C++ UFL for 64-bit Crystal Reports

On 32-bit Windows, COM-based and U25 type UFLs are supported. We have a couple of those style UFLs in use today.
Now we want to move to 64-bit Crystal Reports.
What are our options? I can't find any mentioning developing C++ based UFL solutions for 64-bit Crystal Reports on this site. All we can find is documentation on .Net UFLs.
Anyone knows if the U25 and COM UFLs are still supported on 64-bit Crystal Reports? Where can I get more information. Thanks.

Hello,
What 64 bit version of Crystal? Crystal Reports Designer is a 32 bit application, there is no 64 bit version of it. And the COM UFL's use 32 bit technology so converting to 64 bit isn't required, they should work by thunking the values back and forth.
There is a kbase article - 1525014  Sample .NET UFL and Localization Formula function  but it may not be released yet which includes a new sample UFL written in C#, which is about as close to C++ as you'll get. The readme file tells you how to GAC the ufl so CR can find it as well as the .NET applciation you write.
If you are using the version of Crystal Reports runtime that comes with Visual Studio it is version 10 and that version did not support the new unicode UFL noted above.
Thank you
Don

  • Windows 7 64-bits Crystal report and Azalea (barcode)

    Hello,
    We use Crystal Report XI and Azalea (barcode) to print barcode from our Windows application for many years.
    Now we want to use Windows 7 64-bits. The barcode printing desn't work. Azalea answers they don't have any 64 bits library.
    What is the Crystal Report solution for printing barcode with Windows 7 64-bits ?
    Best regards.

    If Azalea doesn't have a 64 bit library your only option is to stay 32 bit.
    Crystal Reports is a 32 bit application so 64 bit is not an issue. Everything must be in 32 bit version to work with CR. And the only versions of CR supported on Windows 7 is CR XI R2 with Service Pack 6 and CR 2008 with Service Pack 2. No other versions will be test nor supported on Windows 7, best effort only.
    Thank you

    I was wondering if you would be able to assist me, we currently use Crystal Reports version 8.5 and Crystal Xcelsius 4.5. I need to find out if these programs require local administrator rights on the computer they are to be used on to a) Install properly and B) run from that computer by a user without local administrative rights for that machine.

  • Creating List of Values for Parameters in Crystal Report

    Dear All,
    I have created a Report using Crystal Report XI and integrated that with VB Dot Net.  It uses a Stored Procedure (SQL 2000) to retrieve data.  The stored procedure has some parameters.  When I run the VB dot net exe, it prompts for the parameters.  However, I like to pass a List of Values to the Parameters, which the end user must select from the same.
    How can I create a List of Values and attach to the Crystal Report.
    Please help me in this regard,
    Naren.

    Are you trying to set a bunch of default values (e.g.; 1st name, last name, address, order number, etc.), or an actual List of Values?
    Also, remember to search the forums for possible solutions. When I enter "parameter" in the search box, I get over 7 pages of links...
    The [notes|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/advancedsearch?cat=sdn_ossnotes&query=&adv=true] database and [articles|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/businessobjects-articles] are great information resources also.
    Oh, and confirm exact version of CR used.

  • Settings for the check crystal reports

    Hey all,
    I have created a custom check printing crystal report. Now i have to tell the process to pick my custom crystal report instead of APY2021-.
    Can anyone tell me what should i do to print the checks according to my custom crystal report. Can you provide with navigations because i am new to financials.
    Thank you,
    Bye.

    Hey Sachin,
    I went to the path you have told me. It is showing the process name as APY2021-.
    But if i print a check now, It is not printing through APY2021-. It is printing through a custom Crystal report called Checkprint.rpt, which is inside a subfolder "custom".
    I dont know how it is printing through the custom crystal report.
    Can you please tell me where should we see for that.

  • Crystal Reports for VS2010 versus Crystal Reports 2011

    I'm not exactly new to CR, however, I have been away from it for a while and am now being tasked to work with this product again. Alot has changed in that period of time. I'm currently using Visual Studio 2010 and I have learned that Crystal Reports is no longer integrated within Visual Studio but available from SAP as a free download as Crystal Reports 2010 and will essentially be a plug in to the Visual Studio 2010 development environment once installed.
    In my effort to find a sample database as well as any additional documentation related to Crystal Reports 2010, I'm finding and/or seeing a lot of information related to Crystal Reports 2011 and little or nothing related to Crystal Reporst 2010.
    1. Is CR2011 a seperate, stand-alone product versus CR2010, which is now a seperate download and plug in product to VS2010?
    2. Are there any sample databases, sample reports, sample .NET code available for CR2010?
    3. Do I have it all wrong and CR2010 is really CR2011 and SAP is just trying to confuse everybody?
    Marlon

