Both RenderX and Antenna House .NET connections ... what is the barrier to
commercial tools?
The cost.
Can you consider only getting rid of commercial proprietary reporting
tools? By using a commercial XSL-FO tool you have the protection of
non-proprietary technology investment and flexibility to move your
intellectual property to other implementations.
Good thoughts. I did not think about these other advantages.
Note there is more than one open source XSL-FO tools: FOP and xmlroff are
two that come to mind right away.
I have seen a bit about thesse tools, but they are not .NET libraries. There
is a port of FOP to J#; I ran some tests but it worked not; I'm still
sweating for make it work.
