Loading report from file

[Nikita]

How can i load report from file and change data source?

 

For example:

I have "report1.trdp", saved in "c:\reports". 

MyRptService needs to open it, pass data as object collection (matching field names in report) and output to pdf.

In below example I can open report and output to pdf but I dont see any way to set different datasource

 Telerik.Reporting.Processing.ReportProcessor reportProcessor =
                    new Telerik.Reporting.Processing.ReportProcessor();

                // set any deviceInfo settings if necessary
                System.Collections.Hashtable deviceInfo =
                    new System.Collections.Hashtable();

                var uriReportSource = new Telerik.Reporting.UriReportSource();

                // Specifying an URL or a file path
                uriReportSource.Uri = @"C:\data\reports\Report1.trdp";

                    

                Telerik.Reporting.Processing.RenderingResult result =
                    reportProcessor.RenderReport("PDF", uriReportSource, deviceInfo);

                string fileName = result.DocumentName + "." + result.Extension;
                string path = System.IO.Path.GetTempPath();
                string filePath = System.IO.Path.Combine(path, fileName);

                using (System.IO.FileStream fs = new System.IO.FileStream(filePath, System.IO.FileMode.Create))
                {
                    fs.Write(result.DocumentBytes, 0, result.DocumentBytes.Length);
                }

Hello Nikita,

To change data sources, you need to get all data items having a DataSource property and to update them. Please consider the example in Changing the connection string dynamically according to runtime data, where the path to TRDP|TRDX files must be adjusted and you need to add case for unpackaging TRDP files.

Let us know if you need further help.
