Additional packages for Stimulsoft products
A list of additional packages required for the correct work of some components and data adapters and links for their installation.The library for rendering SVG
The Stimulsoft.Svg package is required to use SVG images and for the work of the Math Formula component in .NET applications. This library is already included in the Designer application. No additional settings are required. For runtime components, the package is connected automatically along with the installation of the NuGet package. If you need, you may connect the Stimulsoft.Svg package from the NuGet repository by yourself. In case of using libraries from developer packages,Stimulsoft.Svg.dll is included in the archive - you just need to connect it to the project along with the rest of the product libraries.
The library for rendering Mathematical Formulas
The Stimulsoft.MathFX library is designed to work with the Mathematical Formula component on report pages in .NET applications. The library contains functions for working with formulas written in the popular LaTeX format and displaying them graphically in Stimulsoft products. Installing the NuGet package in your project is all that is needed to start using the functions of the library. To use the source codes, you can clone the public GitHub repository and link the source codes to your project. Stimulsoft products do not require any additional settings.Data adapters for .NET platforms
Our products, based on the .NET Framework, .NET Core, and .NET platforms, support various data adapters. Most of them are built into the report engine. The rest require the installation of third-party libraries for connecting to data. The Designer application can download and install the necessary adapters by itself. This works transparently for the user and does not require any settings. For runtime components, you should independently connect the required libraries in the project.The list below shows the data adapters that require third-party libraries to be connected. Almost all the libraries you need can be installed from the NuGet repository. However, in most cases, you can use other versions of the libraries. We have tested references and minimum versions of the libraries for compatibility with our products listed for the adapters.
