"Create Report" OR ONLY "edit report" with java?

Dear all
Is it possible to create a new crystal report with java?
Do you have some classnames, methodenames, etc that bring me back on the right track?
I found: "With the latest versions of Crystal, there is no way to actually allow your users to create a report. There used to be a COM component called "RDC", but that was deprecated with Crystal XI and is no longer available."
My Version is Crystal Reports 2008 - is this still up to date?
best regards!

You would want to look for Crystal Reports for Eclipse 2.0 which is the equivalent Java SDK for Crystal Reports 2008. You can then find samples for Report Modification [here|http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/BOBJ/CrystalReportsJava+SDKSamples#CrystalReportsJavaSDKSamples-ReportModification]
Generally you need to start with loading an rpt file, but this report can be blank.

Create Report with CR4E and XML Data Source

Hi all,
I have a problem when create a report with CR4E that should use a XML data source. It is not possible to choose fields from the field explorer, because ther are no fields from the XML-file. Is there a general problem when using an ODA data source in CR4E? At the moment I can only create reports with a database as data source.
Please help me with a tip.
Thanks
Arnold

Hi,
After Installing CR4E Version 2 the code snippet for creating a XML-report not works as JSP. Has anywhere a hint to resolve the problem or a complete JSP-file?
reportClientDocument = new ReportClientDocument();

How to create reports for java programs?

Hi,
I have planned to do a project using java,that will help to create reports for java programs. To create reports for java programs i used two options.
1)Crystal reports
2)Write the code to produce reports for each java programs
The second one little cumbersome.SO i planned to develop a software that is compatible for creating java reports.
I would like to know how i will do the project?Can you help me to made it a successful project.Hope you can help me.
Expecting your reply
PreethiRenjith

Uggg... Crystal reports...
I would personally write a generic report generator, It would probably be easier than fighting w/
crystal reports (CR is popular, but painful :) )
Anyhow, I've written report generators for many different applications. It is one of the simplest projects you
can take on, and the results make you feel special --
If your need nicely formated, portable, printable reports, you could have your report generator make PDF files (the format is open, and VERY simple, plus people like pdf files) you can get the pdf spec from adobe or from wotsit.org (the famous wotsit file format archive).
enjoy!

Creating report in java

i m developing an application -- student information system-- and i want some way to create reports in java. can soebody help me out.. pls.......!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
dheeraj.

Of course this is a real big problem in java programming. There are lot of 3rd party tools for this . But if you look for a free solution ,We have a JFreeReport at
http://www.jfreereport.org
check this site for more information .
But jfree report needs lot of coding and XML Codings.
To get away from this Try IReport tools which is GUI based designing environment.

Primary key when creating reports with forms

I'm new to APEX and I'm creating a report with forms using the wizard. I've checked the 'Include Analysis Pages' checkbox. When I select the 'add pages' button I get the following message:
Table has no primary keys defined. A primary key is required when creating reports with forms.
I know that the table does have a primary key because I defined it and also it is visible in the Sql workshop / Object browser and Toad.
Am I missing something or is this some sort of bug?
thanks
sb

You're missing something. This message means you've not told APEX what the primary key is. You shouldn't have been able to get passed the page in the wizard that asks for it though. Can't describe where it prompts for it from memory, but it shouldn't be hard to find.

Crystal Reports with Java in Unix Environment

We have Crystal Enterprise Professional Edition and Embedded Edition v10 with us.We want to use them for generating reports in our development project.
We have to generate reports as batch jobs ( scheduled jobs) for which we will have a Java Application running in Z/OS (Unix zSeries). This Java Application will connect to our database(DB2) and retrieve data which should be filled in the report design(template).
1.Can the .rpt file have the design alone(without the data from database).?
2.Can we fill the data from the database using the .rpt file in a Java Application using an API ?
3.Can we export this file(report with data) to a text file with a specific character encoding.?
All the above has to be done using a Java Application that will run in a Z/OS(Unix Environment).
4.Is Java API for the above operations available as a .jar file that can be included in our classpath in UNIX Environment ?
I request you all to help me with these queries as soon as possible.
Million Thanks in Advance.

