Loading data progressively to improve performance over network
Posted: Fri Jul 29, 2022 11:19 am
Hello StimulSoft team,
We're looking at StimulSoft Reports as a way to replace our existing legacy reporting software. We've starting doing tests and found that the data for a report seems like it needs to be loaded all in one go before the generation can start.
From our tests, in the high level code and from searching through this forum, its seems that progressive loading or data paging is not currently supported.
In the method StiDataCollection.RegData it's explicitly stated that IDataReader is not supported. I suppose it's for this reason ?
We did a test through OData as well that was set as paged, but only the first page of data was actually used in the report.
Can you please confirm this behaviour and if you ever plan to implement data paging ?
Thanking you in advance,
Loren
