WPF Viewer For Reporting Services 2008/2012 Is Available
Online, August 18, 2012 (Newswire.com) - Perpetuum Software LLC launches WPF Viewer for Reporting Services, a native WPF component intended for displaying MS SQL Server Reporting Services reports in WPF applications.
"SQL Server Reporting Services is extremely popular among corporate developers, since it is a standard tool used for generating reports in companies of all sizes. It's natural that they want to be able to use it on all platforms, including Silverlight and WPF. Since Microsoft Corp. doesn't hurry up with development of some compatibility path between these technologies, we decided to make lives of SSRS developers easier and announce WPF Viewer for Reporting Services", states Mikhail Payson, CTO at Perpetuum Software.
WPF Viewer for Reporting Services represents Reporting Services reports in native XAML format making it possible to add control to any WPF application. The reports are generated in vector format so that they can be scaled without loss of quality. Users can manipulate reports just like in native Reporting Services viewer: scroll, pan, zoom, export to all formats available in Reporting Services, drill through and drill down the reports, use parameters, and even print reports as HTML and XAML or send to physical printer.
WPF Viewer for Reporting Services is completely customizable. Developers can setup viewer appearance to fit corporate style. The product can be easily localized to any language to address cultural needs.
This is a very convenient solution, as developers don't need to look for or think over workarounds of how to combine SSRS and WPF. No need to move to other reporting tool (which also takes much time to evaluate and examine a new product) and re-design hundreds of reports using this new product they didn't get used to. No such problem exists with WPF Viewer for Reporting Services, now it's possible to integrate SSRS in WPF applications with just few mouse clicks.
