Some basic instruction for easy setup of ruby on rails on a ubuntu 14.04 server.

sudo apt-get install ruby ruby-dev nodejs
sudo gem install rails
sudo gem install rdoc-data; sudo rdoc-data --install
rails new path/to/your/new/application
cd path/to/your/new/application
rails server

Now browse to http://localhost:3000

Majorsilence Reporting is a report and charting system based on Microsoft’s Report Definition Language (RDL). Tabular, free form, matrix, charts are fully supported. HTML, PDF, XML, .Net Control, and printing supported. An experimental Gtk/WPF/Cocoa viewer also exist. There are also language wrappers available for php, python, and ruby that make it easy to generate reports. The WYSIWYG designer allows you to create reports without knowledge of RDL. Wizards are available for creating new reports and for inserting new tables, matrixes, charts, and barcodes into existing reports.

Majorsilence reporting started as My-FyiReporting which was a fork of fyiReporting after it died. It has been re-branded as Majorsilence Reporting to make it clearer that it is a separate forked project. Its purpose is to keep the project alive and useful.

My-FyiReporting has been renamed to Majorsilence Reporting.

Majorsilence reporting started as My-FyiReporting which was a fork of fyiReporting after it died. It has been rebranded as Majorsilence Reporting to make it clearer that it is a separate forked project. Its purpose is to keep the project alive and useful.

The Github project name and code namespaces will remain the same.

I have recently pushed a new My-FyiReporting designer control to master.

It is a winform designer and includes examples of how to host in WPF.

Simple winform example

[STAThread]
static void Main()
{
	Application.EnableVisualStyles();
	Application.SetCompatibleTextRenderingDefault(false);
	Form frm = new Form();
	fyiReporting.RdlDesign.RdlUserControl ctl = new fyiReporting.RdlDesign.RdlUserControl();
	ctl.OpenFile(@"The path to the rdl file.rdl");
	ctl.Dock = DockStyle.Fill;
	frm.Controls.Add(ctl);

	Application.Run(frm);
}
