Plotting Mathematical Expressions 7. Patterns in the .NET Base Class Library 8. Concurrent and Parallel Programming under .NET 9. Functional Programming Techniques for Better State Management 10. Pattern Implementation Using Object/Functional Programming 11. What is Reactive Programming? 12. Reactive Programming Using .NET Rx Extensions 13. Reactive Programming Using RxJS 14. A Road Ahead

Chapter 5. Producing Tabular Reports

In this chapter, we will create a library that will help application developers to create tabular reports using a custom Document Object Model (DOM), created for this purpose. The tree-structured document object model will be traversed to produce output in the Adobe® Portable Document Format (PDF) and HTML format. Support for new target formats would be seamless, with developers writing handlers for those. For PDF output, we plan to use the open source iTextSharp library. During the course of this chapter, as a reader, you will learn the following:

  • Defining an object model for documents
  • The composite pattern for modeling part/whole relationship
  • Producing PDF documents by leveraging the iTextSharp library
  • The visitor pattern and composite object traversal
