All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Serializable

public class Trigger
extends java.lang.Object
implements java.io.Serializable

A trigger is a runtime value that will be evaluated at runtime and can be accessed after a report has rendered. The state of the trigger will not be saved with the rpt file. Sample usage:

      Fields fields = eng.getFields();
      FormulaField formula = fields.addFormulaField( "trigger", "23 >= 24", FormulaField.FORMULA_PROPERTY );
      Trigger trigger = eng.getTrigger();
      trigger.setFormula( formula );
      eng.execute();                      //render the report
      eng.getPageCount();                 //wait until finish
      Boolean value = trigger.getValue(); //request the trigger value