    Hi Marlon,
    1. Is CR2011 a seperate, stand-alone product versus CR2010, which is now a seperate download and plug in product to VS2010?
    CR 2011 is the Full standalone Report Designer, no SDK with it. The CR for VS 2010 is the plugin that was shipped within the VS .NET as an included plug-in , you just have to install it separately with VS 2010. The complimentary SDK is in CR for VS 2010 which has the matching CR 2011 report Designer.
    2. Are there any sample databases, sample reports, sample .NET code available for CR2010?
    No, but you can use the ones from our download page: These are for[ CR XI R2|https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100005852352008E/cr_xi_xtreme_rep_smpl_en.zip] and is based on the old reports that you are familiar with.
    For sample code see this [page|http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/BOBJ/CrystalReportsSDKSampleApplications], lots of them available.
    RAS is the new Report Designer RCAPI SDK and you can find the help for the SDK from the same page you downloaded the installer.
    3. Do I have it all wrong and CR2010 is really CR2011 and SAP is just trying to confuse everybody?
    We are trying to confuse everyone... just kidding. It's the way the latest builds are released. CR 2011 has no SDK and CR for VS 2010 is the SDK for CR 2011.
    You'll also notice that CR for VS 2010 is version 13 and CR 2011 is version 14 which matches Business Objects Enterprise Version 4.0
    Thanks

  • Question - Best practice data source for Vs2008 and Crystal Reports 2008

    I have posted a question here
    CR2008 using data from .NET data provider (ADO.NET DATASET from a .DLL)
    but think that perhaps I need general community advise on best practice with data sources.
    In Crystal reports I can choose the data source location from any number of connection types, eg ado.net(xml), com, oledb, odbc.
    Now in regard to the post, the reports have all been created in Crxi 6.3, upgraded to Crystal XI and now Im using the latest and greatest. I wrote the Crystal Reports 6.3/ XI reports back in the day to do the following: The Reports use a function from COM Object which returns an ADO recordset which is then consumed fine.
    So I don't want to rewrite all these reports, of which there are many.
    I would like to know if any developers are actually using .NET Class libraries to return ADO.NET datasets via the method call or if you are connecting directly to XML data via whatever source ( disk, web service, http request etc).
    I have not been able to eliminate the problem listed in the post mentioned above, which is that the Crystal Report is calling the .NET class library method twice before displaying the data. I have confirmed this by debugging the class lib.
    So any guidance or tips is appreciated.
    Thanks

    This is already being discuss in one of your other threads. Let's close this one out and concentrate on the one I've already replied to.
    Thanks

  • Crystal reports for Eclipse vs Crystal reports Developer Edition

    hi guys,
      what is the difference between CR4E and CR Developer edition in the context of using it in a J2ee application?
    As far i know the below are the differences
    1.CR4E has a better JRC than the JRC that comes with the CR Developer
    2. CR4E is free and CR Developer is not for free
    3. CR Developer has a better UI for Report desigining whereas CR4E doesnt have . It is possible to get a trial version of CRDeveloper to design and use the JRC of CR4E to execute the report from a J2EE application
    is there is something that CR developer has which CR4E doesnt have when it comes to integrating with an J2EE application
    Thanks,

  • Crystal report input prompt..for sub report

    Hi All,
    I developed crystal report and retreived the fields from the exsiting Query.Now for  enhancing the report i must creat a sub report for th eexisting one.In this case iam getting 2 input prompts one for the old report and the other one is for the enhanced sub report .But the requirement is tha t, the report must get only one input prompt for both the reports. Is this can be possible from the Query end or the crystal report end?
    YVL

    Hi Vijayalakshmi
    You can apply just one input parameter for the main report and then link your subreport with this parameter.
    Once you link the subreport, you would get only one prompt for inputting parameter values.
    This way you can optimize the performance of the report as well.
    For more information about linking subreports you can refer to the user guide for the respective crystal reports version you are using.
    Hope this helps!!!

