Switching the language of the "Crystal Reports for Eclipse" plugin

Good day everyone,
I would like to ask about configuring the language of the "Crystal Reports for Eclipse" plugin:
- I have "Crystal Reports for Eclipse" version: 2.0.7.r1040
- I have installed the language packs 1 and 2
- Currently, the Crystal Reports perspective and the associated views are displayed in German.
- I would like to switch these views back to English.
Questions:
1. How can I switch the language?
2. Will this switching of the language have any known side effect on the existing reports, because some of the reports in my current project are displayed in German?
Thank you in advance for your support.
Best regards,
Samar

Hello everyone,
I have found a solution for this question that I would like to share with you.
- Browse the Control Panel
- Open the Regional and Language Options
- In the Regional Options tab under the Standards and formats group, select the Locale that you prefer.
- *Restart Eclipse* and the Crystal Reports plugin would read the changed setting and display the Crystal Reports perspectives and views in the language of the selected Locale.
Best regards,
Samar

Crystal Reports for Eclipse plugin and CR XI server

I have a software requirement in which I need to support both internal (CR Eclipse plugin using the report viewer, not sure what the real name of this is) along with external (CR XI server) reporting. In other words, I should be able to display a report (.rpt) that exists on my local app server along with one that exists on the CR XI server. My question is this:
So I have both sets of jar libraries (eclipse plugin and XI server) and I see that some of the them are overlapping (some of the jars have the same name). For the ones that overlap, should I choose the ecilipse plugin or XI server ones...?
One example I found is that the eclipse plugin rasapp.jar contains the POJOResultSetHelper class whereas the rasapp.jar from the XI server does not. In this case, I presume I should use the eclipse version, right?
Thanks for your help!
Louis

Hello Louis,
-If you are using latest version of CR Eclipse plugin using the report viewer,then I would recommend going for JAR files of this eclipse plugin than that of CR XI Server.
-The only reason being Eclipse plugin will give you most updated JAR files.
-Before using JAR files from Eclipse plugin, I would suggest you to update your present JAR files to latest available JAR files.
This can be done through Eclipse using update option.
And once you update them, you can use those JARs.
Thanks,
Chinmay

Crystal Reports for Eclipse vs. Crystal Reports Developer

We are developing a Java web application for internal use. Since we have some people at the company who are familiar with Crystal Reports, we'd like to have them write reports that we can display through our application. Crystal Reports Server seems like overkill for this project, but the <a href="http://devlibrary.businessobjects.com/BusinessObjectsXIR2/en/devsuite.htm#en/JRC_SDK/">JRC</a> sounded like a good fit.
I have been evaluating <a href="http://www.businessobjects.com/products/reporting/crystalreports/developer/default.asp">Crystal Reports Developer</a> and trying out the <a href="http://support.businessobjects.com/communityCS/FilesAndUpdates/crxi_r2_jrc_web_samples.zip.asp">JRC samples</a>. The samples don't use the tag library. Instead, they show how to set session variables and redirect to a viewer JSP which contains a bunch of Java code to use the CrystalReportViewer.
The samples are so much more complex than the code created by Crystal Reports for Eclipse, which simply uses the tag library:
<%@ taglib uri="/crystal-tags-reportviewer.tld" prefix="crviewer" %>
<crviewer:viewer reportSourceType="reportingComponent" viewerName="myreport-viewer" reportSourceVar="myreport" isOwnPage="true">
<crviewer:report reportName="myreport.rpt" />
</crviewer:viewer>
I assume that I should be able to use the same tag library approach without using Crystal Reports for Eclipse, but I haven't seen any tutorials on it. I'm trying to understand whether I should purchase Crystal Reports for Eclipse instead of Crystal Reports Developer.
This is the difference, as I understand it:
Crystal Reports Developer gives you the stand-alone Crystal Reports Designer and the right to run the JRC on an internal server. It costs <a href="http://store.businessobjects.com/store/bobjects/DisplayProductDetailsPage/productID.40434600">$595</a>.
Crystal Reports for Eclipse Standard provides a free report designer built into Eclipse. It also includes the JRC for use on an internal server.
Crystal Reports for Eclipse Professional provides "a more powerful runtime engine" with the right to run it on one internal server. It costs <a href="http://store.businessobjects.com/store/bobjects/DisplayProductDetailsPage/productID.52068100">$495</a>. Is this the same JRC provided with Crystal Reports Developer?
If the "powerful" JRC is the same as Crystal Reports Developer's JRC, could I install Crystal Reports for Eclipse Standard to take advantage of the Eclipse integration and the built-in designer, but use the more powerful JRC from Crystal Reports Developer, which would also give me the stand-alone designer?

Hi there, If you are planning on deploying a JRC application then you should definitely be using Crystal Reports for Eclipse for your runtime engine. It is the latest version of the JRC and includes many updates not available in Crystal Reports Developer.As for "power" the JRC included in CR Developer is on par with the JRC available in the Basic edition of Crystal Reports for Eclipse. The Professional edition of Crystal Reports for Eclipse provides the most powerful version of the JRC available.With the release of Crystal Reports for Eclipse, Business Objects is setting the groundwork for separating Developer needs from the Report Author needs.A professional report author will require a professional report design tool. For these users we are recommending that they purchase Crystal Reports Professional.The developer, on the other hand, generally needs the SDKs and a toolkit to assist with building applications. We believe that these should be available at no cost to the developer, only charging when the application is deployed (in this case a CR4E Pro license). This is different from the current model with Crystal Reports Developer where we have combined a professional report designer plus the required runtime.So, to summarize, definitely use Crystal Reports for Eclipse for your application runtime and have your report authors puchase Crystal Reports Professional. If you need a more powerful engine, access to technical support or plan to deploy on multiple servers then I would recommend purchasing the Crystal Reports for Eclipse Professional license for your development purposes.As for some tutorials on creating viewer pages, the integration in Eclipse provides a very simple way of accomplishing this. I would suggest reading the section titled "Creating a New Viewer Page" in our Getting Started Guide found at the following URL:<a href="/node/320"> http://diamond.businessobjects.com/node/320</a>Let me know if you have some follow-up questions. Regards, Sean Johnson (CR4E Product Manager) <a href="http://www.eclipseplugincentral.com/Web_Links-index-req-ratelink-lid-639.html">Rate this plugin @ Eclipse Plugin Central</a>

Unable to download the Crystal Reports for Eclipse

Hi,I could able to see the download links for "Crystal Reports for Eclipse" in diamond site. But i am not able to download the file completely and the download is not supporting the resume option. Some times the downloads crosses 50% and finally the connection gets disconnected.Is there any alternate way to download the content?Regards,Senthil 

Â Hi Senthil
The onlyÂ way for you to get CR4E is to download it from our web site.
I just made a try, just to check ifÂ our web site was having any troubles today, and it worked fine, so I assume you might be experiencing some troubles on your side with your internet connexion.
I haveÂ successfully downloaded the All-In-One zip file of CR4E, that you can find there :
Â http://diamond.businessobjects.com/node/433
I suggest you give it some more tries.
Thank you for using CR4E.

