Crystal Reports in Java with BEA Weblogic (test drive)

Hello, 
 
The question is: What is wrong with Crystal Reports or BEA Weblogic, when they are working together? And how can it be repaired? 
 
I have a project working with reports. Tried to implement it for crystal reports and found an interesting problem. Crystal Reports didn't work with BEA Weblogic as well as with other servers. 1-2 years ago we just took Tomcat and worked with it. Right now we are interested in working with BEA. 
 
Everything works, but much slower than other servers. The best explanation is just a my tries in the end of the post. I hope some clever man helps me to option Weblogic or at least explains what is wrong. 
 
Test results are: 
 
- Apache Software Foundation - Tomcat 6.0: 
~3 sec for clientDoc.open(reportName, OpenReportOptions._openAsReadOnly); 
~1 sec for crystalReportPageViewer.processHttpRequest(request, response, application, null); 
 
- OC4J - Oracle Containers for J2EE 10g (10.1.3.3.0): 
~4 sec for clientDoc.open(reportName, OpenReportOptions._openAsReadOnly); 
~1 sec for crystalReportPageViewer.processHttpRequest(request, response, application, null); 
 
- Jetty 7.0.0.pre5: 
~2 sec for clientDoc.open(reportName, OpenReportOptions._openAsReadOnly); 
~0 sec for crystalReportPageViewer.processHttpRequest(request, response, application, null); 
 
- BEA Weblogic 9.2: 
~30 sec for clientDoc.open(reportName, OpenReportOptions._openAsReadOnly); 
~8 sec for crystalReportPageViewer.processHttpRequest(request, response, application, null); 
 
simple_cr_webapp.war (30 MB) can be downloaded [here|http://rapidshare.com/files/221096566/simple_cr_webapp.war.html] or [here|http://math.ut.ee/~a30858/simple_cr_webapp.war]:

web.xml //see WAR - generated by Eclipse plugin
sample.jsp //see WAR - generated by Eclipse plugin
sample.rpt //"Consolidated Balance Sheet.rpt" from Eclipse plugin's web-app samples
 
P.S. It is also suites if someone gives a simple project with CR, that works well. I really need to get solution for this problem, so any advises are expected.

I also tried for different java vendors on BEA Weblogic 9.2.
Results for Jrockit are above: 30 sec and 8 sec
Results for Sun are worse than JRockit: 50 sec and 10 sec

Slow execution with BEA Weblogic MSSQL Driver from LD

Any ideas what 3-4 minute delay is from? The stack trace shows it is waiting on the db, but customer says same query executes 'fast' when not executed from LD.
- Mike
LD
I am seeing a strange delay while trying to retrieve data through a database view from MS SQL Server (version : 2000 - 8.00.760) using BEA Weblogic MSSQL Driver version: 3.3.43. Even when I am trying to retrieve a single string record, the query takes more than 3-4 minutes. All other data retrievals against oracle databases all complete within seconds.
I used p6spy to track the jdbc calls and it reports delay in excess of 3 minutes. If the same query is run from a sql analyzer or as a db ctrl in workshop, it returns in seconds. I tried Dataconect drivers also but same result. Changing the jvm also resulted in same behavior.
Even a stripped down query shows same amount of delay occurs:
for $warrantyRep.warranty_info_vw_7 in document("warrantyRep")/db/QADATAPLANADM/dbo/warranty_info_vw
where ($xf:vin_char_1_9 eq $warrantyRep.warranty_info_vw_7/VIN_CHAR_1_9)
and ($xf:vin_char_10_17 eq $warrantyRep.warranty_info_vw_7/VIN_CHAR_10_17)
return
<ns:warrantyRepair>
<ns:dealerCode>{ xf:data($warrantyRep.warranty_info_vw_7/DEALER_CODE) }</ns:dealerCode>
<ns:warrantyRepair>
This is the direct sql call :
select * from warranty_info_vw where vin_char_1_9 = 'JTHBF30G3' AND VIN_CHAR_10_17 = '30142268';
from p6spy logs for the statements invoked by LD:

How to create a report with data using the Crystal Reports for Java SDK

Hi,
How do I create a report with data that can be displayed via the Crystal Report for Java SDK and the Viewers API?
I am writing my own report designer, and would like to use the Crystal Runtime Engine to display my report in DHTML, PDF, and Excel formats. I can create my own report through the following code snippet:
ReportClientDocument boReportClientDocument = new ReportClientDocument();
boReportClientDocument.newDocument();
However, I cannot find a way to add data elements to the report without specifying an RPT file. Is this possible? I seems like it is since the Eclipse Plug In allows you to specify your database parameters when creating an RPT file.
is there a way to do this through these packages?
com.crystaldecisions.sdk.occa.report.data
com.crystaldecisions.sdk.occa.report.definition
Am I forced to create a RPT file for the different table and column structures I have?
Thank you in advance for any insights.

Hi Rameez,
After working through the example code some more, and doing some more research, I remain unable to populate a report with my own data and view the report in a browser. I realize this is a long post, but there are multiple errors I am receiving, and these are the seemingly essential ones that I am hitting.
Modeling the Sample code from Create_Report_From_Scratch.zip to add a database table, using the following code:

Throws the exception
com.crystaldecisions.sdk.occa.report.lib.ReportSDKException: java.lang.NullPointerException---- Error code:-2147467259 Error code name:failed
There was other sample code on SDN which suggested the following - adding the table after calling table.setDataFields() as in:
 String tableName = "Building";
 String fieldname = "Building_Name";
 Table oTable = new Table();
 oTable.setName(tableName);
 oTable.setAlias(tableName);
 oTable.setQualifiedName(tableName);
 oTable.setDescription(tableName) ;
 Fields fields = new Fields();
 DBField field = new DBField();
 field.setDescription(fieldname);
 field.setHeadingText(fieldname);
 field.setName(fieldname);
 field.setType(FieldValueType.stringField);
 field.setLength(40);
 fields.add(field);
 oTable.setDataFields(fields);
 oTable.setConnectionInfo(oConnectionInfo);
 rcd.getDatabaseController().addTable(oTable, null);
This code succeeds, but it is not clear how to add that database field to a section. If I attempt to call the following:
FieldObject oFieldObject = new FieldObject();
 oFieldObject.setDataSourceName(field.getFormulaForm());
 oFieldObject.setFieldValueType(field.getType());
 // Now add it to the section
 oFieldObject.setLeft(3120);
 oFieldObject.setTop(120);
 oFieldObject.setWidth(1911);
 oFieldObject.setHeight(226);
 rcd.getReportDefController().getReportObjectController().add(oFieldObject, rcd.getReportDefController().getReportDefinition().getDetailArea().getSections().getSection(0), -1);
Then I get an error (which is not unexpected)
com.crystaldecisions.sdk.occa.report.lib.ReportDefControllerException: The field was not found.---- Error code:-2147213283 Error code name:invalidFieldObject
How do I add one of the table.SetDataFields() to my report to be displayed?
Are there any other pointers or suggestions you may have?
Thank you

Crystal Report 9 connectivity with WebLogic 10.3.5

Hello,
Is the Crystal Report 9 certified with WebLogic 10.x? Currently WebLogic 8.x is in use. Trying to upgrade the WebLogic.
Thanks

What does this have to do with Database Connectivity?
An I doubt it, CR 9 is about 8 or 9 years old well before 10.3 was released. Check the Platforms PDF's for more info.