  • Crystal Reports VS 2008 "The request could not be submitted for background processing"

    Hi,
    I am going to try to explain this issue the best I can. Please let me know if you need any other information or have any ideas as I have exhausted my resources. We have an ASP.NET application that has highly formatted crystal reports in them that the users can export as PDFs. All reports export without a problem when the application is run off of our desktops. The reports use a sql server authenticated user, executing stored procedures, and each subreport is linked by the main parameter. We are using Visual Studio 2008 version 3.5 SP1 with Crystal Reports Basic for Visual Studio 2008 on Windows 7 Enterprise SP1. We have designed the reports in Crystal Reports XI Release 2 (11.5.12.1838) and imported them into the ASP.NET application. When trying to export the reports as PDFs from the development or production servers, we get the error message below for some, not all, reports:
    System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0x800002AD):  Error in File C:\Windows\TEMP\KeyAccountProfile {9FA5C095-77A2-425D-AC6B-8BB66B435336}.rpt: The request could not be submitted for background processing.     at CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.Controllers.ReportSourceClass.Export(ExportOptions pExportOptions, RequestContext pRequestContext)     at CrystalDecisions.ReportSource.EromReportSourceBase.ExportToStream(ExportRequestContext reqContext)
    We have cleared the temp directory on the servers before exporting and are still receiving the error. We have installed Crystal Reports Basic Runtime for Visual Studio (10.5.2.0) on both servers. I have identified the underlying issue to one stored procedure/subreport that is causing the report to fail. The weird thing is, when we change the connection to point to development, the stored procedure/subreport runs fine for the report that generates an error when run from production, and the data is the exact same. I have tried rebuilding the subreport but the error still appears even though it runs fine for other reports.
    I have been through the document below, and othe similar issues in the forums, but still have not found a resolution. I was trying to use the "modules" application put since this is an ASP.NET application I am unsure of which executable I should be looking at.
    http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/boc/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/50a6f5e8-8164-2b10-7ca4-b5089df76b33?QuickLink=index&overridelayout=true&36837934524320
    Thanks in advance for your assistance,

    OK.. I did some more investigating on this today. I have found out when I move the sub report that generates the error under another sub report, the sub report in question runs without issue. But when I try and move the sub report that produces the error above any other sub report, the error still generates. Can this get any weirder.... FYI.. there is a total of ten sub reports on this report.

    Hi Brad
    I'm not sure that Modules would show us anything in this case, so let's try a few other things:
    1) Make sure you are using SP 1 for Crystal Reports Basic Runtime for Visual Studio:
    Crystal Reports for VS 2005 and VS 2008 Updates & Runtime Downloads
    2) Seeing as this works on dev, this may be some db inconsistency so enabling the report option "Verify on 1st Print" will be a good idea.
    3) Double check the database client and make sure the same client is used on dev and deployed systems. Actually I take back my Modules negative as this is where it may prove useful. Once you have the Modules logs, look at who is loading the crpe32.dll, then look at that process and see the client dlls.
    4) Check the printer driver; see if there are any updates. Try a different printer driver.
    Ten subreports is not too bad, though not that good either as you are loading the report engine with at minimum 11 simultaneous reports (each subreport is considered to be a report). If a subreport is in a details section and the details section returns a 100 records, you are running 100 + 1 reports. This may lead to memory issues, which may lead to the error.
    If I was a betting man, I'd put most of my money on the printer driver (based on your last addition to your post). What ever money I had left would go to some database issue (be it actual data or client related).

  • Best practise BW Query design for Crystal Reports integration

    Hi all,
    I am looking for a guide on best practices when designing a BW Query to be used as data foundation for a Crystal Report.
    The scenario is that I am responsible for developing the Crystal Reports part, but not the BW Query part, therefore I would like to provide a list of best practises to the person who is responsible for the Query, this way make sure that the integration will work as good as possible. The setup is of course using BO Integration Kit for SAP.
    An example is how to use authorization variables in the query to provide data security. This is just one example, there are problably a number of other things to be aware of. A document containing suggestions for best practices is what I am looking for, or if the document does not exist, input to what should be on such a list.
    Thank you in advance.
    Regards,
    Rasmus

    Hi Rasmus,
    in regards to the Best Practices for Crystal Reports you can leverage all the knowledge you have on the Query Design today already. if you not the person for designing the query I think it is important to make sure people designing the queries do understand how Crystal Reports is leveraging the elements from the BI Query.
    /people/ingo.hilgefort/blog/2008/02/19/businessobjects-and-sap-part-2
    You should try to put as much as possible into the BI query from the logic point of view.
    and you can also build common BI queries - there is no need to build a BI query for each report.
