No, Paradigma offers own Valentina Report engine.
And since here talk about reports, I wana give some news:
* Very soon we ship Valentina 5.0 products
* Valentina Studio Pro - contains visual Report Editor.
It works on all 3 platforms mac win linux.
* in 5.0 we adding Postgre SQL as datasource for Valentina Reports,
and even plugin postgresql into Valentina Studio.
This means that in 5.0, Valentina Reports can use as
* Valentina local db
* Valentina Server
* Postgre SQL Server
* SQLite local db
* ODBC datasource
2-3 months later we will add mySQL as native datasource into reports.
And plugin into Vstudio also.
* in contrast to some Report Tools e.g. For LiveCode or REALbasic, which are
made on RB itself or on Livecode itself, and this means work only with this
IDEs, Valentina Reports are made in C++, for all 3 platforms, for all
programming languages that Valentina supports. And these are major
languages: C C++ C# PHP Livecode RB COM VB, soon Java ...
This means that you can later switch from one IDE to another and not loose
your work, or you can combine different IDEs and languages in your
solutions.
Also this means much better speed of report engine.
** Working with Valentina Reports no need tease self with SHELL.
Because reports prepared in the Valentina Studio Pro and saved in the *.vsp
file can be accessed by few methods directly from Valentina ADK for
LiveCode.
** Another task we keep eye on is that Report prepared e.g. On PostgreSQL
datasource, should work the same on any other datasource ...
*** THERE IS ONE MORE great news about Valentina Studio ***
but later :-)
