Calling a report from a class

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Jim Richardson

Hello,

I'm calling a report (extend ObjectRun) from a class (Extends RunBaseReport) from the run method with the following code:

while SELECT myTable {

  args = new Args (reportStr (myReport));

  args.caller (this);
  args.record (myTable);

  rpt = new ReportRun (args);

  rpt.printJobSettings ().setTarget (printMedium::File);
  rpt.printJobSettings ().format    (printFormat::PDF);
  rpt.printJobSettings ().fileName  (shipListShipToTbl.filename);

  rpt.report ().interactive (false);
  rpt.query  ().interactive (false);

  rpt.init ();
  rpt.run ();

}

Is there a way to wait for the report to finish before processing the record?  And receive status, i.e. terminate the loop if the report fails from some reason?  Unfortunately I can't or prefer not to modify the called report.

    Jacob,

    Thank you for your response, although the light went off and I realized the call to "rpt.run ()" is a synchronous call.  Therefore, I don't need to wait, the call doesn't return until the run method is finished.

    Now the question is how to prevent the lastValueElementName method from calling the report.

    Maybe you could try:

    while SELECT myTable {

     args = new Args (reportStr (myReport));

     args.caller (this);

     args.record (myTable);

     rpt = new ReportRun (args);

     rpt.printJobSettings ().setTarget (printMedium::File);

     rpt.printJobSettings ().format    (printFormat::PDF);

     rpt.printJobSettings ().fileName  (shipListShipToTbl.filename);

     rpt.report ().interactive (false);

     rpt.query  ().interactive (false);

     try {

         rpt.init ();

         rpt.run ();

     }

     catch

     {

         break;

     }

    }

    Mind you I haven't tried it.
