Hi,
I've created a XtraReport with two EntityServerModeSources (see attached screenshot).
The data to be shown must be set by the calling form. How can I do this?
The code in the form is so far:
C# // create report
xrComputer xrc = new xrComputer();
// set data source
xrc.Datasource = ???
// show report
xFrmReportViewer frm = new xFrmReportViewer { documentViewer = { DocumentSource = xrc } };
frm.ShowDialog(this);
Best regards, Tom
Hello,
Our reports don't support the Server mode and we recommend binding a report to the EFDataSource component as illustrated in the How to: Bind a Report to an Entity Framework Data Source help topic. Check the code behind of the Default.aspx.cs file from the How to provide ASPxReportDesigner with the SqlDataSource, ObjectDataSource and EFDataSource at runtime Code Example where you'll find methods demonstrating runtime initialization of the EFDataSource component.
However if the EntityServerModeSource component is more suitable for you, the following code-snippet illustrates how to change a connection for this component at runtime:
C#NorthwindEntities entity = new NorthwindEntities();
XtraReport1 report = new XtraReport1();
EntityServerModeSource source = report.DataSource as EntityServerModeSource;
source.QueryableSource = entity.Categories;
source.KeyExpression = "CategoryID";
reportDesigner1.OpenReport(report);
