Using .NET Script Objects
.NET Script Objects make it possible to expand the functionality available in the report designer to go beyond VBScript logic. It is now possible to write custom C# (or any .NET language) classes and expose their public methods such that they can be invoked from within VBScript code blocks that execute during report rendering. This is a powerful capability that overcomes the many limitations of the VBScript language and the further limitations imposed by the report framework VBScript interpreter. Now any operation that can be written in a .NET language can be invoked dynamically by reports. This opens the door to performing file I/O, network calls, and custom data structures, for example.
To expose one or more .NET classes to be accessible as report script objects, perform the following steps:
1 Create an XML file that contains script object definitions. An example is given here (the XML file used for the QAD-provided script objects available for this release, which is already deployed):
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-16"?>
<ScriptObjectsData xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
<ScriptObjects>
<ScriptObjectData>
<Name>QAD_Map</Name>
<Assembly>QAD.Plugin.Reports.ReportFramework</Assembly>
<Class>QAD.Plugin.Reports.ReportFramework.ScriptObjects.Map</Class>
</ScriptObjectData>
<ScriptObjectData>
<Name>QAD_Map2D</Name>
<Assembly>QAD.Plugin.Reports.ReportFramework</Assembly>
<Class>QAD.Plugin.Reports.ReportFramework.ScriptObjects.Map2D</Class>
</ScriptObjectData>
<ScriptObjectData>
<Name>QAD_NumberUtil</Name>
<Assembly>QAD.Plugin.Reports.ReportFramework</Assembly>
<Class>QAD.Plugin.Reports.ReportFramework.ScriptObjects.NumberUtil</Class>
</ScriptObjectData>
</ScriptObjects>
</ScriptObjectsData>
Each .NET class to be exposed as a script object must have a <ScriptObjectData> entry. For each, specify:
• Name — the name that the script object will appear with in the report designer VBScript editor.
• Assembly — the name of the .NET DLL assembly in which the class’ implementation is contained (without the .dll extension).
• Class — the fully namespace-qualified name of the class to expose from within the DLL.
As a naming convention, QAD-shipped script object classes will always have names that begin with a “QAD_” prefix. It is recommended that you not use this prefix when deploying your own custom script object classes, so that they do not conflict with any QAD-shipped script objects (either now or after future upgrades).
2 Deploy the XML file into a ReportScriptObjects subdirectory under any QAD .NET UI plug-in directory on the client machine (for example, C:\Program Files\QAD\QAD Enterprise Applications 2010.1 EE\plugins\qad.plugin.reports\ReportScriptObjects). The name of the XML files is arbitrary, as long as they have an .xml file extension; however, the directory name must be ReportScriptObjects.
3 Deploy the DLLs containing the .NET classes (and any dependent classes) into the same ReportScriptObjects directory as the XML. If the class is already in a DLL that is in a plug-in directory, that will also work. However, DLLs in any directories other than plug-in directories or an immediate plug-in subdirectory named ReportScriptObjects will not be accessible for script object exposure.
4 When the .NET UI is restarted on that client machine, the script objects will be dynamically loaded into the system. This can be verified by opening the Report Resource Designer program, creating a calculated field, and clicking the ellipses (“...”) button in the Text property of the field in the property grid. This will launch the VBScript editor. Click the “Fields>>” button in the lower left of this editor form, and navigate to the Script Objects sub-menu. Your class should no appear in the list of available script objects. If you do not see your script object here, then re-check the above steps, and check the client .NET UI log file for additional error information that might help troubleshoot the issue.
Note: Performing the above steps will only deploy the script objects to the client machine on which the steps are performed. To push this deployment out to all client machines, you must apply the same steps to the plug-in package archive on the home server.
Note: The report script object will expose just the public methods of the .NET class. Non-public methods will not be exposed for report designer usage.
Important: Due to various implementation details, severe performance problems result from the use of certain .NET data types as input parameters or return values of script object methods. Excellent performance is attained by using parameters of type string, bool, or object. Other types (including any numeric types) will result in poor run-time performance when that method is invoked by the report designer. This situation is easy to deal with: when writing the .NET classes that get exposed, simply use the object type for all parameters that have types other than string or bool. Internally, your method can have code to check the type and perform any necessary casting from object to the intended type.
This release of the Reporting Framework contains three Script Object classes provided by QAD:
• QAD_Map — a one-dimensional map data structure that provides array-like capabilities.
• QAD_Map2D — a two-dimensional map data structure that provides array-like capabilities.
• QAD_NumberUtil — performs number-to-word translation and related utilities.
The following sections discuss these classes in more detail.
QAD_Map Script Object
Script Object that implements map functionality exposed in VBScript for use in report designs. The VBScript interpreter in ComponentOne reporting does not support arrays, so this is a way to provide that functionality. This implementation is a map from an integer key to a value. The values are of type object, so they can hold any type passed from VBScript. The keys are restricted to integers since ComponentOne’s VBScript interpreter cannot iterate in loops except for for-loops based on integer indices. Restricting keys to integers restricts them to a type that can be iterated over, and that avoids casting issues arising from hard-coded integers in VBScript appearing as “double” numbers in .NET (causing key lookup failures if not explicitly cast as int in .NET).

QAD_Map2D Script Object
Script Object that implements two-dimensional map functionality exposed in VBScript for use in report designs. The VBScript interpreter in ComponentOne reporting does not support arrays, so this is a way to provide that functionality. This implementation is a map from two integer keys to a value. The values are of type object, so they can hold any type passed from VBScript. The keys are restricted to integers since ComponentOne’s VBScript interpreter cannot iterate in loops except for for-loops based on integer indices. Restricting keys to integers restricts them to a type that can be iterated over, and that avoids casting issues arising from hard-coded integers in VBScript appearing as “double” numbers in .NET (causing key lookup failures if not explicitly cast as int in .NET). This class is a direct generalization of the Map class (which is one-dimensional), and essentially provides an array of arrays, whereas if we only had the Map class, a given report would be limited to a single array.

QAD_Translate VBscript Object
The QAD_Translate script object provides a number of methods to retrieve translated labels from the QAD label master repository. Each label is uniquely identified by a label term key, which points to a number of translated strings in different languages, possibly containing several variations of different lengths (small, medium, and large). Some labels also contain a stacked label variation, which uses the ! symbol within the translated text to denote the positions where the text should be continued on the next line of display.
Note: Fields using stacked labels in the report design should have sufficient height to accommodate the stacked label. For example, if the stacked label indicates two lines of text (has one ! character), then the fields should be twice the normal height for that font.
QAD_Translate.GetBestFitString(labelTerm, field)
Gets the translated string indicated by the input label term key for the user’s language. This method will automatically select the longest of the translated labels (small, medium, or large) that will fit in the specified report field, taking into account the field’s width and font properties.
