The beginning of the year was marked for Perpetuum Software with hard work on a
new release of Silverlight Viewer for Reporting Services 2008.
Planning the release, first of all we take into consideration requests and suggestions of our clients. And now we are glad to announce that the release is almost ready to see the world.
We finished the work on errors handling. At first sight this functionality doesn’t seem to be essential. But when it comes to work with the component and getting errors this functionality becomes very important. It saves time on looking for the reason of the error and eliminates the clients and our technical support staff headache. The possibility to record errors to the log file on server will be available. To make this feature more user-friendly we will create an option that will allow switching on/off recording. On the clients side the error will be visualized. It will provide possibility to the developer to see and solve the problem himself or to send it to our technical support team.
Getting Started documentation and Getting Started example are reviewed. Examining the troubles of our customers we found out that there are some problems connected with the clients hosting. Modifying the example we tried to cover all these problems to make the use of our product independent from the hosting type.
But everything appeared to be not as perfect as we expected. Unfortunately, we failed to include the local report server support in this release due to some peculiarities of beta release of Visual Studio 2010. But we strongly hope that the final release of Visual Studio 2010 will make it possible to implement this feature into our product.
The final release of Silverlight Viewer for Reporting Services is expected at the end of February, 2010.
Be that as it may, we are not going to stop there and planning to release the next version in April 2010. You can see roadmap on this version on our Perpetuum Software website.
And we are still waiting for your suggestions and feature requests on Silverlight Viewer for Reporting Services at [email protected].
Our aim is your comfortable and successful work!
