Column limits for Crystal Reports for Eclipse

Hi ,
Is there any column limits for Crystal Reports for Eclipse. While i am trying in my environment, if i am include more than 18 columns its wont show the preview as well as it throws error like as follows "java.lang.NullPointerException at

Hi,
Are you talking about the fields coming from the Data Source Explorer?.
If "Yes" then there is no such limits.
Are you able to run the report through the eclipse designer?
Thanks,

License for Crystal Report for Visual Studion 2005

Hi All,
I am developing reports for my application using crystal reports for VS 2005. I read on microsoft site (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/318102 ) that the free server software supports three active requests to the server. It further says that developer will need to purchase additional licenses to increase scalability. I think that our application would need the additional license. However, i was unable to find a link on business objects site were i can buy the additional license for crystal report for VS 2005. The link takes me to license for Crystal report 2008. It would be great if you can answer my following questions:
- what version of crystal reports do we need to purchase?
- do we need license for each implementation or do we need license for the developers only.
Thank you.
Best regards,
Abdul

Great questions! Let's get at em, one at a time:
How would you define a print job?
- A print job will essentially be consumed any time the print engine (crpe32.dll) needs to do work. So, processing one report = a print job. However, say you have one subreport, now the number of print jobs = 2. Now, say the subreport is in the details section and runs once per record. And you have 100 records. You will be running 1 + 100 print jobs. Paging to another page consumes a print job. Zooming consumes a print job, exporting and printing to a printer consumes a print job. So, depending on the report and the number of users, print jobs may be used up quite quickly. You can increase the print job limit by modifying the PrintJobLimit in the registry. For CR 2008, the reg entry is here:
HKLMsoftware usiness objectssuite 12.0
eport application serverinprocserver
(the above is used irrespective of the SDK (CR, RAS, BOE))
I am not using report viewer to render the report. I use 'ExportToDisk' method to save the report in word or pdf format. Does 'ExportToDisk' make one print job?
- see above. Again, if the report has a subreport, this will consume at least two print jobs.
How much time does a typical print job takes to complete?
- no way to tell in general terms. There are too many variables that will affect this. From how complex the report to database connections to version of runtime
What care shall I take to reduce the print job time?
- Best you can do is ensure that you are destroying the report object once you are done with it (report.close, report.dispose)
Will using Report Application Server (RAS) or Business Objects Enterprise increase the number of concurrent print jobs? If yes then by what amount?
- no it will not
To utilize Report Application Server (RAS) or Business Objects Enterprise, do I just need to use a specific SDK or is there some thing more to it?
- You do need to use the RAS assemblies for RAS, BOE assemblies for BOE. More information is below.
Sample RAS apps:
https://boc.sdn.sap.com/samples/84/1194

Wasn't sure which version you are using, so here are the two i think you might be using:

DB2 support for Crystal Reports for Enterprise And Unx errors

Hi,
I have a requirement to create a report in CrystalReports for Enterprise 4 sourcing data from Oracle 11 and IBM DB2 V9 databases. My first approach is to create relational connections for both the databases in the BO Repository (using Universe designer) and use them directley in the CR for Enterprise. Here I was able to create the two connections but unable to use the DB2 connnection in the report. I get the below error:
"The Database DB2V9 is not supported".
Is DB2 is a supported database for Crystal reports for Enterprise ??
My second approach is to create a multisource universe using IDT. Here when I try to create the Datafoundation layer, I get to see the tables from the DB2 databasae but When I expand the Oracle connection, I get this error: "conversion from UTF8 to charset failed: encoding not loaded".
Im unable to create a multisource universe at all no matter what connections I use.
Here is some additional info:
SAP BI4.1 SP1
Windows 2008 R2 servers
Oracle 11g
IBM DB2 V9.7
Any suggestions please!
Thanks,
Ravinder

Hi,
First of all I would strongly advice you to only use IDT for your universe development. The old Universe Designer is a legacy tool and should not be used unless you are using products that doesn't support IDT universes.
The issue you are facing for your Oracle connection is likely caused by a missing path variable.
Add "C:\Program Files (x86)\SAP BusinessObjects\SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 4.0\win64_x64" to the PATH environment variables on the SAP Business Objects Enterprise server.
Restart the SIA
NOTE: Modify the path in case the SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise is installed in different folder.
Hope this helps.
Cheers,
Josh

Hello,
You can find all of the info for CR for VS 2010 here: http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/boc/crystalreports-dotnet
Including the deployment packages etc., distributing the runtime manually is not supported nor has anyone that I know of ever done it successfully.
Make sure you use the Full Framework when building your project and set your project for X86 or x64 only and not the default AnyCPU.
You can use CR with 2.0 framework, actually it still has a dependency on 2.0 framework.
Microsoft doesn't support it as they did in previous versions of VS .NET because it's not installed with VS now. It's fully support by SAP now.
Thank you

Hi All!
Our customer ask that can they install the crystal report for SAP 8.8 with multi computer and no need to buy any license for this because they bought license for SAP B1 already.
I wonder this and everyone can help me?
How can we should advice them.
Thanks!

Hi,
If you want more users to edit CR, you need to buy extra licenses. B1 only include one free license for maintaining reports for 2007 version.

CRVS2010 Beta - Licensing for "Crystal Reports for VS 2010"

Hello,
We have Crystal reports 2008 developer license which was upgraded from Crystal reports 11 Developer edition.
We have migrated to VS 2010 and need to use "Crystal Reports for VS 2010". But we only need to use the runtime version of it and are not using the crystal reports designer. Do we need to purchase/upgrade the license? If yes, then could you please let us know the details?
Thanks,
Gulab.

Edited by: Ludek Uher on Sep 9, 2010 6:56 AM

CRVS 2010 being a Beta, I am not sure that the licensing details have been worked out yet. However, going by past versions;
Runtime is free for win apps
Runtime is free for web apps - as long as these are used internally. See [SAP Crystal Reports Licensing Information|http://www.sap.com/solutions/sap-crystal-solutions/query-reporting-analysis/sapcrystalreports/licensing/index.epx] for more details.
The above 2 I suspect will be carried over to CRVS 2010 - no guarantees, but this would make sense.
Runtime for web apps deployed to 3rd parties does require extra licensing. The licensing for versions of CR that bundled with .NET 2006 and .NET 2008 are described here:

I'll check with Program Management if all of the above applies and confirm once I get an answer.

WebElements: Support planned for Crystal Reports for Enterprise?

Hi Jamie
Currently only Crystal Reports 2011 is supported with WebElements 2.47. Is there a plan to support Crystal Reports for Enterprise in the future? Or are there technical obstacles which prohibit this "by design"?
Regards
Raphael

hi Raphael,
crystal reports for enterprise on bi 4.0 will not support webelements as it does not have support for custom functions. webelements is built with custom functions. there are most likely other limitations with crystal reports for enterprise that will disallow using webelements.
this should not really affect anyone that's using webelements unless they really want to use the new semantic layer / universe.
given that you could probably still build your reports that contain webelements with crystal reports 2011 and call anything built with cr for enterprise. the best practise for webelements is to create a container report with all of the webelements controls and then call the target in an iframe or in a new tab or window.

Use XML as data input for Crystal Report for Eclipse

Hi,
I am completely new to crystal report and please kindly forgive me if I ask some stupid questions.
Actually, I have searched the forum for the topic and found some related threads, but I still want to
have some responses from crystal report experts on this issue.
Our developer tool is IBM RAD 7.0 and it has crystal reports tools installed in it. I want to use
crystal report to solve one of our business solutions. I have the following questions about the
feasbility of this solution:
(1). I need to specify data at runtime during report generation. I think using fixed data source
     (for example, SQL query or Stored Procedure) may not fit our needs. I think if crystal report
     can accept XML as input to generate reports at runtime, then it will be perfect. Can CR
     use XML as data source as input?
(2). Actually, one of our business requirements is to generate a letter. Can CR do a report
      layout such that a letter format can be achieved? If yes, would you let me know the
      report layout name?
(3). We need to export the report into PDF format, I know CR can do PDF output. But can
      CR be controlled to export this into bytes stream? Or the PDF must be saved into a
      physical file?
(4) If I need to learn more about CR, which book will you recommend?
Thanks in advance for your advice,
Raymond

Thanks for the help Ted
Works like a charm now.
Or atleast my very very simple XML report works.
Now I just need to play around and see what I can do and what I cant.
I just want to make sure I understand how this works.
1) I start of with a XML file (or URL or other data source as explained in your BLOG)
2) I then have to create blank report which will have its data source set to my XML file.
    This report (rpt file) will always have its data source set to the original XML location
Can this be dynamically changed, or does a new rpt file need to be created each time
    (or atleast I will have to re-run "CreateXMLInlineSchemaReport" from your BLOG)
3) I can now use this rpt file as I would any other rpt file but its data source will be the original XML file
   - If I update or change the XML file, the report will dynamically reflect these changes.
4) To change the data source, I need to recreate a new rpt file as per point 2. Which will now be blank.
5) Filtering.... if I want to filter the XML data do I use normal parameters. If I want to filter the data before
    I pull it do I need to change anything. In otherwords if I have a XML file with 1000 records, but I only want say
5 of them, how do I only pull those 5 without first pulling the whole 1000 records. Hope that makes sense.
As I said I am very new to this so some things still fly over my head, but I do play around abit so hopefully
will find what I am looking for.
Cheers
Darren
PS any other links to info on creating and running reports of XML data sources would be greatly appriciated

Concurrent Access for Crystal Reports for eclipse

Hi,
May i know is there any concurrent access limitation when viewing the reports in web using JRC?