Hi,
It seems that you are having issue with Crystal reports Java SDK's.
Post your question in Java Development - Crystal Reports forum.
That forum is monitored by qualified technicians and you will get a faster response there. Also, all Java Development queries remain in one place and thus can be easily searched in one place.
Thank you for your understanding

Creating report with multiple queries in clear quest

Hi,
I am new to reports and currently working with creating reports that connect to clear quest(CQ).
I have successfully created several reports, that connect to the CQ, but they all have data from only one query.
Now I am trying to create a slightly complex report where I need to fetch data from multiple queries. All these queries use 2 parameter to filter their data. I have dynamic cascading parameters to get them. When just connecting they all work ok. I used the link tab to link them to two fields of one query, to make sure that they all filter to fields from same query.
The problem is when I drop the fields from the various queries on the form, the data is fetched multiple times.
I also played with links to make them outer links but in that case I get error and unable to run the report completely.
Any ideas on how to work with multiple queries and provide same parameters to all of the queries?
Thanks in advance.
-PAP

- How do I make sure that the relationship is not one to many?
You don't. That's the nature of the data. For example a single person can order multiple items. A simple one to many relationship.
- In the link tab, I can only point to queries, is there a way I can point the fields to report params?
You should be seeing tables... I think you're having a tough time with the basic terminology.
- How does these Enforce Joins (4 options) work.
There is rarely if ever any reason to switch from the default "not enforced". Leave it alone. The only one you'll touch 90% of the time is the Join Type.
PAP,
Based on the questions you're asking, it sounds like you are missing some major database fundamentals. My suggestion would be to step away from CR for the time being and read a little bit about relational databases (what makes them relational) and database normalization. This will also give you an idea about the various join types and when to use one over the other.
You can know every feature and function in CR, but until you have at least a basic knowledge of how data relates, you'll never pull in the data you need.

Create report with filtered teststeps

Hello,
i am using TS3.5 and want to create a report with only selected teststeps included.
For this i created in my custom teststeos a container called "Config" and inside this container a
bool-parameter called "ShowIt".
Then i opended Teststand -> Configure -> Report-Options and set
"Result Filtering Expression" to "Config.AddIt == True"
When i run then the sequence i get a popup after finishing which says:
ActiveX Error
sCode = 0xffffbc66
Description: Unknown variable or property name "Config"
Error accessing item "Config".
But when i copy the parameter "AddIt" into Result.AddIt and change the
"Result Filtering Expression" to "Result.AddIt == True" then it works!
Why cant i use a custom container for this filtering?
The standard-teststand models stops then with Error in the TestReportCallback at teststep "Get Report Body (DLL)"
Thanks for your help.

Yes, this is enabled.
I attached the testsequence and a screenshot of the report-options.
In the sequence i copied the default "passfail-Test" and added there a container "Config" with a bool-variable "AddIt"
This new steptyp is then called twice in the mainsequence where the first call is AddIt == False and trhe second call AddIt ==True.
Then i changed the report-options as you can see in the attached screenshot.
But then i get the error-message.
What am i doing wrong here?

Reports with java......

hello everyone.
i need to generate reports in my app.
what tool should i use with java?? or i can use any tool to create reports??
thanx

It depends what you want to do - what do you mean by "reports".
One way to generate "reports" is to just export the data as a comma-separated value (CSV) file, that can then be picked up by whatever application (e.g. a spreadsheet) the user wants. Of course this has disadvantages, namely relying on external apps and the user's knowledge of external apps.
If you are using Swing, you can print whatever is on the screen, just look at the javax.print package. There was also some print support in AWT.
If you are asking, how do I create graphs/charts within your app, take a look at JFreeChart, http://www.object-refinery.com/jfreechart/index.html. I haven't used it personally but have had a look at it, and it looks quite nice, if a little over-cooked.

Integrating Crystal reports with Java Portal (test=pluto,Prod=Vignette

Hi,
Crystal reports is new to me...so please don't mind if i sound outright silly, and would love a shove in the correct direction.
This question might have been asked here (I tried searching for this.)
Problem: We have some old CR9 reports with us which we want to migrate to our Portal installation Vignette Portal.
I have seen some Portal integration kits but after having a look at them it seems it is ir-relevant to us...as it requires some server running...we don't have that.

Update:
After more investigation, it looks as if the BO Server "CrystalReports2013ReportApplicationServer"
from time to time has an issue - not only when promoting, but also when viewing publications that contain Crystal Report documents or when executing them, the java class error or similar issue is thrown.
Did sb face similar behaviour and knows what is the root cause for "CrystalReports2013ReportApplicationServer" not working probably and throwing the java-class error? - it was running fine for several months, now, the class error showed up twice in one month.
We need to find out what is causing the issue (aleady checked tomcat and BO-logfiles...).
Best Regards
Florian
