I understand that I can use the following:
CR2011 Reports using the Runtime 13.X
Reports Developer Machine Requirements
- CR2011
- VS2010
- Install Executable for runtime 13.X http://scn.sap.com/docs/DOC-7824
The above requires the developer to develop the report in CR2011 and save the file. Open the file in VS2010 and save the project than save the .RPT file. This provides the report with the needed elements for the runtime 13. The .RPT can be moved to the server at this point to used for production.
Application Developer's Machine
- VS2010
- Install Executable for runtime 13.X http://scn.sap.com/docs/DOC-7824
Web Server
- MSI 64 Bit http://scn.sap.com/docs/DOC-7824
- The Application package from the Application Developer's machine
- The .RPT file after it has been created and saved as mentioned above
What I am trying to find out is if there is a another runtime (e.g Runtime 14) that supports CR2011 without having to have the VS2010 and the install executable on the reports developer machine. I believe this is how is was setup for CR2008 when using the Runtime 12. The only reason VS2010 and the install executable is needed is the runtime 13 doesn't support CR2011 directly, which was determine a few years ago.
If someone could fill in the XXs and ??s below that would be great. I would also like a link to the page that contains the runtime downloads so I can get the downlaods and review the developer guides and API information related to that runtime.
CR2011 Reports using the Runtime XX.X
Reports Developer Machine Requirements
- CR2011
Application Developer's Machine
- Visual Studio Version ???
- Install Executable for runtime XX.X
Web Server
- Runtime version ???
I am asking about this as some customers would like to develop their own reports on a local installation of our product, so if CR2011 can reference a runtime without having VSXXXX and the install executable XX.X being installed on their machine the overall costs and training would be greatly reduced.
Seeking answers...
