How to define Maximum Processing Time

[charles_gagnon]

Hello,

  I'm working with Crystal Reports for Visual Studio SP9 in an ASP.NET application using Visual Studio 2010.

  If I modify the MaxNumOfRecords option, I'm able to limit the number of records a report can retrieve but I have not found how to limit the processing time of a report event if the error message let me believe it should be possible : "A processing limit was reached. Error in File Report.rpt: Max processing time or Max records limit reached".

How does I define a Maximum Processing Time for a report?

Thank you.

Hi Charles

Is this the exact error message?

"A processing limit was reached. Error in File Report.rpt: Max processing time or Max records limit reached".

Can you include a screenshot of the error?

Is this error coming from an app you coded, or an app developed by a 3rd party?

Hello Ludek,

    Yes it's the exact message.

     It's an web app I have coded. The error message was expected because I have used this piece of code to limit the number of records by Crystal Reports.

Dim objOpt As CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.ReportDefModel.ReportOptions = m_objRpt.ReportClientDocument.ReportOptions.Clone(True)

         objOpt.MaxNumOfRecords = 10

         objOpt.ErrorOnMaxNumOfRecords = True

         m_objRpt.ReportClientDocument.ModifyReportOptions(objOpt)

I would like to do the same but with a limit of time.

The error is return by Crystal Report and is displayed by the Crystal Viewer.

Thank you.

Hi Charles

There is no API for time out. The timeout value is specified in the registry under EnterpriseRequestTimeout, which is 10min by default (600000 milliseconds).