Does Crystal Report 10 compatible with JVM 1.5/1.6

Hi,
I am working on a project that use Crystal Report 10 Advanced Developer's Java Reporting Component APIs to generate report. Java Bean Connectivity feature is also used
My client suggests us to use JVM 1.5/1.6, but according to the link http://support.businessobjects.com/communityCS/TechnicalPapers/cr10_supported_platforms.pdf.asp, Crystal Report 10 was only tested with JVM 1.4.2, and Crystal Report 10 is pretty old product, before the JVM 1.5 release
Would like to know if someone has used JVM 1.5/1.6 with Crystal Report 10 Java Reporting Component APIs/Java Bean Connectivity?? if they works together probably

Hi,
You should upgrade Crystal Report 10 to Crystal Report 2008 to keep utilizing publishing from Crystal Report designer or you can use u201CPublishing Wizardu201D to publish these report which are created in Crystal Report 10. But you will not be able utilized any new feature and any bug fixed after Crystal Report 10.
My recommendation will be to upgrade to Crystal Report 2008.
Hope it helps.
Thanks,
Muhammad

How do you reference a Formular Object on a Crystal Report using Java

Hi all,
I am trying to reference an object on my report which contains a Formula field.
I have read the following 2 threads, but they refer to textObjects:
[How do you reference a textObject on a Crystal report using Java|Re: How do you reference a textObject on a Crystal report using Java?]
[Changing the text of ITextObject programatically|Re: Changing the text of ITextObject programatically]
But I cannot even get those to work. I can reference a object which refers to a database field but as soon as I try
reference a textObject or reportObject I just get a NULL variable.
Below is the code I am useing
IReportObject dbField = reportClientDocument.getReportDefController().findObjectByName("BOB1");
IReportObject textBob = reportClientDocument.getReportDefController().findObjectByName("BOB2");
"BOB1" is the name of my DB field Object, and "BOB2" can be a Text box or a Formula item and I just get nothing.
I have just tested it with a FieldHeadingObject and that returns a valid object, so clearly I am going about this the wrong way
for objects I place on the reports which are not driven by the database items.
Ultimately what I want to do is reference an object in the Report Footer which will contain the RecordCount of the number of
records contained in the report, which I am them going to use to determine if the report holds data,
if it does I will print it, else ignore it and move on the the next report. I am doing this so that I can at an extra filter to split
a report up into groups and produce a sinlge PDF for each group instead of one massive PDF containing all the groups.
So if someone has a solution to any of my problems I would be very greatful, and I dont mind being told Im an idiot and should
rather do it another way, as long as you supply that other way
Thanks for the help
Darren
Edited by: Darren Jackson on Dec 16, 2009 7:29 PM
Forgot to add am using CR4Ev2 SP3

Right I have made some headway.
Firstly, Im an idiot. I was making changes and setting up test fields on my report, but then when running the app, I had it looking at
the backup report, which would explain why all the new textbox fields were not being found.
The stupiditity did force me to delve deep and work out a fair bit of how the reports work, so cant complain too much. BUT, I am still
not able to return values of Formula fields and formulas extra. Could someone tell me if this is even possible. I get retrieve the formula field
name, and properties but not its value once the report has been populated. Am I wasting my time?
Well I will continue dismantling my reports till I find the answer, or someone points me in the right direction.
If any one is interested this is the code I used to drill down to my text boxes:
IReportObject recCount = reportClientDocument.getReportDefController().findObjectByName("TB1");
ITextObject obj_RecCount = (ITextObject) recCount;
System.out.println(obj_RecCount.getName());
Paragraphs objP = obj_RecCount.getParagraphs();
for (int i = 0; i < objP.size(); i++){
 ParagraphElements pE = objP.getParagraph(i).getParagraphElements();
 for (int j = 0;j < pE.size(); j++){
 IParagraphTextElement pEE = (ParagraphTextElement) pE.getParagraphElement(j);
 System.out.println(pEE.getText());

Inqmy resource adapter for SAP with Bea Weblogic Server

 Hi everybody,
 Anybody have tried to use INQMY resource adapter for SAP with Bea weblogic server
 It works well with INQMY server, but with BEA I'm getting a lot of problems creating
 the connections.
 Thanks in advance.
 Xavi.


