getDefaultOutputDestination(): Integer;
The getDefaultOutputDestination method of the JadeReportWriterReport class returns an integer value containing the JadeReportWriterReport class constant representing the default output destination. The output destination can be one of the values listed in the following table.
| Class Constant | Integer Value | Description |
|---|---|---|
| CSV | 3 | Comma-Separated Value (CSV) file format |
| DELIMITED_FILE | 3 | Delimited file format (for example, containing commas, semicolons, tabs, or spaces) |
| HTML | 2 | HyperText Markup Language (HTML) file |
| PRINTER | 0 | Output to the default printer of the user |
| RTF | 4 | Rich Text File (RTF) file format for Microsoft Word for Windows |
| TEXT | 6 | Text (or ASCII) file format, and can contain new page characters |
| XML | 5 | Extensible Markup Language (XML) file format |
The CSV and DELIMITED_FILE constants, which have the same integer value, are the same format in that in both you can use commas, semicolons, tabs, or spaces as field delimiters.
Traditionally, as the name suggests, .csv was applied to files in which only commas could be used as delimiters. CSV is therefore retained as a class constant for JADE Report Writer applications even though it has the same integer value as the DELIMITED_FILE constant.
