Derivate StiMainMenuService

[Jean-Philippe Roques]

Hi,

I would like to create a StiMainMenuService derivate to override the InvokeReportNew method. I've created my derivated service, register it and disable original StiMainMenuService, but the designer don't use my derivate.

How can I force designer to use my own MainMenuService instead the original StiMainMenuService ?

Thanks,
Jean-Philippe

You need disable original service by this code:

Code: Select all

StiMainMenuService service = StiMainMenuService.GetService().ServiceEnabled = false;

After then you need add your own service with this code:

Code: Select all

StiConfig.Services.Add(new MyOwnService());

p.s. For also you can try use static event:

Code: Select all

StiDesigner.CreatingReport

Thank you.

I already do this :

Code: Select all

      StiMainMenuService.GetService().ServiceEnabled = false;
      StiConfig.Services.Add(new MyMainMenuService());
      StiConfig.Save();

If after this code, I try to get MyMainMenuService by the code below it's returned null

Code: Select all

StiConfig.Services.GetService(typeof(MyMainMenuService))

But if i watch in Services collection, MyMainMenuService is in and StiMainMenuService is well disabled.

Also, If I launch designer after that and choose File > New report, 'InvokeReportNew' overriden method is not called

Finally, I have tried to used CreatingReport and it works how i needed. I also see the savingReport event. With this two events , I can act on "File > New report" and "File > Save as" without derivate StiMainMenuService.

Thanks for helping,
