Creating New IBO Pipeline Initiative

rbuser

Hi all,

Most of us had some problems regarding to IBOPipeline. So, if someone from
D-M is willing to give me some directions how to write a pipeline component
from scratch i will try to do it. The recent versions of IBOPipeline are
just rewriten versions of an old component from a guy that is unreachable
for me so i couldn't ask him for help. Anyone who uses IBO 4 and
ReportBuilder7 is welcome to help.

I downloaded your pipeline from the IBO website. It looks like the only
difficult part is supporting the bookmark capability in the pipeline over
the IBO dataset. Try removing all the new events, methods and properties in
the download and try to simply create the simplest version of the
TppIBOPipeline class. I think you should just rewrite the bookmarking
support on the current TppIBOPipeline class instead of rewriting the whole
thing. First, try building some test scaffolding to test the bookmarking.
Then create test cases that simply create bookmarks and try to test that the
pipeline can support navigation with bookmarks.

Cheers,
