Bring to front in code

rbuser

hi,

I need to bring to front or back some shapes and Labels in RAP code. I
haven't found a solution yet. please help me !

I try to traverse a dataSource like a cursor in code too, but i think
it's not possible. if you have any information about this, I'm
listening

thanks

Hi Emmanuel,

Unfortunately the BringToFront and SendToBack methods are not natively
supported in RAP. You will need to create a pass-thru function to enable
this feature.

Article: Extending RAP
---------------------------------------------------

There are two very simple and powerful techniques to extend the capabilities
of RAP infinitely. These are summarized below and covered in more detail in
the RAP.hlp online help. Demos and tutorials are installed to
RBuilder\Demos\RAP. The tutorial text is located in RAP.hlp.


1. RAP Pass-Through Functions

These are functions that appear in the Language tab of RAP's Code Toolbox.
These functions are written in Delphi and can be called from RAP. RAP's
pass-through function architecture enable's developers to add new built-in
functions to RAP's code toolbox.

2. Extend RAP's RTTI

RAP's Run-time Type information defines what classes and properties can be
accessed via RAP. By default the published properties of any class that is
registered with Delphi's RegisterClass procedure is recognized by RAP. In
addition many of the public properties and methods of ReportBuilder classes
are exposed.

what about retrieving informations from DB in code ? is it possible ?
I'm trying to generate a tab with a procedure, in one table, there are
the titles of the colums, and values are in an other table.

Hi Emmanuel,

As far as retrieving data from a datset component on a form, this is not
possible in RAP without the use of a passthru function. If you created your
datasets in DADE, you could possible join the two tables you need and access
the data directly using the Report.Datapipeline property in Dade. Note that
you will be forced to traverse the data as ReportBuilder traverses it while
generating.