All,
 Here are the steps we (used for internal testing) had to perform to get
 IN-Q-MY adapter for SAP to work with WebLogic:
 The wli.adapter.inqmy.sapr3.spi package contains extensions to the
 In-Q-My J2EE Connector Architecture classes to overcome some limitations
 in the base implementation classes. To get around these issues, we had
 to extend their R3ManagedConnectionFactory, R3ConnectionManager, and
 R3ConnectionFactory classes.
 * The javax.resource.spi.ManagedConnectionFactory implementation
 does not over-ride the equals and hashCode methods correctly. This
 causes problems with WLS 6.1.
 * There is a bug in their javax.resource.spi.ConnectionManager
 implementation for non-managed uses of the adapter. Consequently, their
 adapter cannot be used in a non-managed scenario.
 * The javax.resource.cci.ConnectionFactory class does not support
 the getConnection() method that does not take any arguments (it throws a
 null pointer exception).
 I am attaching the classes discussed above.
 Cheers,
 Chris

Can anyone let me know where is the problem?

Actually, the question boils down to; does the framework support the fonts?
I believe that my question re. this working in the designer was valid. The designer does not use the framework, so if it works there, it is either a framework issue or a runtime print engine issue.
I believe if you use the code below, it will list fonts available to the framework:
foreach(FontFamily ff in FontFamily.Families)
System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine(ff.Name);
For more information see kbase [1198306 - Crystal Report displaying incorrect font in Microsoft Visual Studio .NET|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.km.cm.docs/oss_notes_boj/sdn_oss_boj_dev/sap(bD1lbiZjPTAwMQ==)/bc/bsp/spn/scn_bosap/notes%7B6163636573733d36393736354636443646363436353344333933393338323636393736354637333631373036453646373436353733354636453735364436323635373233443330333033303331333133393338333333303336%7D.do]

How to set DbConnections when scheduling a crystal report using Crystal Reports Server Java SDK?

Post Author: Manjula
CA Forum: JAVA
Hi,
Trying to schedule a report using Crystal Reports Server Java SDK. Want to pass DBConnections from API, though passing DBConnections, the report is not being scheduled and says "Failed to retrieve data from the database.Details:[Database Vendor Code:6550].
Would be thankful if someone could answer my point as applicable.
Here is the code attached.
ISDKList dbLogons = oReport.getReportLogons();int dbLogonSize = dbLogons.size();
for(int i=0; i<dbLogonSize; ++i) {
IReportLogon dbLogon = (IReportLogon)dbLogons.get(i);
dbLogon.setDatabaseName("DBname");
dbLogon.setUserName("usrname");
dbLogon.setPassword("pwd");
Thanks in advance.

Ted,
Thank you for your valuable information.
First, tried scheduling on Central Management Console and then with the java code.It worked fine, but here is another question for you.
On the Console, a report exists with ServerName and UserName harcoded and when trying to set ServerName and UserName from the java code, its throwing exception. Where as Password is not set on Console, am able to set password from java.
And DatabaseName is not set on Console (non editable), unable to set the same from java too. Why is it so?
So, my question is - though ServerName,DatabaseName,UserName,Password exists on the Console report, can't I override those parameters from java?
Would be greatful if you answer my question and provide me some guidance.
Thanks in advance.

Integrating WebSphere MQ 5.3 with BEA Weblogic Server 9.2 3M

I am trying to integrate WebSphere MQ 5.3 with BEA WebLogic Server 9.2 3M. I have found the guide:
Integrating WebSphere MQ 6 with BEA Weblogic Server 10 using Weblogic Server's Foreign (JMS) Server feature [http://ibswings.blogspot.com/]. I have done all steps according this guidance.
I have made modification since, WebLogic Server 9.2 3M does not support EJB 3.0, I am using EJB 2.1, any changes that have been made is create ejb-jar.xml file and configure it according next guide
At the final step when I am deploying service-jar-files (for ex. ejb.jar), I am able to complete this procedure.
When I am starting service (for ex. ejb.jar) from Deployments I am facing a wall: exception appears
weblogic.application.ModuleException: Exception starting module: EJBModule(EJB)
Unable to deploy EJB: EJB.jar from EJB.jar:

As you can see weblogic complains about com.ibm.mq.jmqi.system.JmqiComponent, I googled JmqiComponent but dose not exists which is strange :P. Has anybody what is a reason for such a behaviour.

