extending report server to support printing

Hi all
I am following the 'Deploying the Printer Delivery Sample' in order to add
printing functionality to reports.
After compiled code was put in both the reports server's and manager's bin
directories( and thier config files were
set accordingly), I can see the new printing delivery extension listed by
the server side (using the report server web service method
.ListExtensions(ExtensionTypeEnum.Delivery);).
But.. no sign for that extension when i open reports in the html viewer nor
in the subscriptions deliveries options..
I am not sure exactly where should i expect to see it if at all.. should i
create a button which will call the printing extension on click event'
I know that in the reports manager it should be listed in the subscription
deliveries options.
Another thing is that i am not sure i have added the codegroup section in
the *policy.config files correctly.
In the reports manager config file i had to remove it because it generated a
'no object reference' error..
I guess this should interfier at some point.
Thanks alot for your attention
ReaHi Rea:
Check Bryan's blog for some clarification on the codegroup placement:

Extended Proc

Hi,
I have compiled a dll in delphi but I cannot use it as extended procedure(it
always returns null). Here is my source and usage in sql server:
--
library testdll;
uses
SysUtils,
Classes;
{$R *.res}
function xp_a:string;
begin
{for test}
result:='10';
end;
exports xp_a;
end.
________________________________________
_
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER OFF
GO
SET ANSI_NULLS OFF
GO
exec sp_addextendedproc N'xp_a', N'testdll.dll'
GO
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER OFF
GO
SET ANSI_NULLS ON
GO
________________________________________
_
declare @.a varchar(10)
exec master..xp_a @.a output
select @.a as output
--
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
LeilaYou can not return a string, you need to return it as an output parameter
instead, an XP always and only returns an integer.
See for examples and helper libraries:
