Where can I download the Visual Studio 2012 Report Viewer Runtime?

Question

Now that Visual Studio 2012 is released, where can I download the accompanying 2012 Report Viewer Runtime so I can install it on my server? Is there a redistributable installer included with Visual Studio 2012?

Specifically, I'm looking for the updated 2012 version of this: Microsoft Report Viewer 2010 Redistributable Package

the final version of the installation program is http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=35747

Answer 2

I believe I've found a temporary workaround for this:

1. In your project's references, select the Microsoft.ReportViewer.WebForms assembly.
2. Add a reference to C:\Windows\assembly\GAC_MSIL\Microsoft.ReportViewer.Common\11.0.0.0__89845dcd8080cc91\Microsoft.ReportViewer.Common.dll
3. In the properties window, set "Copy Local" to True for both assemblies.
4. Deploy your project to the server.

I haven't tested this extensively, but so far it appears that simply copying the assembly to your project's bin directory satisfies the runtime requirements on the server.
