Declaration

C#

void SetupBeforePrint(
    XtraReport report,
    ReportParametersObjectBase parametersObject,
    CriteriaOperator criteria,
    bool canApplyCriteria,
    SortProperty[] sortProperty,
    bool canApplySortProperty
)

VB.NET

Sub SetupBeforePrint(
    report As XtraReport,
    parametersObject As ReportParametersObjectBase,
    criteria As CriteriaOperator,
    canApplyCriteria As Boolean,
    sortProperty As SortProperty(),
    canApplySortProperty As Boolean
)

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
report	XtraReport	An XtraReport object that specifies the report.
parametersObject	ReportParametersObjectBase	A ReportParametersObjectBase object that specifies report parameters.
criteria	CriteriaOperator	A CriteriaOperator object used to filter data.
canApplyCriteria	Boolean	true if the criteria can be applied; otherwise, false.
sortProperty	SortProperty[]	An array of SortProperty objects that specifies the sort order.
canApplySortProperty	Boolean	true if sorting can be applied; otherwise, false.

Remarks

If you want to print a report in code, you should use the SetupBeforePrint method that executes the IReportDataSourceHelper.SetupReport method and triggers the IReportDataSourceHelper.BeforeShowPreview event.

If there is no need to apply criteria and sorting, and pass report parameters, use another overload of the SetupBeforePrint method that takes a single report parameter. An example on how to use this overload is available in the How to: Print a Report Without Displaying a Preview topic.
