Parameters

Format
The format of the rendering extension for which to retrieve the resource. A list of supported extensions may be obtained by calling the ListRenderingExtensions method.

DeviceInfo
The device-specific settings used by the rendering extension.

MimeType
The MIME type of the resource.

Return Value

The rendering extension resource as a Base 64-encoded byte array.

Remarks

The DeviceInfo argument passed to this method much be the same as that specified in the call to the Render method.

An example of a rendering resource that is returned by the GetRenderResource method is the plus (+) image, which is used to expand groups in the HTML rendering extension. The resource that the method returns depends on the DeviceInfo parameter that is supplied. For more information about device information settings for rendering extensions, see Reporting Services Device Information Settings.
