Access dataset results during report initialize [message #901062]

I am wondering if this is possible to get the dataset results during the initialize or beforeFactory.

Here is what i am planning to do, I am trying to create report layout dynmaically. There is a dataset for example 'layout' that holds the order of the components and other layout info. The report will be created component dynamic based on what data the 'layout' has. Hence, i want to read through the 'layout' object at the begining.

appreciated.

p.s I am using scripted data source.

Currently the only way we have to do that is to call the data engine api
in the beforeFactory and based on the results use the de api to add or
modify the report. Attached are some examples.