If you wish to use the Eclipse IDE Software Updater:
1. Start Eclipse 3.4.1 (Gemini) IDE.
2. Select Help -> Software Updates...
3. Select the "Available Software" tab.
4. Click the "Manage Sites..." button.
5. If you do not see the following URL listed:
http://downloads.businessobjects.com/akdlm/crystalreportsforeclipse/2_0/update_site/
 then click "Add..." and add it.
6. Select the above URL in the "Available Software Sites", then click "OK".
7. The Available Software should now list the above URL. Open the node, and you should see "Crystal Reports for Eclipse".
8. Check all checkboxes for "Crystal Reports for Eclipse", and "Install..."
After successful update, you'll see version 2.0.1 listed in Help -> About Eclipse SDK and clicking on the "Crystal Reports for Eclipse" icon (blue swoosh with green diamond).
If you don't see that version listed, here's some troubleshooting tips:
Open a web browser, and Go to the following URL:
http://downloads.businessobjects.com/akdlm/crystalreportsforeclipse/2_0/update_site/site.xml
You should get back a XML file listed the current CR4E plugin and language packs versions. If you get an error instead, it may be because (1) you're in a locked down environment that won't let you access that site, or (2) the CR4E Update Site may be down for maintenance. If the former, you'll have to download the updates by some other means and upgrade manually.

According to the release notes, for the JRCHelperSample to compile, you must set the target runtime for the project.
To do this, either create a project from scratch that uses the Tomcat 5.5 target runtime, or go to the properties menu and ensure that the target runtime is set to the application server you will be using.

Problem with Crystal reports for Eclipse and Postgres-databases

Hi,
Is there a known problem when using a PostgreSQL-database to create a report with Crystal reports Plugin? When I drag a table, then occurs a error-windows, that the object can't created.
I have found a workaround for solving the problem. After new installing Eclipse Platform Version: 3.4.1 Build id: M20080911-1700 and Crystal reports Plugin 11.8.6.v1371 with JRE 1.6.0_01 the error message allways occurs, when I select a table from a PostgreSQL database (Version 8.2). After restarting eclipse you see the last selected tables in the field explorer and you can drag the table fields in the report. A repeated choice of the same table causes aliases for the table in the field explorer after restarting eclipse.

Your issue appears to be a Crystal Reports for Eclipse report designer thing, and not a JRC runtime thing. The JRC runtime does support Type 4 JDBC drivers, but all modern PostgreSQL drivers are Type 4.
The current report designer is more restrictive than the JRC runtime - and PostgreSQL, being not on the supported platforms list, has never been tested with the embedded designer.
Unless there's anybody out there with experience with PostgreSQL and CR4E designer, who would be willing to share their experiences.
Sincerely,

Crystal Reports for Eclipse ver. 2 fails on export to excel

I have downloaded crystal reports for eclipse version 2 (full eclipse setup) and created the sample project.
The new version of JRC looks awesome on the browser. Finally the visual appeal is as good as the .NET version.
However I am having a problem with the export to excel feature. When I select export to excel, I get the following exception
Update: I just realized this problem exists for all the export options
SEVERE: Servlet.service() for servlet CrystalReportViewerServlet threw exception
com.businessobjects.report.web.shared.WebReportingException: getOutputStream() has already been called for this response----
(Full Exception pasted below the message)
I have not made any changes to the sample crystal reports project so I am not really sure what i am missing.
I have Microsoft Vista Ultimate with Crystal Reports 2008 trial version installed.
I have configured eclipse with Tomcat 6.0 and JDK/JRE 1.6
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

I searched on scn and got the listing you mentioned.
The jsp code I am using is as follows.
<%@ page contentType="text/html; charset=UTF-8" pageEncoding="ISO-8859-1" %><%@ taglib uri="/crystal-tags-reportviewer.tld" prefix="crviewer" %><crviewer:viewer reportSourceType="reportingComponent" viewerName="CrystalReport1-viewer" reportSourceVar="CrystalReport1" isOwnPage="true"><crviewer:report reportName="CrystalReport1.rpt" /></crviewer:viewer>
And I get the following exception on selecting any export.
WebReportingException: getOutputStream() has already been called...
So I think maybe this problem is not the same as listed under SAP Note 1199025.
Also the strange thing is I just download the full ganymede version with crystal report for eclipse version 2, and created a default crystal reports website.
The samples were provided automatically, and I have not written any code myself.
Any help would be appreciated.

