Is FastReport 5 finished or I misunderstood something?
Hello,
Today I got an email from Fr:
"2. New in export filters of FastReport VCL v.4 and v.5
XLS export filter of FastReport VCL 4 supports formulas now.
PDF export filter of FastReport VCL 5 became faster and better"
Does this mean that FastReport 5 is finished?
Thank you

yes, FR5 is finished and will form part of XE2 with as yet unknown license conditions.
we will get the first glimpse on 4 August when the first session of the world tour takes place.
This is truly disappointing, not that it is FR5, but only the Basic version, less than Basic if the comparison chart is correct.
Considering the shockingly high price of XE2 and its upgrade options I would have thought that we would get more than having to immediately fork out more money to get an FR version which is actually usable for professional development.
For the developer the inclusion of FR Basic in XE2 is only a cost without any benefit. Having no scripting ability it is the equivalent of being up the creek with no paddle.
This is a massive let down.
