Save two files in different locations

Hello Albina,

I did not try it myself, but just a thought:

If you want ot output a second file to a different context, you would need to close the first output object (with writeReport() ) and then create a new output object and set a new path.

Hello Guys,



I have a problem similar to Albina's. I have to extract different files in different folders. I have image file that is retrieved from a model:

var image = modelDef.Graphic(false, false, nLocale, false);
var contextCurrentTempPath = getSubDir(itemTypeCode, itemType) + "\\"; //custom function to get the right subdirectory
Context.setSelectedPath(contextCurrentTempPath);
var output = Context.createOutputObject();

image.Save(output, fileName);
Context.addOutputFileName(fileName, Constants.LOCATION_OUTPUT);

This works by itself, but the function that calls that code, also calls another piece of code, which should create an Excel sheet.

Context.setSelectedPath(rootDir);//rootDir is the path where the Excel file should be save
workbook.write();
Context.addOutputFileName("ExcelFilename.xls");

Currently, the way the code works is that it saves the JPG image files in the same location as the Excel file - rootDir .

I figured that this is because all the files that were created during the report run, are transferred over to the target dir

Context.setSelectedPath(rootDir)

, only when the report is finished.

Therefore I though that there should be a way to transfer the generated files while the report is still running. I tried using the following code:

var image = modelDef.Graphic(false, false, nLocale, false);
var contextCurrentTempPath = getSubDir(itemTypeCode, itemType) + "\\"; //custom function to get the right subdirectory
Context.setSelectedPath(contextCurrentTempPath);
var output = Context.createOutputObject();

Context.addOutputFileName(fileName, Constants.LOCATION_OUTPUT);
output.OutGraphic(image, 100, 210, 297);
output.WriteReport();

Unfortunately, that did not work - no image files are generated at all, even in the server's temp directory.
I would appreciate any suggestion or help.
