 Line View

LineViewMockup is a Java Bean that subclasses java.awt.Canvas, implementing all of the MERGe Line View Reports features.

In the following diagram you can see the role of LineViewMockup in the reports drawing process:

 

What is the relationship between LineViewMockup and PageLayout? I have tried to make each one independent from the other, so you can benefit from greater flexibility (you can easily replace one of the two steps of the process of printing -- drawing the page layout and drawing the actual data --with your own code). This comes with a price, of course: you have to setup and call methods for two distinct objects but, as you will see, this is no rocket science. Everything has been thought to be as intuitive as possible.

The icon for this JavaBean is the following:

 

It allows you to do the following things:

  1. Define/get the properties of a Line View report.
  2. Draw the report in a Graphics object, on a per page basis. This means that you can both print on paper and on screen your reports.
  3. Produce an HTML table out of your data.
  4. Load and save .lmr files (lmr stands for Line Mode Report -- it is the standard format MERGe saves Line Mode reports in).
  5. Produce the NetRexx and Java code needed to reproduce the current report from others' code.
  6. Get information about the total number of pages a report will take.
  7. Get information about the maximum horizontal encumbrance (width) of a report.
  8. Show on screen a mockup of the report, because after all this is a Canvas. (Incidentally, this was the original reason for this class name)

You are not forced to use MaxBase databases for your reports, in fact you must pass the actual records information to a LineViewMockup object yourself, and thus they can come from any source you like. Moreover, you can set the following parameters for a given report:

  1. Fields arrangement.
  2. Fields to print and fields to hide.
  3. Fonts and colors information, both for headers and for records.
  4. Fields alignment.

The best way to code a report is to get a skeleton for it from MERGe, then add your own code (if needed), for further customization. However, here follows the complete listing of the LineViewMockup methods.

Use in IBM VisualAge for Javaand Symantec Visual Café: just create an instance of this bean inside a frame (if you want to exploit the fact that LineViewMockup draws a preview of the report in its Graphics space), or use it as a non-visual object (to draw and print into other Graphics objects).

Use of the LineViewMockup class with plain Jdk:
import nrio.reports.LineViewMockup;
Is required in your Java source file.
