A while back, Duane wrote an article in this forum detailing how to do an ajax postback that resulted in the Excel document downloading. It was quite good and pretty deep, but I never got a chance to implement it.
Now I am back to try it, and I can't find the article. It looks like somebody cleaned out the forums, deleting some good content in the process.
Can somebody please retrieve it?
And can somebody please give your developers someplace they can post this kind of stuff without worrying about a moderator deleting it?
Hello Rob Hudson,
The fix for development issue 89817 is now in the latest service release. You can download within My Keys & Downloads page.
Let me know if you have any questions with this matter. Thank you.
Just pinging you guys to see if there has been an update to this issue for the next release.
I am experiencing more pressure from the client to have a solution, and I need to know whether I should wait for Infragistics.
Thanks for the update on the thread.
For the performance improvements on using the Excel library I have logged bug id 89817 on this using the sample code that was provided in this thread to have our engineers look into this. Also private case CAS-72672-JNFCD2 has been created and you can find this case number in the support activity page here: https://ko.infragistics.com/Membership/MySupport.aspx.
Understood... Duane, the reason I didn't have handling for the try/catch block is that my intent was to just ignore the error... I was just trying to get a build time.
I understand (while being surprised) about it not being thread safe. I will submit a feature request.
The objects in the Excel library are not thread safe, so you should not be using Parallel.ForEach to populate a Worksheet with data. You can submit a feature request to make these objects thread safe. Until that is implemented, you should be populating the objects synchronously.
