Application description
Report Manager is a reporting application (Report Manager Designer) and a set of libraries and utilities to preview, export or print reports. It includes native .NET and .NET Core and Delphi/C++Builder libraries, an ActiveX component, and a standard dynamic link library for use from any language such as GNU C. A Linux 64-bit PDF generation tool is also available.
NuGet packages of Report Manager are available; a new repository for .NET development has been created.
The engine includes a TCP Report Server so thin clients can obtain reports processed on the server. A fully functional web report server generates Adobe PDF files on the fly — a true network and web report server with no license fees and multiprocessor support.
License
Report Manager is open source under the MPL license model (including a GPL-compatible use clause), so you can use it in commercial software, but any enhancement to the engine must be published.
Order
The product is free; you can order support and other services.
Features overview
It works on Windows and Linux. You can distribute the report designer, so reports can be modified without changing your application, and results exported to Adobe PDF.
Report Manager has many features, including exclusive ones like report libraries, metafile reports, device fonts, external sections and child subreports. If you use Delphi, C++Builder or FPC/Lazarus, you can embed the reporting engine — preview window, print dialog and report options — directly in your executables.
