ThinReports Example: Basic List

thinreports-example-basic-list.rb

# coding: utf-8

require 'rubygems'
require 'thinreports'

report = ThinReports::Report.new :layout => 'basic_list.tlf'

30.times do |t|
  # Internaly #start_new_page() method is called,
  # the page break automatically.
  #
  # [NOTE] In thinreports < 0.7.5:
  #   report.page.list(:default).add_row do |row|
  #     :
  report.list.add_row do |row|
    row.item(:detail).value("row##{t}")
  end
end

# [NOTE] In thinreports < 0.7.7:
#   report.generate_file 'basic_list.pdf'
report.generate :filename => 'basic_list.pdf'

This basic list code is not coherent with the tlf file example:

'report.list' expects a list with default id and in the template you just have a list with basic_list id.

row.item(:detail) expects an item with id detail but, again, in the template you have an item with a different id: default.

Thank you pointed out. I have made ​​corrections to the basic_list.tlf.
