I’ve read here that pagination is not possible when using RunAndRenderTask; it should be the separate RunTask and RenderTask to achieve this, correct?
Now, the thing is, we’re using BIRT RCP and we cannot implement a separate WebViewer due to our requirements. While I was tracing, however, I noticed that the RCP app uses RunAndRenderTask when I preview the report as HTML. Also, the viewer used is /preview. If I understood this right, for me to get the separated Run & Render tasks, I should be using /frameset.
So, my question is, for BIRT RCP, is there a way to paginate the HTML preview without implementing a separate WebViewer? In short, can I somehow force the base RCP to paginate the HTML in HTML preview? If so, how do I get to the separate Run & Render tasks or use /frameset? I’m not very knowledgeable about emitters and I’m still trying to understand how the HTML emitter was implemented.
Any help would be appreciated!
Found it – set
/frameseton the WebViewer class while the controls for the pagination are in the report engine service.
