Does Reporting Services embedded in WinForm need SQL Server?

问题

I am starting to learn Reporting Services and I read that it uses SQL Server to store the meta data. I am planning to use it in a WinForm app. Does SSRS require SQL Server to be used in a WinForm app? Can it be self contained like Crystal?

You can use LocalReport in order to make reports but you should give it directly the datasource. More over the ReportViewer Redistribuable Package should be installed !