Crystal Reports for Eclipse and CR2008

SQL-Server 2005
CR 2008, Ver.12.0.0.683
Crystal Reports for Eclipse Plug-in Details:
all Plug-in-files from Business Objects have the Versions 1.0.4.v1094 or 11.8.0.v20060727 except "CR for Eclipse Dev.Guide": Ver. 1.0.0.v1094
I created a report with CR 2008 and load this report with eclipse. A preview in CR and eclipse is running perfect.
When I bind this report to a jsp I get the error "Es wurde keine Rowsetspalte für das SQL-Ausdrucksfeld "strRefNo" gefunden", in english
"no rowset-column for sql-statement "strRefNo""
General this kind of SQL-statement is not working. This statement is a function which needs first a value from the database.
When this value is fixed in the statement, the report is running in the jsp otherwise I get the error.
When I delete this statement in eclispe, save this report, redo my delete and save the report again, the report is running with jsp!
May be, there is a version conflict between CR and eclipse.
I have to create the reports in CR2008 but I can not save the report in CR2008 to an older version.
Is there a newer version for eclipse, which works with CR2008? I could not find any other version.
Do you have other ideas?
Thanks!
Jens

Hi Bryan,
thank you for your good informations.
I have downloaded the complete new eclipse and I don't get this error anymore.
But in the next step, I tried a report with subreports. This is complete not working in Eclipse. When I load this report to Eclipse Ican see and click into the subreports. Each subreport is working in Preview, but the whole reports does not work (black screen), I get the error

Crystal Report For Eclipse: POJO problem

Hi all,
I am using crystal report for eclipse basic version and used POJO-method to implement for users to viewing my report.
I did the following:
I created a sql page (create a target table) and import into crystal report (through crystal report designer under eclipse environment) E.g. let's say I created a table with 10 fields and imported into the crystal report.
Then I drag and drop through crystal report for my report design.
Later if I need to add one more field .....
I need to modified my SQL page and re-import the sql page into my crystal report. HOWEVER, through this re-import process, I lost all the detail/information on the existing report (that mean I need to re-design my report through the designer under eclipse environmet).
My question is: Is there any better way for me to implement my report ???
THANKS .. THANKS a lot as this problem make me use a lot of my time ... THANKS

In the sceario you have described (using a SQLPage as the datasource for the report), unfortunately, this is a limitation of the workflow. If you need to change the SQL, then you essentially need to remove and re-add it to the report which means replacing all the fields on the report.
Instead, I would recommend using a class as the report's datasource. The class would represent the fields that would be used in your POJO object. This way if you need to modify the fields in the POJO, you can simply update the class and use the Verify Database to update the report.

How to use a stored procedure as a datasource in Crystal Report for Eclipse

Hi All,
I've written a stored procedure in oracle 10g with few input parameters and one refcursor output parameter. I want to use this stored procedure as a data source for creating a report in "Crystal Report For Eclipse 3.6.0".
When I tried to add this stored procedure to the report using the connection explorer, I don't see any option to do this. But when I try to add any table, it shows options like "Add to the current report"....
Can anybody assist me how to use a stored procedure as a data source in "Crystal Report For Eclipse"?
Which driver should I use to connect to the oracle database? I tried using JDBC Driver for Oracle.
Thanks in advance.

Crystal reports for Eclipse (CR4E) - taking long time to load

HI
We have used your Crystal reports for Eclipse (CR4E) but it is taking long time to load if the record count is more than 3 million
Our architecture is we are using Oracle DB and web sphere application server both are running on SUN server,
If we buy original version it will work fast?
Or do you have alternative solution for this, this one to implement one of our major client

You have 3 million records, this is going to take time to process. Also, you don't define what is meant by a long time. Are we talking a couple of minutes, or something more like 20 minutes?
The real question is, do you really need the report to bring back 3 million records? Could you do any filtering of the data to reduce the number of records being brought back? Also, 3 million records could vary. is each record a single field, or is it multiple. The more fields, the larger the result set.
Another thing you want to look at, is just how long is the query taking to run against the database.
