Improvements

Web Components

• Web Report Designer: Added AuthType and AuthToken properties to WebReportDesignerMVCOptions to change authentication behavior in the Web Report Designer when using the MVC Helper.

.NET

• Improved merging of schema and json data columns for the SchemaAwareJsonDataProvider.
• The preview control’s SearchNext method now returns a boolean to indicate if the search was successful.

Dataprovider

• The ObjectDataProvider has a hidden SupportAdoSorting property (defaulting to false). Switch to true in order to support sorting ADO object members by column name (e.g. a DataTable member “Orders” in a “Customer” object).

Report Server

• The master table in report types that require a master table (label, card) is now automatically set to the first table when a data source is selected and no master table was previously selected.
• Improved message displayed after an unsuccessful login attempt.
• Not provided master table in report types that require a master table (label, card) now display a warning message when exporting or designing.
• JSON Datasource: Improved merging of schema and json data columns for the SchemaAwareJsonDataProvider.

Other

• Some message boxes were shown even if LL_OPTION_PROHIBIT_USERINTERACTION was set. Now MessageBoxes etc are disabled applicationwide in the combit modules if LL_OPTION_PROHIBIT_USERINTERACTION is set to TRUE.
• New option LL_OPTION_COMPAT_ENABLE_EMF_OPTIMIZATION_IN_PDF_OBJECT: when a PDF object is rendered internally, the render source is post-processed if this option is TRUE, resulting in smaller memory footprint.
