Hello there.
Please guys, this is just a report tool. Peace and love! :)
I see that CR is a robust report engine, but I need to be honest and say that this license apparently uncertainty gets me scared ... well, not really scared, but lets say concerned.
I think I understood what Rip was trying to accomplish with his question. But probably got to a nerve there.
Anyway, at this stage I decided to go to XtraReports. I've been able to start integrating it really well into StrataFrame and its BusinessObjects. For me, a Portuguese native speaker, it's been really nice to see it is completely localizable, so now I got StrataFrame and XtraReports in Portuguese, essencial to distribute the application to my clients.
Talking about the web, any report you create with XtraReports for winforms, is ready to go to the web, nothing else needed.
Royalty? Free (period)
Some people adviced me against XtraReports support, but so far I have been extremely lucky with it, the guys from DevExpress have been giving me the attention I need.
So, life is great, and if any of you go mad and decide to visit Brazil, drop me a line first. Beers on me.
Cheers.
Ivan
