SharpDevelop 2.1 code-named "Serralongue" will be shipping with list (object) data source support in SharpReport (#report). This list binding support comes in addition to binding to SQL-based data sources that was available previously. The following screen recording gives you a quick tour of the new list support and shipping samples for list data sources:

SharpDevelop 2.1 can be obtained only from the Subversion repository at this time. The samples shown in the demo video can be found in the samples\SharpReport directory (ReportSamples and ReportsFromList respectively).

I really, really wish there were some plans to include list object data source databinding for forms and controls. It would shave weeks of the development time for people not using MS SQL or direct dB databinding. It's really quite frustrating when MSDN says you can bind a form to (for example)a type or bindinglist(of T) and then you discover that datasource view is not only not implemented but is not even on the roadmap. I love SharpDevelop; I love the philosophy that drives SharpDevelop but I cannot for the life of me see the rationale behind this kind of ommission.
