer)
Stimulsoft.Report.StiOptions.Configuration.DirectoryLocalization = My.Application.Info.DirectoryPath
MainMenuService.SetLocalization("it.xml")
working without exception ...
Please send test solution to
if exception is still present in your project.
Thank you.

All that you should to do to avoid an exception is to add to your project all dlls in to the ReferenciedAssemblies. After that Stimulsoft.Editor.dll and Stimulsoft.Compression.dll will be added to bin\debug folder and exception will disappear.
Thank you.

We have exactly the same problem here. So I'm also interested in the outcome of this bug report.
Referencing both Stimulsoft.Editor and Stimulsoft.Compression didn't fix this problem.
Thanks,
Jörg

Joero, for your convenience i post here the private message sent in the ticket. The problem is actually under examination by Stimulsoft.
---
I have solved, but in another way.
First i deleted dll from gac as you told me. Then i rebuilded the project and executed it from \bin dir. The problem was still there. Then i downloaded 29 august build, did not registered in gac but the problem was still there.
Then i deleted configuration files from C:\Documents and Settings\MyUserName\Local settings\Application data\Stimulsoft (DockingPanels.config, Stimulsoft.Report.Config, Stimulsoft.Report.Design.Config, Stimulsoft.Report.Settings) and the problem disappeared.
Probably in my tests i did something that "corrupted" those files.
But i've investigated more. In the sample project i sent you, if i add the lines:
----
MainMenuService = Stimulsoft.Report.Design.StiMainMenuService.GetService
MainMenuService.ShowSelectLanguage = False
----
a nullreference exception appears.
It seems that if the ShowSelectLanguage menu is not visible, then the "SetLocalization" method fails. (Just supposing...).
If i remove the line:
MainMenuService.ShowSelectLanguage = False
the error disappears.
My necessity is to set the Italian language (setting the "it.xml" file present in application dir) and do not make see in the designer the "select language" menu (i only need Italian).
Thanks
