I find article that help me:
https://documentation.devexpress.com/eXpressAppFramework/113601/Task-Based-Help/Reporting/How-to-Print-a-Report-Without-Displaying-a-Preview
i prepared controller class:
C#public abstract class PrintStacjeKlientowController : ObjectViewController<ListView, StacjeOMRKlientow>
{
private Klienci parent;
public PrintStacjeKlientowController()
{
SimpleAction printAction = new SimpleAction(this, "PrintStacjeKlientow", PredefinedCategory.Reports);
printAction.ImageName = "Action_Printing_Print";
printAction.Caption = "Print Station";
printAction.TargetViewNesting = Nesting.Nested;
printAction.TargetViewType = ViewType.ListView;
printAction.Execute += delegate (object sender, SimpleActionExecuteEventArgs e)
{
IObjectSpace objectSpace = ReportDataProvider.ReportObjectSpaceProvider.CreateObjectSpace(typeof(ReportDataV2));
IReportDataV2 reportData = objectSpace.FindObject<ReportDataV2>(
new BinaryOperator("DisplayName", "Stacje OMR Klienta"));
if (reportData == null)
{
throw new UserFriendlyException("Cannot find the 'Contacts Report' report.");
}
else
{
PrintReport(reportData, parent);
}
};
}
protected override void OnActivated()
{
base.OnActivated();
View.CurrentObjectChanged += new EventHandler(View_CurrentObjectChanged);
SetParentRecord();
}
void View_CurrentObjectChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
SetParentRecord();
}
private void SetParentRecord()
{
NestedFrame nestedFrame = Frame as NestedFrame;
if (nestedFrame != null)
{
if (((NestedFrame)Frame).ViewItem.CurrentObject is Klienci)
{
parent = ((NestedFrame)Frame).ViewItem.CurrentObject as Klienci;
}
}
}
protected override void OnDeactivated()
{
base.OnDeactivated();
void View_CurrentObjectChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
View.CurrentObjectChanged -= new EventHandler(View_CurrentObjectChanged);
}
}
protected abstract void PrintReport(IReportDataV2 reportData, Klienci parent);
}
and in Win.Module
C#public class WinPrintStacjeKlientowController : PrintStacjeKlientowController
{
protected override void PrintReport(IReportDataV2 reportData, Klienci parent)
{
XtraReport report = ReportDataProvider.ReportsStorage.LoadReport(reportData);
ReportsModuleV2 reportsModule = ReportsModuleV2.FindReportsModule(Application.Modules);
if (reportsModule != null && reportsModule.ReportsDataSourceHelper != null)
{
int customerNumber = parent.NUMERKLIENTA;
CriteriaOperator co = new BinaryOperator("CustomerNumber", customerNumber.ToString());
reportsModule.ReportsDataSourceHelper.SetupBeforePrint(report, null, co, true, null, false);
string FileName = "report.pdf";
report.ExportToPdf(FileName);
Process.Start(FileName);
}
}
}

Hello Debeściak,
I found several tickets in our Support Center where we discussed a similar task. The following ticket has the most detailed answer: In-place report - How to print all records if user did not select one. Try the suggested solutions and let me know if they work for you.
PS: I used the following keywords to search in Google: "xaf inplace report print all listview records". I If you already tried to search for our online learning materials using different keywords, please elaborate on the searches you made (key words in particular). With that, we can check if anything needs to be improved on our side (e.g., more key words need to be added). Such tuning can save a lot of development time for other customers in the future. Thanks for your collaboration in advance.

I try to use this but I have to run this functionality I Win modules
and
C#var reportServiceController = Frame.GetController<ReportServiceController>();
returns null value
if there is selected any record than nothing happens …
C#public abstract class CustomPrintSelectionBaseController : PrintSelectionBaseController
{
public CustomPrintSelectionBaseController()
: base()
{
ShowInReportAction.Execute += ShowInReportAction_Execute;
}
private void ShowInReportAction_Execute(object sender, DevExpress.ExpressApp.Actions.SingleChoiceActionExecuteEventArgs e)
{
if (e.SelectedObjects.Count == 0)
{
var reportServiceController = Frame.GetController<ReportServiceController>();
var reportData = (ReportDataInfo)e.SelectedChoiceActionItem.Data;
reportServiceController.ShowPreview(reportData.ReportContainerHandle,
GetCollectionSourceFilter() & GetGridFilter());
}
}
protected abstract CriteriaOperator GetGridFilter();
private CriteriaOperator GetCollectionSourceFilter()
{
var listView = (ListView)View;
var collectionSource = listView.CollectionSource as CollectionSource;
return collectionSource.GetTotalCriteria();
}
}
I modify controller for win module like here:
C#namespace MailerX.Module.Win.Controllers
{
public class CustomPrintSelectionControllerWeb : CustomPrintSelectionBaseController
{
protected override CriteriaOperator GetGridFilter()
{
var listView = (ListView)View;
var editor = (GridListEditor)listView.Editor;
return CriteriaOperator.Parse(editor.Filter);
}
}
}
Hello Debeściak,
A ListView in a WinForms application always has at least one selected record. That is why, the built-in ShowInReport action will always display this record. The solution would be adding a custom ShowAllInReport action to the toolbar. Users will use it when it is necessary to export all records. Please let me know if this approach is acceptable in your scenario.

yes it is acceptable, but how to call this report in custom action - the code above doesn't work …
