Generate EAN-8 barcodes in local reports (RDLC) using barcode generator library

RDLC reports, created by the Visual Studio ReportViewer control based on Report Definition Language Client Side, are local reports and completely run in local processing mode. In Microsoft Visual Studio 2005, 2008, and 2010, the client reports can be easily created in your .NET application projects and viewed in either ASP.NET web pages or Windows Forms with the ReportViewer control.

Our RDLC barcode library is used for adding EAN-8 generation features into local reports. To generate EAN-8 barcode images in RDLC reports, the EAN-8 barcode library should be used as a custom assembly into the local reports Code section for Visual Studio does not support drag and drop third party control when designing the reports in a local processing mode.
