How It Works?

To run the web reports designer, it is required to put the StiWebDesignerSL component on the ASP.NET page. Then, in the PageLoad event of a page, you need to assign a report to the Report property of a component. An ASP.NET component will read the Silverlight-client application into memory from resources and run it. Being loaded, the client side will request all necessary settings and a report file from the server side. The server part will pass this. When you save or preview the report, the client side sends the report as an XML the file, and server will perform preliminary processing of the report, and transfer this file for saving, or compiles it and displays in a browser window.
