Bind BindingList

[Hussam]

Hello :
how can I bind a BindingList as DataSoure To The Report ?
I tried the following :

Code: Select all

 BindingList class1List = new BindingList() ;
            class1List.Add(new Class1(){ Id ="1" , Name ="test1" ,Type = new ClassType() { TypeName="type1"} }) ;
            class1List.Add(new Class1(){ Id ="2" , Name ="test2" ,Type = new ClassType() { TypeName="type1"} }) ;
            class1List.Add(new Class1(){ Id ="2" , Name ="test3" ,Type = new ClassType() { TypeName="type2"} }) ;
         
            stiReport1.RegData("class1" , class1List  );
            stiReport1.Show();
            stiReport1.Dictionary.Synchronize();

it throws the following Exception :

Code: Select all

c:\Documents and Settings\Hussam\Local Settings\Temp\ljixkzlx.0.cs(282,28) : error CS0246: The type or namespace name 'TestProject' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

Any Help ?

You have to add the assembly to the reference list, where your Class1 is defined:

// Get the existing references defined in the report
string[] references = stiReport.ReferencedAssemblies;
// Converting the the array to a collection
List newReferences = references.ToList();
// Add your Assembly to the list
newReferences.Add("WindowsFormsApplication1");
// Reset the array of referenced assembly with the converted collection
report.ReferencedAssemblies = newReferences.ToArray();

Hope this helps

Hi Hussam,

Also you can try to add your custom namespaces directly in the Designer.

Just select report object in the Property Editor and then add all references to ReferencedAssemblies property. Also please be sure that your assemblies have been placed in the same folder as our dlls.

If the issue is still there then please send the sample project to support[at]stimulsoft.com.

Thank you.

Hello Hussam,

You need make two corrections in your report:

You have used following code in using section:

using Stimulsoft.Report.Dialogs;
using Stimulsoft.Report.Components;
using TestProject

Please set symbol ";" after "TestProject". Correct code is:

using Stimulsoft.Report.Dialogs;
using Stimulsoft.Report.Components;
using TestProject;

Second correction in text component DataClass1_Type_TypeName.

Expression {Class1.} is not correct. You need add column name.

Thank you.
