Report Binding with InfoObject Object Model (BOE)
The InfoObject object model is supplied with Crystal Reports Server or BusinessObjects Enterprise. It treats all Enterprise objects (reports, users, groups, servers, server groups, folders) as information objects in the system that can be interacted with programmatically. All Enterprise objects in the object model are represented by classes that inherit from InfoObject.
Report binding in this object model means that a report has been retrieved from Crystal Reports Server or BusinessObjects Enterprise and wrapped as an InfoObject instance. This section shows you how to bind a CrystalReportViewer control to an InfoObject instance, and explains the benefits and limitations of using this binding scenario.
