In the previous article we have considered an example of using a new product of FastReport - the FastReport Core. That was an example for Windows. This time we will overview an example for Linux. First of all, for Linux need additional libraries, which may not be installed by default: Libgdiplus; libx11-dev. Usually, the xserver is not installed on the server OS Linux. However, it is necessary for processing graphics of the FastReport Core. So, we have to install it. It can be, for example: Xvfb, VcXsrv etc. We will revert to the issue of the xserver later, but for now, let us create the ASP.Net Core application: Choose a Web application: Add the FastReport Core to the project via NuGet. ...

In this article we are going to introduce and explore a new type of barcode in FastReport.Net - Pharmacode. One can guess from the name of the barcode, that it is related to pharmaceutical industry. Pharmacode is a binary code, which was developed by a German company LAETUS GMBH specially for pharmaceutical packaging. This code is widely used as a pharmaceutical product packaging control system. As a part of an automated packaging system, Pharmacode allows you to scan and detect pharmaceutical shipments easily by using universal identifiers. It is also easy to determine, whether the batch is mixed with other drugs by using scanners. Pharmacode is used in pharmaceutical industry as a part of their package management system and it is specifically designed to guaranty reading, despite possible misprints and typos. Also, to ensure that the rest of the package, apart from its code, is correctly printed, Pharmacode can be pr ...

Most reports display some data. Typically, this data is obtained from databases. Therefore, the report has a connection to the data source in order to have a list of available tables and fields, as well as the data itself. But what if at the time of writing the report, you only had a local database that you created a connection to inside the report. Then the report will not work properly. We need a valid connection. There are two ways out of this situation: use a data source from a user program, or replace the connection line in the report. The first method is well known to you. You need to create a connection in the application and then log in to the report. Then, when you design a report, you can choose this source of Alias. On the one hand, this is convenient - changing the connector does not affect the report. No matter where the report gets the data, as long as the table and field names, data types, and data types provided in the template are the same. The drawback of t ...
