For more information, see Compiling and Running Code Examples. The following code example uses the GetReportDefinition method to retrieve the definition of a report and store it as an XML document in the local file system:
using System; using System.IO; using System.Web.Services.Protocols; class Sample { public static void Main() { ReportingService2005 rs = new ReportingService2005(); rs.Credentials = System.Net.CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials; string reportName = "/SampleReports/Company Sales"; byte[] reportDefinition = null; System.Xml.XmlDocument doc = new System.Xml.XmlDocument(); try { reportDefinition = rs.GetReportDefinition(reportName); MemoryStream stream = new MemoryStream(reportDefinition); doc.Load(stream); doc.Save(@"C:\Company Sales.rdl"); } catch (SoapException e) { Console.WriteLine(e.Detail.InnerXml.ToString()); } catch (IOException e) { Console.WriteLine(e.Message); } } }
