Refresh ReportViewer with MVVM - Silverlight

[Equipe Info]

Hello,

I'm trying to refresh my reportviewer so it can reload parameters values.
How to do that using MVVM in a Silverlight project ? It seems that no refresh method exists on report viewer control...

Thanks.

I guess RefreshReportCommand Property is what you're looking for.

Cheers!

Sorry but it seems to be a broken link...

It works fine for me. If you're still having problems opening the link, simply locate that property in the Telerik Reporting API (http://www.telerik.com/help/reporting/overview.html).

Yes the link works this morning... don't know why...
I had a look to this property but i can't see how to link this ReportViewerModel to the ReportViewer control.
Do you have any example using this RefreshReportCommand ?

Thank you.

Here is dummy code:

var model = (ReportViewerModel)this.ReportViewer1.DataContext;
model.RefreshReportCommand.Execute();

Cheers!

Thanks this should work fine but I'm using MVVM, so I have to refresh my report in the ViewModel, not in the code-behind of the View...
Any ideas on how to do that ?

Hi Equipe Info,

There is a possible solution described in your other support thread: RenderBegin method using Trigger.  Please, take a look at and let us know whether it fits in your case.

Best wishes,

Hi,

Yes I had a look to my previous thread and it gives a solution for those who don't use MVVM.
But in our case we need MVVM...
I will mark it as answered but it's not what we were looking for.

Thanks
