Code Explorer Events View

See Also      Locator

Previous  Top  Next

The Events view of the Code Explorer is displayed by right-clicking the left pane and selecting Events from the context menu.

_bm15

This view displays a listing of all components contained within the report. The right pane displays any events associated with the currently selected component. Selecting an event will display the event handler, if one exists.

This view is good for viewing all report objects and their events.

In the treeview, you will notice small arrow shaped images to the left of some nodes. These are Compilation State Indicators. They are used to tell you where your code is and what state it is in. There are five possible indicators:

         No symbol. Indicates that this component does not have any event handlers assigned, nor does it contain any components which have event handlers.  
 
   _bm16      Indicates that this component does not have any event handlers, but contains components which do. The red color indicates that one or more of the nested components has event handlers which do not compile.  
 
   _bm17      Indicates that this component contains event handlers and that somewhere on this branch there is code that does not compile. If there is no code contained in components below this one, then the problem code is in this component. However, if there is code below this component, the problem may be in a child component's event handlers, in this component's event handlers or both. Note: If a child component's code does not compile, the parent component will still display a red arrow even though its own code may compile.  
 
   _bm18      Indicates that this component does not have any event handlers assigned, but contains other components which do. The green color indicates that the event handlers of the contained components have compiled successfully.  
 
   _bm19      Indicates that this component has event handlers assigned. The green color indicates that these event handlers, and any assigned to components nested within this one, have successfully compiled.
