Instanciating a class in a Python module was +necessary when a custom parser was used. + +In version 7.1, the recommended way to register a report is to use only the +``<report>`` XML tag. The tag can now support an additional ``parser`` +attribute. The value for that attibute must be a fully-qualified class name, +without the leading ``openerp.addons.`` namespace. + +.. note:: + The rational to deprecate the manual class instanciation is to make all + reports visible in the database, have a unique way to declare reports + instead of two, and remove the need to maintain a registry of reports in + memory. + |