Hello.
I would ditch the foreign JMS approach. There is a detailed example of how to use the resource adapter for the same goal here:
WebSphere MQ resource adapter and Weblogic - how?
While Oracle supports foreign JMS, IBM won't. The only pattern that both IBM and Oracle support is resource adapter.
Let me know, if you need more guidance.

Build and run Sun's PetStore1.3.1_02 application with BEA WebLogic Server 8.1.

build and run Sun's PetStore
1.3.1_02 application with BEA WebLogic Server 8.1.
5) In the same Command Prompt, compile PetStore using the commands:
cd c:\bea\user_projects\domains\petstore
setPetStoreEnv.cmd
cd c:\petstore1.3.1_02\src
ant
buildfile:build.xml does not exist!
build failed
could you tell me how ?
thank you

What we, BEA, provides is a patch to allow you to compile Pet Store for
WebLogic Server. It does not contain the source code.
Sun's Pet Store source code can be found at
http://developer.java.sun.com/developer/releases/petstore/petstore1_3_1_02.h
tml. See the requirements section of README.TXT
You need both in order to make it work.

Hi Nick,
I tried building the petstore1.3.1_02 application following theinstructions in the readme. But I got an error as the buil.xml file is
missing in the directory.....\petstore1.3.1_02\src.
>
I tried unzipping the downloaded again and for a petstore.domain.jar alongwith the readme. This jar does not contain the build.xml file.
>
Then I tried compiling one by one the component folder and found that the../xmldocuments/src folder has only a build.xml file but no source file...
>
Kinldy suggest what to do? Can you send me the zip via email?
P.S: I have checked the zip and the files are missing.

Problem with crystal report that comes with VStudio 2008 Database edition

Hello,
I'm using crystal reports that comes with Visual Studio 2008 Database edition. But I'm having a problem these days. When there are more than 4 pages in the report, the summary field in the pagefooter(usually sum of data in the Details section) show 0 in the first page.It will be displaying in all other pages. I couldnt sort out the problem.I'm binding data to the report from an SQL Server 2005 table.
Thanks in advance.I really appreciate if some one can sort out the problem quickly.

Have not heard of the issue, but download SP1 and see if that helps:

How to get one crystal report to work with two different backends?

We have a software that can work with either SQL2008 or Visual Fox Pro backend. We are trying to compile One Crystal report that will work with either of the two backends. How to you make sure that your Crystal Report is compiled so that it will work with both backends?
Right now my reports were originally created using the SQL2008 backend and are retaining the DBO reference in the statement, which then will not allow the Crystal report to work with the VFP backend.

You can write your data sets as a command using hand coded SQL. As long as "dbo" is the only schema used in your SQL Server database, you don't need to specify it in the SQL. SQL Server will automatically assume the dbo.
The 2nd thing... The SQL needs to be 100% compatible with both SQL Server 2008 AND VFP. This will limit the list available functions to those that are common to both platforms AND work exactly the same in both platforms.
The other part is to make sure you are using an ODBC type connection instead of OLD/DB. That way all of the connection properties are set on the local machine and the report is simply looking for the System DSN name.
HTH,

Is the 11.1.1.2 software compatible with BEA WebLogic 10.3?

Hi,
Does anyone know, is Oracle EPM version 11.1.1.2 compatible with BEA WebLogic 10.3? I know the recommended version is 9.2 MP3 for Windows 32 bit.
Do we need to get seperate license for WebLogic or is it included in this EPM software bundle?
Thanks for your answers in advance..!

Not sure about the licensing, its best to ask someone at Oracle, but I believe when you when automatic deploy 11.1.1.2 apps to Oracle10gR3 Application Server, it is actually referring to the Oracle Weblogic 10.3 Application Server, not the old Oracle (OAS) 10G Application Server, so it should work. You can also deploy to Weblogic 9.2 and IBM Webshpere automatically. I believe all other application servers may still be compatible but require a manual deployment.

Imran
