TECH TIPS
Did You Know…
In the OpenInsight Development Suite 9.0, a new .Net version of the OIPI Print engine is available and is the system default. Current functionality can be maintained by modifying the CFG_OIPI record in the SYSENV file. The value VSPRINTER in field one of the record will use the 'classic' OIPI engine; a value of VSPRINTER2 will use the new .Net engine.
Usage of OIPI or OIPI.NET can be controlled on a per application, per user, or per procedure basis as well. The CFG_OIPI record controls the default behavior for the entire system; however, if there is a CFG_OIPI*<appname> (for example, CFG_OIPI*SYSPROG) SYSENV record, then this application-specific record will control the choice between OIPI and OIPI.NET for that particular application (overriding the system-wide default found in CFG_OIPI, if any). Similarly, if there is a CFG_OIPI*<appname>*<username> (for example, CFG_OIPI*SYSPROG*REVGUY), then this user-specific record will control the choice and override any application or system-wide setting.
Finally, if you do wish to use OIPI.NET for specific reports only, you can modify those reports to call SET_PRINTER2 and GET_PRINTER2 (instead of the normal SET_PRINTER and GET_PRINTER). SET_PRINTER2 and GET_PRINTER2 instruct the system to use OIPI.NET exclusive of the CFG_OIPI records. So you could have all your reports using OIPI except those that you specifically modify to use the new functionality.
