RBuilder.ini is creating outside the designer

rbuser

Hello,

if the enduser of a report is previewing the report (outside the
designer, there isn't a tppDesigner Component), RBuilder.ini is
creating. This only happens if the application is restart. This means,
that only the first previewing is creating this file.
Can I prevent this? We have some problems with this file on some machines.

Best wishes
Bernhard

Hi Bernard,

Open your project and review every unit - find each occurrence of
TppDesigner and update the TppDesigner.IniStorageName and IniStorageType
properties.

The location of RBuilder.ini can be controlled by the
TppDesigner.IniStorageName and IniStorageType properties.

The default location for RBuilder.ini is

($LocalAppData)\RBuilder\RBuilder.ini

which at run-time resolves the user's local application data folder. This is
consistent with the latest Windows security standards.

When migrating projects created with older ReportBuilder versions, check the
value of TppDesigner.IniStorageName and manually update to

($LocalAppData)\RBuilder\RBuilder.ini


There is also an IniStorageType called IniNone. With this setting, no 'ini'
data is saved.
