RefreshVolumeDirectory

rbuser

Hi Nard,

I have a new problem. In my client application there is an option very
common in the most of applications named "Save As...". So, when I use that
option, I insert a new row in my table (REPORTS) of DataBase. After, I try
to print that report, but that is not still available in my
ReportVolumeDirectory because there isn't any active session. First, how can
I refresh the ReportVolumeDirectory? How can I create a new session without
have printed a report before? I need of a ClientReport.sessionID.

Best Regards,

Bruno Braga

The ReportVolume.DirectionOptions.RefreshInterval specifies the refresh rate
for rebuilding the directory cached by the Server. The default is 60
(seconds).

There is also a cached copy of the directory on the client. The
ClientReportExplorer.RefreshVolumeDirectory method can be used to retrieve
the latest from the server. When the ClientReportExplorer is displayed, the
user can select View | Refresh Volume to retrieve the latest directory from
the server.

Nard,

I think that you don't understand my question. Whether I don't have an
active session created, the method
ClientReportCatalog.RefreshVolumeDirectory(vVolumeName) does not work. Try
it. I need to create a new session on client session. Could you explain me
how can I do that on Client Side? Thanks.

I think I still don't understand. As a test I opened
RBServer\Demos\Clients\Client Report Catalog\Dynamic List. I added a button
to the Form and in the button OnClick I coded:

procedure TfrmClientReports.Button1Click(Sender: TObject);
begin
FClientReportCatalog.ClearSession;
FClientReportCatalog.SessionID := '';
FClientReportCatalog.RefreshVolumeDirectory(FVolumeName);
ShowMessage(FClientReportCatalog.SessionID);
end;

The above code clears the session and the sessionID and then when
RefreshVolumeDirectory is called, a new sessionID is assigned by the server.
