This sample project demonstrates how to use a custom data adapter. First, add a custom data adapter:
...
// Clearing standard data adapters, if necessary
StiOptions.Services.Databases.Clear();
// Adding a Custom PostgreSQL data adapter
StiOptions.Services.Databases.Add(new CustomPostgreSQLDatabase());
StiOptions.Services.DataAdapters.Add(new CustomPostgreSQLAdapterService());
...
Finally, add a connection to the report:
...
var report = new StiReport();
// Adding a connection to the report from code
var database = new CustomPostgreSQLDatabase("CustomData1", "Server=127.0.0.1; Port=5432; Database=myDataBase; User Id=myUsername; Password=myPassword;");
report.Dictionary.Databases.Add(database);
report.Design();
...
In the screenshot below you can see the result of the sample code:
