Show bitmap into a report

Hi all,

I've insert an image for a record as an external notes (using docuRef, where docuType = File).

Now, I've to display the image (saved as .bmp) into a report.

Into the report I've added a display method (that returns Bitmap) like:

-------------------------------------------------
    DocuRef                 docuRef;
    FileName                fileName;
    Image                   image;
    container               imageCont;
    Bitmap                  ret;
    ;

        select docuRef where
            docuRef.RefTableId == tableId &&
            docuRef.RefRecId == recId &&
            docuRef.TypeId == 'FILE';
        fileName = docuRef.completeFilename();
        if (Image::canLoad(fileName))
        {
            image = new Image();
            image.loadFile(fileName);
            imageCont = conIns(imageCont, 1, image.getData());
            ret = conpeek(imageCont, 1);
            return ret;
        } //---- end-if image

---------------------------------------------------

The select statement find out the filePath, the image load the fileName, the container returns a value into ret.... but nothing is displayed in my report!!!

Can someone help me to understand why? Have someone any suggestion?

Thanks to all

Emanuela

Hi Mohamed

thank you very much for your answer.

I solved my problem using image as a table field, instead that as a note. But next time I'll try your suggestion.

Best regards,

Re: Show bitmap into a report

Hello,

Are you running your report manualy or in batch? Image processing is disabled my Microsoft in batch mode for security. Images can only be printed if reports are printed manualy.

Use this code :
display server public DocuValueFile your_method_name() {
DocuRef docuref;
DocuValue docuValue;
;
select firstonly tableid from docuRef
where docuRef.RefCompanyId == dataAreaId &&
docuRef.RefTableId == tableId &&
docuRef.RefRecId == recId &&
docuRef.TypeId == 'FILE'
join file from docuValue
where docuValue.RecId == docuRef.ValueRecId;
return docuValue.File;
}

and drag it to the design, it works.

Best regards,

Mohamed Amine
