Hi Team,
I tried to load the web designer with default connection and few data sources loaded. But it is not working.

private void LoadTheDesigner()
{
StiReport report = new StiReport();
SqlConnection sqlConn = new SqlConnection(ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["DB"].ConnectionString);
sqlConn.Open();
report.RegData("EntireSystem", sqlConn);
report.Dictionary.Synchronize();
report.Dictionary.Connect();
StiWebDesigner1.Design(report);
}

after loading up into the browser I cant see any connection in dictionary. Please help me. I did the same thing in win designer, and that works perfectly.

Hello,

Sorry this code can't work with Web Designer. You can't use SqlConnection in this case. Please create StiSqlDatabase instead. For example:

Code: Select all

StiReport report = new StiReport();
StiSqlDatabase database = new StiSqlDatabase("Name", ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["DB"].ConnectionString);
report.Dictionary.Databases.Add(database);
report.Dictionary.Synchronize();
report.Dictionary.Connect();
StiWebDesigner1.Design(report);

Thank you.
