public function GetRenderResource(
    Format : String,

    MimeType : String
) : byte[]

Parameters

  • Format
    Type: System.String
    The format of the rendering extension for which to retrieve the resource (HTML5, XML, IMAGE, and so on). For a list of available rendering extensions, use the ListExtensions method.
  • DeviceInfo
    Type: System.String
    The device-specific settings used by the rendering extension.

Return Value

Type: array<System.Byte[]
The rendering extension resource as a Base 64-encoded byte array. For more information about this data type, see "Byte Structure" in the Microsoft .NET Framework documentation.

Remarks

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.
