Class ReportInstance
- Namespace
- DocWright.Reporting.Processing
- Assembly
- DocWright.Reporting.dll
A report bound to its data: parameters resolved, datasets read, data regions grouped, sorted and filtered, variables evaluated. It has no geometry; pagination turns it into pages.

Remarks
What is public, and why it is so little. The instance tree — group instances, cells, their rows — is what the paginator reads, and it stays internal until the paginator exists: a public shape designed before its only consumer would be the wrong one, and every public member is kept for good. What a host can use now is here: the parameters the run used, the culture it evaluated in, the diagnostics, and Evaluate(string) for any expression at report scope.
Threads. Nothing is computed after ReportProcessor returns it, so an instance may be read from several threads at once.
Properties
- Culture
Gets the culture expressions were evaluated in: the report's language, or en-US.
- Definition
Gets the definition the report was run from.
- Diagnostics
Gets everything the run reported, in the order it was reported.
- ExecutionTime
Gets the instant the report ran at, as the options supplied it.
- Parameters
Gets the parameters the report ran with, in document order.
Methods
- Dispose()
Releases the rows the instance holds. Further use raises ObjectDisposedException.
- Evaluate(ReportExpression)
Evaluates a parsed expression at report scope against the run's data.
- Evaluate(string)
Evaluates an expression at report scope — outside every data region — against the run's data:
=Sum(Fields!Sales.Value, "Sales"),=Variables!Title.Value,=Parameters!Region.Label.
