Ok scratch that retardedness. If the Report object is in session scope
then I can just access it's dataset objects and limit the rows via
startrow endrow of the cfoutput tag. Hehe

Well, my little reporting engine turned out quite nice! Starting to
finally hit home how much easier it is to work with OO in regards to
modifying/extending in later stages of development.

My last obstacle is adding a persistence layer. I've come up with the
"poor man's" version but it involves adding a property to my dataset
object which is then used to set the cachedwithin parameter on the query
itself. While this would work, it doesn't feel right...and I would no
longer be able to use bind variables...which is a serious negative side
effect.

At the moment the reporting framework hasn't a clue about its
environment, including the user's session.

Essentially there's a Report object which holds an array of Dataset
objects. (a single report object may have multiple dataset objects) Each
dataset object contains a query resultset as one of it's properties. If
I were to toss the Report instance into the session scope I guess I'd
need another method in my dataset object which would query the original
recordset by means of a QofQ with start and end rows. This would enable
me to offer "paging" for larger reports for html output.

If anyone can offer any criticism or advice on this approach, I'd be
much obliged! ;)

Thanks,

Stace
