List & Label Cross Platform — Reporting for Linux and More

List & Label Cross Platform for Linux and more

Maybe you’ve already seen it on our social networks, our website, or in our livestream: at combit, we’re currently working on a new, future-oriented offshoot of List & Label — a cross-platform reporting solution that will also run on Linux. The official name is already fixed: List & Label Cross Platform (LLCP). The product is primarily aimed at developers who are looking for a reporting component that supports hosting on Linux servers.

The List & Label Service Pack 29.004 is here – with support for Windows Server 2025 and Embarcadero RAD Studio 12.2. Additionally, there are many new improvements, for example, in CSV export, printing, and Report Server performance. In the area of security, there is a new .NET update.

Reporting in Your Applications with Embarcadero RAD Studio

List & Label is a reporting component that integrates with applications to provide them with rich reporting capabilities. It allows developers to create sophisticated reports based on data from any source. Easy data binding for your own VCL applications is provided by List & Label’s FireDAC component, which supports numerous data sources such as Oracle, MS SQL Server, SQLite, DB2, MySQL and PostgreSQL, as well as many other databases and formats. The control over the data for reporting always remains with the application itself.

New Data Provider for Azure Cosmos Database

Azure Cosmos DB is a fully managed Microsoft NoSQL database for modern app development, which is growing in popularity. Various APIs are available for connecting to Cosmos DB, as for example SQL API, Cassandra API or MongoDB API. Since we’re already able to connect to MongoDB or Cassandra through their own data providers, we’ll use the SQL API for the provider.

Distribute Emails via Office 365 / Microsoft Graph with List & Label

Microsoft is putting more and more obstacles in its Office 365 package, making it difficult to send SMTP emails “just like that” with basic authentication (see e.g. here) and with MAPI/XMAPI in the cloud anyway. But on-premise also brings new challenges (have you ever dealt with our Cross-Bitness-Proxy for x86 applications and x64 Office? 🙂 ). So it was about time to offer a new, up-to-date solution for the very frequently used email delivery.
