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.

InMemoryDataProviderWrapper: Data Provider on Steroids

The features of different data providers vary widely. Depending on the data source, sorting, native aggregate functions or filters at database level may be available directly. Or not. For example, none of this is available in file-based formats such as JSON or XML, or even in “web” formats such as REST. These are typically read “front to back” and therefore cannot offer sorting or native aggregation. With List & Label 29, we have something new to offer.
