オブジェクト指向データソースをレポートに活用

12月 17, 2024
IEnumerableのデータ接続を備えた.NETレポートコントロールを使用すれば、インメモリのコレクションやランタイム生成データを動的にレポートにバインドできます。

IEnumerable data connectivity allows for easy binding of reports to in-memory collections or objects that implement the IEnumerable interface, such as lists and arrays. This technique makes use of LINQ-compatible data structures, allowing developers to dynamically populate reports with data from a variety of sources, including APIs, business logic, and complicated data transformations, without relying on traditional databases. This provides increased flexibility in data provisioning, easier integration with object-oriented application architectures, and the ability to manage data from runtime-generated collections, all of which improve the adaptability and maintainability of reporting systems.

Several .NET reporting components offer IEnumerable data connectivity including:

  • DevExpress Reports (Multi-Platform) lets you bind IEnumerable data sources seamlessly, offering flexibility for cross-platform reporting with dynamic data handling.
  • ActiveReports.NET by MESCIUS facilitates IEnumerable connectivity for lightweight, in-memory data reporting, supporting complex business logic and non-database scenarios.
  • Telerik Reporting enables direct binding to IEnumerable collections, simplifying integration of runtime data into professional reports for .NET applications.
  • List & Label Enterprise Reporting Edition by combit lets you use IEnumerable sources for custom data-driven reporting, emphasizing scalability and real-time data updates.
  • Stimulsoft Reports.Net supports IEnumerable binding to streamline reporting from dynamic data collections, enhancing adaptability for diverse .NET applications.
