Report generation

Question

Hey! 
 
 I created a plugin based on the example from official web site: 
 http://producthelp.sdl.com/SDK/BatchTaskApi/1.0/html/9dea0aec-07de-465c-8944-65f89ac5407f.htm 
 
 I am not sure why but the Sdl Trados Studio don't want to display a created report. Instead of rendering a report, displays an error stack. In the last step of the tutorial was a instruction that a XSL stylesheet file should be created. Unforcunetly I cannot find info how the file should be named, where should be stored and how to link it to report. Any ideas what i can do wrong?

Hello Mikołaj Juśkiewicz , 
 
On the Sdl Community GitHub repository, we have an application that generates report at the end of a batch task process and which might help you: github.com/.../TargetWordCount 
 
With kind regards,

Hello Mikołaj Juśkiewicz I did a deeper investigation and I found out which might be the cause of your error: 1. The report extension should be .xsl instead of .xslt (Visual Studio is automatically creating an .xslt item which should be transformed in .xsl) 2. The report Build Action should be set to Embedded Resource in order to be rendered by Studio. With kind regards, Florentina Caputa
