List & Label Delphi Data Providers

This repository is a community effort to write TListLabelDataProvider implementations for usage with the List & Label Reporting Tool.

While the support for .NET has been around a long time, we're trying to build a similar ecosystem for Delphi through this repository. Any help is greatly appreciated.

What's Available so Far

The sources feature a new VCL component (using FireDAC) that uses the data provider interface. This enables a number of great features that were previously unavailable to Delphi developers using our "old" (BDE) databound component:

  • Multiple report containers
  • Nested tables
  • Databound report parameters
  • Expandable regions in tables and crosstabs
  • Interactive sorting in table headers
  • Support of DesignerFunctions and DesignerObjects
  • Keep blocks together

Samples showing how to use the component to bind to FireDAC data are also included in the full product setup or here on GitHub. You should be able to bind to Oracle, MS SQL Server, SQLite, DB2, MySQL, PostgreSQL to name just a few.

Copy the contents of this repository to your List & Label installation under "..\Samples\Delphi\FireDAC".

Contributions

We're happy to receive pull requests for any improvements on this repository. Please make sure with every contribution that the component needs to be "Delphi-like".

Further fields of interest include:

  • Add additional data providers to bind to CSV, XML, JSON etc.

A big special thank you goes to Andreas Müller of Nord-Vision IT - his contributions to this repository were invaluable.
