Hardware and software requirements

Report Manager runs on current Microsoft Windows (Windows 10/11 and Windows Server), and it also works on any modern Linux distribution.

To compile Report Manager you need a current Delphi or C++Builder on Microsoft Windows. Linux builds are produced with Lazarus/FPC; older versions used Kylix (legacy). It has command line tools to allow the use of the engine from any development environment or language.

Hardware system requirements are relative to the use of the engine, the database engine performance etc...

The Report Manager Designer is a Windows VCL application, so the performance gain with a good machine will be noticeable.

On the other way console processing of a report and exporting it to Adobe PDF format (for example using printtopdf command line tool) will consume little resources, and runs fast even on modest hardware.
