Hello Sergey,

I have downloaded in svn the latest version and it seems to work, but I have a problem.

With the qtf template (see attached file) I can generate a report (see attached pdf file). Unfortunately from page 2 the report seems broken. In fact the item at the begin of each page is repeated and the first two tables are merged instead to stay a part.

I met in the past a similar problem when generating tables in qtf without to add a proper page break. So, it seems to me, that the report generator does not know when to break properly the page and jump to the new one. This may produce as a result the merge of two consecutive tables.

Because each item of the report should be a table, perhaps the inclusion of the qtf command 'K' somewhere can remove the problem.

I hope to have given you enough info to let you understand what the problem is. Otherwise I'll prepare a test case.

Thank you,
Luigi

Hi Luigi!
It's very strange.
I think, that it some mistakes in client code.
In Report generator all very simple and cannot work wrong.

I propose to send me testcase (if it's close source you may send direct to my mail (mail at svsoft . ru) ).

Hi Luigi!
I looked at the code, code - perfect. The whole thing was in the wrong QTF.
I did the following: just opened two windows - I looked at one window, and drew the same report template in another window.

New QTF file in attachment.

##TOTAL - I added some code for debugging purposes. Here's a modified piece of code.

void ClentCallbackCalcBody() {
	LOG("ClentCallbackCalcBody");
	Vector<String> V = Split(STRINGS[STRINGS_I],';',false);
	DUMPC(V);
	
	rep.SubstVar("##PLAYERNAME",TrimBoth(V.At(0)));
	rep.SubstVar("##COUNTRY",TrimBoth(V.At(1)));
	rep.SubstVar("##TITLE",TrimBoth(V.At(2)));
	rep.SubstVar("##RTGFIDE",TrimBoth(V.At(3)));
	rep.SubstVar("##RTGNAT",TrimBoth(V.At(4)));
	rep.SubstVar("##TOTAL",AsString(TOTAL)); // <===== I added only this line
	String pictaddr;

/*	if (V.GetCount()>=8 && !TrimBoth(V.At(7)).IsEmpty()) {
		pictaddr = TrimBoth(V.At(7));
		if (!pictaddr.IsEmpty()) {
#ifdef PLATFORM_X11
			pictaddr = GetHomeDirectory()+"/MyApps/RepGenTest/"+pictaddr;
			DUMP(pictaddr);
#endif
			Image im = StreamRaster::LoadFileAny(pictaddr);
			rep.PlaceImage( "##IMAGE", im, Size(1100,700) );
//			rep.PlaceImage( "##IMAGE", im );
		}
	} else {
		rep.SubstVar("##IMAGE","");
	}
*/
	
	TOTAL += 1;
	if(++STRINGS_I==STRINGS_COUNT) rep.LoopDone();
	
};

Thank you!

It works now. I am sorry for the false allarm.

Just a little note. Depending on the height of the template table may happen that it is broken over two consecutive pages. Perhaps it would be better to try to keep it on the same page.

Luigi

Unfortunately, a breakdown of the content on the page controls package Report (RepGen falls to slightly modify the original QTF).

Here's another version of the report template using the Option "Keep table together" in parent table.

Hello Sergey,

I have a problem with RepGen.
In the qtf template for some reason I have two times the same field. So, for example, ##PLAYERNAME appear twice in the template.

-------------------------------------
|
##PLAYERNAME | ##PLAYERNAME
|
-------------------------------------

When the report is generated only ONE time it is substitued with the variable value:

-------------------------------------
|
##PLAYERNAME | Luigi
|
-------------------------------------

Is this normal?

Thanks,
Luigi

Unfortunately this is so.
I'm still a choice, replace all occurrences encountered, or is it left to the programmer, who uses RepGen.

Hi all,

I am looking for RepGen, that is what I am searching to do before to find it.
Only one question: the QTF template file are made by what ? My problem is that I don't found any way to insert an image directly from file (I have to open the image from a different editor and copy/paste to the qtf file...), using UWord that is coming with U++. There is any suggestet tool ?

Yhanks.

You can do this without problems.
Array<QtfRichObject> v_qtf_objects;
Image v_image_data = <your image>
v_qtf_objects.Add(CreatePNGObject(v_image_data, 0, 500));
String v_image_str = "";
v_qtf_objects.Add(CreatePNGObject(v_image_data, 0, 500));
v_image_str << v_qtf_objects[v_qtf_objects.GetCount()-1];
v_rep_body = replace_string(v_rep_body, "##ImageData", v_image_str);


The v_rep_body is you template string with image.

OK, I did a costumized template generator, but the idea is same, I think.

Best regards, Ion.

Thanks for all,

Maybe the RepGen, (downloaded from the repository), have a bug at the lines 42 and 44: where "SubstVar("##IMAGE",s);" must be replaced with: "SubstVar(s_from,s);" for best costumization.

Now I am looking for use repeated parts of the report body. Two questions:

1) In the example "RepGenTest" is not clear (for me), what ##EP, ##ET, ##BP and ##BT tags are used for.
2) In the same example, the template file named: REPORT_TEMPLATE.QTF there is some very small tables, or table cells, (apparently not visible). Are used for something regarding RepGen automation ?

Thanks.

Following the example of "RepGen", I have created two packages:
- RepDesigner, (based on UWord), for create the report template files;
- MyReport, that is a package for generate the report, including RepGen engine.

Simple example in the code:
#include <MyReport/MyReport.h>

RepGen rep;
rep.SetTemplate("filename"); // the template file.
tep.Perform();

RepGen is very old in SVN. I'll upload new version with extremely new technique of loop processing (and very simplest).

If you want, you may use UWord. Usually I add same editor in application and I save templates in database.

Maybe I upload RepGen with GUI template editor?

Hi,

Is this working well ? I compiled (rebuilt all) the RepGen_Test, and it doesn't generates a good report (see attached pdf).

I'm using last version (5283) of Upp, the Data.csv file for test seems good as well as QTF report files...

I don't understand what I'm doing wrong... What happens ?

The 2 reports look very similar, just 2 pages and some very little changes for the other, but no data corresponding to data.csv...


PS : could you explain more how to use ##BP, ##BT, ##EP and ##ET, please ? (already asked by mubeta) It could be good that it is mentioned in the doc Wink

Yes, I saw that. But if the example shows how to use ##BT and ##ET and let me guess how it works, there is nothing about ##BP and ##EP. I think that a lot of people would appreciate a short explanation about that !

Could be nice ! But 2 lines in the doc will take 2 mn and make things clear Wink

What about the (almost) empty report I obtain ? What did I do wrong ? Could it be related to some new change in upp ? Strange that it doesn't work properly when I compiled this "out of the box" just after I downloaded the last nightly build...

Hi,

I have a similar problem testing RepGenTest_AddressBookXML2... Seems that PrintStart() is never called !

Very surprising that nobody saw that Shocked

I'm investigating...