The performance does get better after the initialization of the JRC application. Because it is a pure java application without any reliances on servers for processing power, it will rely on the speed of the application server. In the initialization, all of the libraries get loaded in to the classpath so this does take some time. Generally speaking the performance will get better after this because everything has been loaded in to memory; that is until you restart the application server.
The JRC will be a bit slower when rendering a large report. Depending on the size of that report, you may be looking at between a few seconds and several minutes in processing time.
Whether or not you use the JRC will depend on the number of users you anticipate having at any given time for your application as well as the general size of your reports.
Crystal Reports Server comes with a set number of licenses. Initially it comes with 5 and you can purchase up to 20 or 25. This means you could potentially have about the same number of users as you would with a JRC application, but if you have large reports then you could take advantage of the benefit of being able to schedule those reports (set them to run during an off time so your users can view the instances quickly when they need to). You do have to be more mindful of how you use licenses with this product, since for each user logged on to the system there will be a license used. There are many additional benefits, including performance that can be had with CR Server. One key difference would be in the cost of the product: The JRC is essentially free, whereas CR Server is not.
I would suggest reading our product documentation and applying it to your situation to determine what implementation would work best for you.

JRC for Crystal Reports for Eclipse V2.0 Parameter Problems

Scenario:
I have a report that displays the Function Group Name for a certain individual and all the Functions included in that Function Group. The following are the tables involved:
USER, FUNC_GROUP (contains description of the group) and FUNC_GROUP_LIST (the actual functions in the FUNC_GROUP).
The SQL command for the main report is: select id, name, description from FUNC_GROUP, USER where FUNC_GROUP.id = USER.default_func_group_id
The sub-report which lists the functions for the Function Group has the following SQL command: select id, name from FUNC where func_group_id = <main report's FUNC_GROUP.id>
The problem is my current code still flags missingParameterValueError error whenever I changed the DB location and set the parameters.
Code used for setting of db connection:
private void setDBConnection(ReportClientDocument doc) throws ReportSDKException {
    IConnectionInfo newConnectionInfo = new ConnectionInfo();
    newConnectionInfo.setAttributes(new PropertyBag(connectionProperty));
    newConnectionInfo.setUserName(getLoginname());
    newConnectionInfo.setPassword(getPassword());
    //preserve subreport links
    SubreportController src = doc.getSubreportController();
    Map<String, SubreportLinks> linkMapper = new HashMap<String,SubreportLinks>();
    for(String subreportName : src.getSubreportNames()){
        linkMapper.put(subreportName,
            (SubreportLinks) src.getSubreportLinks(subreportName).clone(true));
    //If this connection needed parameters, we would use this field.
    Fields<IParameterField> pFields = doc.getDataDefController().getDataDefinition().getParameterFields();
    replaceConnectionInfos(doc.getDatabaseController(), newConnectionInfo, pFields);
    IStrings strs = src.getSubreportNames();
    Iterator<String> it = strs.iterator();
    while (it.hasNext()) {
      String name = it.next();
      ISubreportClientDocument subreport = src.getSubreport(name);
      pFields = subreport.getDataDefController().getDataDefinition().getParameterFields();
      replaceConnectionInfos(subreport.getDatabaseController(), newConnectionInfo, pFields);
    //reconnect subreport links since when using replaceConnection links are erased
    for(String subreportName : src.getSubreportNames())
      src.setSubreportLinks(subreportName, linkMapper.get(subreportName));

I've run the program in debug mode and inspected the following:
src.getSubreportLinks(subreportName).getSubreportLink(0).getSubreportFieldName()
src.getSubreportLinks(subreportName).getSubreportLink(0).getMainReportFieldName()
src.getSubreportLinks(subreportName).getSubreportLink(0).getLinkedParameterName()
before the change in connection and after the change in connection in both main and subreport and after adding back the links. The values monitored did not change.
Am I looking at the correct things? Or is there another value I need to monitor?

I am not using any stored procs, I just formulated an SQL for retrieval in both main and subreport.

What do you mean redefine?
Additional info:
The current template I'm using accepts the value from main report (FUNC_GROUP.id) which is in turn used as a parameter in the SQL command in the subreport. This throws an error when exporting via JRC.
However, I tried some modifications in the SQL command in the subreport. I've included the Function Group ID in the select clause (select id, name, func_group_id from FUNC) instead of using it in the where clause. Then in the linking of the main and the subreport, I chose filter data in subreport by func_group_id matching FUNC_GROUP.id in main report. Exporting in JRC this report worked well and deliver the same data as the original template. The problem is I think it takes longer because all data in FUNC table is retrieved. And also as a framework developer, I prefer not limiting the developers regarding the style on how they connect main and subreport in CRW (I'd personally say I'm more fond of using the original template as I think the modified template retrieves unneeded data).
