J,
Here is some code that may help. I pulled it from our reporting module
that we created using reportwriter. I may have missed something because
I cut, pasted and changed a word or two to show how we do it.
import dabo.dReportWriter as drw
tmpCursor = self.Form.PrimaryBizobj.getTempCursor()
myreportdata = self.Form.reportbizobj
or
myreportdata = tmpCursor.execute("select * from mydata where...")
rw = drw()
rw.OutputFile = 'myReport.pdf'
--point to the dir where my rfxml is if not in the app's dir, in this
case I am pointing to app\reports
rw.ReportFormXML = os.path.join("reports",'myreport.rfxml')
rw.Cursor = myreportdata.getDataSet()
rw.Encoding = '1252'
rw.write()
if sys.platform == 'win32':
cmd='start "Report Preview" "%s"'%(rw.OutputFile.strip())
else:
cmd='xdg-open "'+rw.OutputFile.strip()+'"'
preview = Popen(cmd, shell=True)
Hope this helps.
