Long rendering time with ConvertNulls = false

Hello,

I'm using Stimulsoft.Net version 2015.2.1 and have a huge difference in rendering time between ConvertNulls on or off.

Just add a DataBand to the report and place a field which contains null values to this databand.

Rendering with ConvertNulls = true: 1 second.
Rendering with ConvertNulls = false: 120 seconds :o

Can you check this please?


Thanks & Regards,
Matthias

Hello,

new findings: the problem only occurs, if I run the designer control out of VisualStudio in debug mode. The reason: your rendering engine throws null reference exceptions.

Can you fix this issue please?


Thanks & Regards,
Matthias

Hello.

The issue is because there are many exceptions.
They take much time in debug mode.
Sorry, but we can't change behavior of Visual Studio.

Thank you.

Hello,

We catch it, but it already take a time (in release too). A good way - fix problems which occurs in report. You need understand in which fields this problems occurs.
Run report from report designer. After then check report checker in report designer. You should see warnings from report engine and where it occurs.

Thank you.
