IPrxBulkSettings.FilesMapping

Syntax

FilesMapping: IDictionary;

Description

The FilesMapping property determines mapping of selection element keys and corresponding files.

Comments

This property is useful, for example, if it is necessary to determine which exported files corresponds to a selection on executing batch export.

Example

Executing the example requires that the repository contains a regular report with the REG_REP_PUB identifier. This report should have controls that are common for all report sheets. The controls should be linked with fixed dimensions.

Add links to the Collections, Dimensions, Metabase, Report system assemblies.

Begin
    // Get current repository
    MB := MetabaseClass.Active;
    // Get regular report
    RegRep := MB.ItemById("REG_REPORT_PUB").Bind As IPrxReport;
    // Create an object to export report
    Exporter := New PrxReportExporter.Create;
    // Specify exported report 
    Exporter.Report := RegRep;
    // Determine selection of fixed report dimensions
    SelSet := RegRep.GetBulkSelectionSet("1-2");
    SelSet.Item(0).Selection.SelectElement(1False);
    SelSet.Item(0).Selection.SelectElement(2False);
    SelSet.Item(0).Selection.SelectElement(3False);
    // Determine parameters of batch export execution
    BulkSetting := Exporter.BulkSettings;
    BulkSetting.Enabled := True;
    BulkSetting.SelectionSet := SelSet;
    // Export    
    Exporter.ExportToFile("c:\" + RegRep.Name + ".XLS""XLS");
    // Get mapping of exported files and selection element key    
    filesDict := BulkSetting.FilesMapping;
    // Get selection key array
    keys := filesDict.Keys;
    keysArr := New Variant[keys.Count];
    keys.CopyTo(keysArr, 0);
    // Get array of exported file names
    values := filesDict.Values;
    valuesArr := New Variant[values.Count];
    values.CopyTo(valuesArr, 0);
    // Display mapping of selection element keys and
    // corresponding exported files
    For Each v In keysArr Do
        vValue := filesDict.Item(v);
        stringToMemo := "Key: " + v + " ---> Value: " + vValue;
        Debug.WriteLine(stringToMemo);
    End For;
End Sub

After executing the example the console window displays mapping of selection element keys and corresponding exported files.
