Hello, I have orderEntity and fetched all the customers related to this order using prefetchpath, but I am unable to bind it to the report. Can somebody help me pleasee. I followed devExpress examples using DataSet and DataTable to build the master-detail report, they work fine, but unable to bind the report to our Entities.

Is there any senior who can share his experience.

Thanks

Thanks, I got ths support from the below post...

http://www.llblgen.com/tinyforum/Messages.aspx?ThreadID=4010&HighLight=1

Yes I update the same post some time ago by saying I got the support, but I am back again because i am unable to achive what I was looking for. Actually by following the above post, I did build my master detail report, but now I am getting problem in displaying summaries. Yes for every group there is a Item Price column which I want to show the sum of that ItemPrice at the end of the group. I am trying to achive it in Group Footer but I am unable to achive it.

Below are my questions.

1. Is it possible to use EntityCollection component with DevExpress XtraReports. If yes then how can I achive it and If no then how can we use LLBLGEN with DevExpress XtraReports.

I have found this resource from DevExpress Documentation site which is mentioned below, does our genereated TypedList implements the same interfaces what they are recomanding.? Can we achive the samething by following their article.?

DevExpress Documentation http://documentation.devexpress.com/#XtraReports/CustomDocument4046

I have searched alot on this forum but could't find proper answer. I appreicate if somebody experience person show some light.

Thanks and regards.

sorry friend, I update the post.

Thanks

Are you using the Adapter or the SelfServicing templateSet?

I am using Adapter templateSet. I wish I could only use Entities rather typedlists with xtraReports

Ok, once again. I manged to build my report (Group By). I used TypedList and also am able to calculate summaries as well.

Thanks

Our TypedLists do not implement ITypedList, so you will not be able to use them as described in the linked article. What issue do you get when trying to create summaries using entities ?

Matt

Entities do implement ITypedList, or better: an entity collection does. It's bound to the control through an entityview2 which does implement the ITypedList interface.

A TypedList (yes this is confusing ) is a datatable. A datatable is bound to a control through a dataview, which also implements ITypedList.

So long story short: binding an entity collection should work .

Thanks everybody who have responded. I will try to bind the entities via entityview2 to xtrareport and will post update here.

One more question. I tried to bind the report runtime, after dragging the EntityCollection component on XtraReports and after selecting the factory when I try to save the project VS2010 gives error. Says could't convert entity collection to ........

Sorry forgot the error, but I can provide the complete error tomorrow.

Do you know what is casuing this error.

I am able to bind the entities on the forms, can I use the same (design time features ) on the reports or not ?

Thanks
