Application Programming Interfaces
REPORTMAKER programming interfaces allow to integrate report outputs into a business
application. In most cases, a few lines of code (such as the minimal example
shown below) will be sufficient to display, print, export or email a report.
However, there may be more complicated situations, requiring that you take
control and change things programmatically. The programming interfaces give
plenty of power to do that. They are object-oriented and contain about 300
methods, properties and events. That's enough to create a report from
scratch, without using the report editor!

REPORTMAKER offers three equivalent programming interfaces:
-
ActiveX: to be
used with Visual Basic, Visual C++, and all development tools
supporting the ActiveX standard.
-
VCL for Delphi
and C++Builder, supporting the following Delphi
and C++Builder versions:
-
Delphi 5, 6, 7, 2005, 2006
and 2007 (in Win 32 mode)
-
C++Builder 5.
-
DLL:
based on a plain dynamic link library (not an ActiveX library).
Can be used with all Win32 development tools.
The three APIs are
functionally equivalent and can be used on all Microsoft Windows (Win32)
platforms. |
