DataVision 0.7.13 is now available from SourceForge at
<http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=33343>.
Datavision (http://datavision.sf.net) is an Open Source reporting tool
similar to Crystal Reports. Reports can be designed using a drag-and-drop
GUI. They may be run, viewed, and printed from the application or exported
as HTML, XML, PDF, LaTeX2e, DocBook, or tab- or comma-delimited text files.
The output files produced by LaTeX2e and DocBook can in turn be used to
produce PDF, text, HTML, PostScript, and more.
DataVision is written in Java and uses JRuby to add Ruby scripting.
Changes:
* The PDF layout engine can now display lines.
* Formulas now display Ruby script error messages.
* IndentWriter was renamed XMLWriter, and new methods were added that make
it easy to write XML files.
Bug Fixes:
* The export dialog will now appear on top of the Swing report window when
exporting from within that window.
* The PDF layout engines now properly positions text on the page (the text
is a smidgen higher).
* Removed hard-coded PDF font encoding.
