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.

    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.

    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.  

    Jim R.
