Intellisense for custom assemblies?


Intellisense for custom assemblies? Chris G.
11/9/2006 12:35:02 PM
sql server reporting services:
SSRS 2005

I am using a custom assembly with my reports.

When I reference my custom assembly using the =Code.<assembly reference>
syntax in the expressions in my report, Intellisense only shows the methods
(that I guess are) associated with the standard System.Object:

Equals
GetHashCode
GetType
ReferenceEquals
ToString

I do not see any of the Public methods defined in my custom assembly.

Is there a way to have that information provided within the Report Designer
when I use the "Edit Expression" dialog box, or is this a limitation in
Report Designer?

Hello Chris,

This issue is a limitation in the Report Desinger. Since when you have put
some custom code in the report, the IDE could not compile and get the
method name immediately. You need to copy the method name to the expression
where you want to use the code.

If you have any concern about this issue, you could send your feedback
directly to the product team:

Thank you for your understanding!

Sincerely,

Wei Lu

Wei Lu,

Thank you for your help. That is what I figured...that it is a limitation in
the product. Too bad, since having Intellisense support would be a nice
feature and would be consistent with the rest of the Visual Studio designers.

Hi Wei Lu,

Is there a particular reason that you are not able to do this? I would think
Microsoft would want to proactively collect feedback on its products and not
have to rely on customers finding the time to report enhancement requests or
bugs on their own.
