PDF and Stream

rbuser

Hi all,
I've used for long time RB 7.
Now i'm evaluating RB 10 for use with BDS 2006 and i've downloaded the
enterprise trial.
I'm wondering if there's a way to print a PDF report directly to a stream or
some kind of in-memory structure instead of a file, 'cause the generated report
has to be sent to a web-browser.
This is the scenario i have in mind:
ASP .NET webapp calls a custom, Delphi written ActiveX object that streams back
a PDF-generated report.
If this isn't the right way to do this job please let me know your opinion.
Thank you very much
Gianantonio

Hi Gianantonio,

Take a look at Demo 109 located in the \RBuilder\Demos\1. Reports\...
directory. This demos shows how you can use the OutputStream property to
export directly to a Stream rather than a file.
