ASP.NET Wrapper - Charts from (an updated) .CSV data file ?

[MT_MANC]

NB This post was originally posted in wrong forum: FusionCharts and ASP

Chart <object name> = new Chart (chartType, chartId, chartWidth, chartHeight, dataFormat, dataSource, bgColor, bgOpacity)

 

The dataFormat constructor parameters mentions .CSV as an available format for chart data - see:

http://www.fusioncharts.com/dev/usage-guide/using-with-server-side-languages/asp-net/introduction.html

 

Are there any working code examples of referencing an external .CSV data file as the data source under ASP.net wrapper ?

If so, can the .CSV data file then be updated/overwritten with another .CSV file (data extended by 1 period) without having to formally re-render 

the chart ?)

 

Most kind

 

PS I cannot see any other way to generate Fusion Charts from .CSV data files - is it only available under ASP.net wrapper ?

Hi,

 

Apology for late reply from our end.

 

We are looking into it and will update you soon.

OK thanks

In the meantime, can you confirm that producing a Fusion XT chart from a (standard format) .CSV file is actually possible under ASP.net ?..or is this maybe an error in the FC documentation ?

Hi,

 

It is not possible to use CSV format in ASP.NET wrapper.

 

There was an error in the documentation and will update it as soon as possible.

 

Hope this helps.

Wondered if there was any update to this answer into Spring 2016 ?

ie any way to generate Fusion Charts directly from .CSV data files  without having to (manually) convert into XML format ?
