Hello,

To display any messages you can use the following code:

Code: Select all

StiMessageBox.showMessage("Title", "Message");

Also, please explain at what point you want to display a message? When connecting data? At the completion of the report building? Another option?

Thank you.

Hello,

at the completion of the report building..so that i inform the user of any bug/error...regarding the parameters that he has inserted

You can use the following code:

Code: Select all

report.addEventListener(StiReportEvent.END_RENDER, onReportRender);
...

		private function onReportRender(event: StiReportEvent): void
		{
			event.target.removeEventListener(onReportRender);
			StiMessageBox("Message", "Report '" + event.report.reportName + "' building is completed.";
		}

what is the class so that i import the SimessageBox instance?

import stimulsoft.controls.visual.dialogs.StiMessageBox;

Thank you.

hello i have another question regarding the timeout upon loading big datasets to reports, is there any way we can set and influense the timer's timeout period so that the report does not throw exception. the code i am using is :

report.loadReportFromString(reportString);
var database: StiXmlDatabase = new StiXmlDatabase("Connection1",.....XSDPath,reportHandler);
report.dictionary.databases.clear();
report.dictionary.databases.add(database);
report.showDialog();

Hello.

There is a script limit of the Flex. The maximum time is 60 seconds. You could set them with next line:

Code: Select all

-default-script-limits 1000 60

Thank you.
