2005 RDL Spec vs. Reporting Services Implementation

Just found another difference with the RDL Spec (Nov 05 and Dec 03 v ersions)

The correct cardinality relationship between Sorting and SortBy is being called into question

According to Reporting Services implementation

Sorting contains 1 to many SortBy elements

According to the Spec (05), page 49

Sorting contains exactly 1 SortBy element

According to Spec Diagram (05) Data Region Page (page 5)

Sorting contains 1 to many SortBy elements

So which is correct

The same problem occurs with Grouping and GroupExpression

Also that same diagram says that a List contains 1 to many Sorting and 1 to many Grouping elements, but inside the spec it self those relationships are described as 1 to 1.

So hopefully I can get this straightened out.

    A grouping can have multiple group expressions.

    A sorting can have multiple sort expressions (SortBy elements).
