GridControl.ExportToHtml(String, String, String, Boolean) Method

OBSOLETE

Use the ExportToHtml method instead

SECURITY-RELATED CONSIDERATIONS

Using file paths sourced from untrusted input may expose unauthorized files or allow unintended file access. Always validate and normalize all external paths to prevent path manipulation.

Exports the data displayed by the GridControl.DefaultView (the GridControl.MainView or the currently maximized detail View) to the specified HTML file with the specified title, using the specified character encoding. The output file can be compressed (secondary characters e.g. spaces are removed) if required.

Remarks

This method indirectly calls the PrintingSystemBase.ExportToHtml method of the XtraPrinting Library. If this library is not available the method does nothing. For details on the ExportToHtml method see the PrintingSystemBase.ExportToHtml topic.

For general information on exporting data in the Grid Control refer to Export Overview.
