public class Subreport extends AbstractFontElement implements SubreportProperties, TextProperties, com.inet.report.ReferenceHolder, BorderProperties
Engines cannot hold more than one datasource, so if you need a report that uses data from two or more datasources, you have to useSubreport
objects in the report.
Example:
You have one database to store private data of your employees. In another database (a table in the same database should also work, but no subreports are required here) you store the sales of each of your shops. So, if you want to create a report, that displays all sales according to the employee you have to create some fields in the main report that shows the employees and a subreport that have some fields to show the sales. To realize the representation of sales according to employees insert aSubreportLink
using the employee id field in the main report (i.e. Employees.Id) and the employee id in the subreport (i.e. Sales.Employee-Id). Now each employee will be followed by its sales, where the sales were shown in a single object - theSubreport
object.
This class is part of the RDC.
