Our Blog

Hello again,

after some inactivity the blog is flourishing again.  It’s not really something I control. When there’s something I want to write in the blog, I suddenly imagine all the bloggers out there about to write the exact same blog post elsewhere, so I just need to do it, and do it fast. This is something I’ve been doing for real, but really applies in general so I think many can benefit from it. I’ve been asked to take *the* report and make it bilingual. But bilingual for real, so this includes everything: Titles, legends, data, everything. This is a topic that has been addressed a number of times,  and yes, there are demos out there. However, the use cases presented in general are either very simple or they start with a project that from the start was known that it had to be bilingual. The reality is, though, rather more complex. I’ll try to write as I progress through this project once I have figured each one of the steps. Let’s do it.

Hello again!

I’m back with the other use case I have in mind for Report-layer scripts. If you haven’t read yet my previous blog post I recommend you do this now as we’ll be building on that with a more complex use case. When I first managed to develop C# in visual studio I rushed to write something I could not build by adapting code snippets only. I made a script that iterated the model relationships and built measures to detect invalid relationships. Not only that, if you build the proper table with the column of the «many» side of the relationship with the measure, you can identify who are the offending values and take action. The script is cool as it is, but again, building each of the tables is quite a pain. Let’s see if we can automate this one. This time I’ll be writing as I author the script. Let’s see how it goes.

Hello!

Today’s post is quite special for me as I wished that this day would come. When I wrote the article to generate the measures for a dynamic data problems button there was a section that read «So, let’s build this button then. This part, unfortunately cannot be scripted, so we’ll need to work a little bit.». Well, maybe this is a thing of the past. Let’s see how can we script this part too. Before going diving in though I want to thank Xavi Paterna for helping me out with his tremendous knowledge of C# programming.
