Dynamic Reports in java application

Hi,
I want to create dynamic reports in an java standalone application, I have downloaded the Jfreereport <http://sourceforge.net/projects/jfreereport>
I'm not sure, whether it could get data from a JDBC source. (or is there anyother solution to generate dynamic reports in a java application?).
Thanks in advance,
Payam

I generate reports from a webserver ( Tomcat ) in PDF using iText ( www.lowagie.com/iText ). It works great. JFreereport is also using this iText and you shouldn't have any problems using JDBC. Try to read the tutorial first about iText first. This will give you an idea how JFreereport works.

There is a Consulting Solution called BOInterface that Business Objects Global Services sells and that helps you to achieve what you describe very easily.
A description is <a href="http://www.mnsoft.org/bointerface0.0.html">here</a>.
Particularly, see the <a href="http://www.mnsoft.org/boxinterfacedocs/com/bo/boxinterface/boreport/scheduler/BOReportSchedulerPrinter.html">BOReportSchedulerPrinter</a>. BOInterface comes with a complete example on scheduling to printer; that example can even itself be scheduled.

How can i create an dynamic report in Java

hello everybody,
I want to make dynamic reports in Java. Report contain data and images with good layout.. such as crystal reports presentation..
Reports fields decided at run time or we can say that it is generated according to user requirement...
can it is possible in Java. If it is then which tool is better for it..
please suggest me.. this is very urgent requirement for me...

i don't know what types of tools are avaiable in market... Tools for what? You still didn't tell us what exactly you want to do.
i just imagin that
"An user create a database dynamically on server
databaseNobody "dynamically creates a database".
and he decide reports desgin according to
his requirement..... we provide an control for this
type possibilities....."
so this is question is build in my mind.. so i
forward this question to this forums..
I am just going to check the physibility of my mind
imagination...Feasibility you mean. IMHO, the feasibility of creating that stuff yourself is very low. Reinventing the wheel usually doesn't make it better, and it's likely to be more expensive to pay you for creating an inferior solution (not because of lack of skills, but simply because the available products had a few years time to grow, feature-wise) than to simply buy the licenses. Look at Crystal Reports or JFreeChart or Jasper Reports. Or use Google to look up J2EE-based reporting libraries. There might be more.
Which of these is best, I don't know, I never used any of those. Also, the definition of "best" changes with the requirements. What's better, a Ferrari or a truck?

How to accesss the XDO Reports from Java application?
I am wondering that we need to get the URL for accessing the report and call the URL with in Java program?
Is that right? Is there any other option? Any help is greatly appreciated.

You need to write some class based on the BI Publisher APIs taking data, template, output format, etc.

The status of scheduled report in java application ?

Post Author: Jay_Misys
CA Forum: JAVA
My java application is running on application server (websphare / java application server)
I schduled the report published on crystal report server
the java code is like:
BIPlatform bipService = new BIPlatform(new Connection(new URL(servicesURL + "/biplatform")), oSession.getConnectionState());
ResponseHolder rh=bipService.get("path://InfoObjects/"+sCrystal_Reports_Folder + reportName +
"@SI_SCHEDULEINFO,SI_PROCESSINFO" ,oGetOptions);
InfoObjects oInfoObjects = rh.getInfoObjects();
CrystalReport oCrystalReport = (CrystalReport)oInfoObjects.getInfoObject(0);
SchedulingInfo schedulingInfo = oCrystalReport.getSchedulingInfo();
schedulingInfo.setRightNow(Boolean.TRUE);
oCrystalReport.setPluginProcessingInterface(procInfo);
oInfoObjects.setInfoObject(0,oCrystalReport);
bipService.schedule(oInfoObjects);
Pls help me to get the status (running / sucessfully generated/ failed etc...) of scheduled report ?

out = new FileOutputStream(matcher.group(1)+".open" , true);
                      FileChannel ch = out.getChannel();
                                   FileLock lock = ch.lock(0L, Long.MAX_VALUE, false);
                               // Connect print stream to the output stream
                                   p = new PrintStream( out );
                        p.println ("\n" + parms.getProperty( value ) + "\n");
                              p.flush();
                        p.close();
                              lock.release();Ok, I tried implementing locks but I dont know why it is not working...An exception is thrown and nothing is wriiten to the file. I have employed a complete lock on the file so that no other JVM application can use it.
Actually this is a server that grabs data sent from an Iframe and writes it down to a temp file. I open a file input stream, lock it and then use a printwriter strream to write the realyed data to the file. Any inputs as to what is wrong with the code snippet above?????

Printing report in java application

We have a java application with crystal report implementation. In this we have a option for printing the crystal report. While invoking the printing api we have the following error insteadof printing the report.
"The maximum report processing jobs limit configured by your system administrator has been reached."
Please help me for this issue.

I think you need to set the following Registry Key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\CRYSTAL DECISIONS\10.0\REPORT APPLICATION SERVER\SERVER\PrintJobLimit

How to Print reports with Java Application

I'm developing a database application in java using rmi and swings. Now I want to take some printout of reports from that application. Is any report designer available for java applications. How can i solve this problem. Please help me.

Hi
I don't know i f exist a tool like you want, but, in Java
the print job is implemented by a class implementing the Printable interface.
A class "Printable" must implement the print method like is defined at scpec. This method, via the params, can do print by "drawing" the page and, finally, return an integer
indicate if the print loop must continue or not.
The drawing op over the printer Graphics context is realized by methos of Graphics object (if you want "print"
some text you can do g.drawString("some text",x,y) and so on).
See the tutorials for more info
Hope this help

IText vs Jasper Java Application Source Code

Where can I find sample source in Java to get CSV reports using Itext?
Please reply . Its urgent. Thanks in advance.

jasper allows csv as data source.. jasper has JRCsvDataSource class and methods for handling it.

Viewing reports generated by BOXI in local Java application?

Hi,
I am developing a Java client that will act as a front-end to a BOXI R2 server and am having some problems finding a suitable way to display the generated reports in an integrated manner.
I have been using the Web Services component to interact with the server as this seems like the easiest (only) way to run reports on demand, including setting parameters. The ReportViewerBean java applet seems like the only tool available to integrate in a client java application but I have some problems with it. The only way I have been able to get it to display a report is by getting an IReportSource from the page server. It also doesn't let me set parameters programatically and so what my app has to do at the moment is set parameters and retrieve a view using the web service, put the retrieved view back on the server in a temporary location and then retrieve the temporary view on the server using the IReportSourceFactory and feed that to the ReportViewerBean.
This solution is no good and I need some help getting this to work.
I have used an ActiveX CR viewer component in a separate project written in VB6 which allowed me to set parameters, data sources, ect. and run the report. It was very flexible, but unfortunately tied to windows. Is there any similar component available in java that isn't as crippled as the ReportViewerBean and allows me to just view the report I retrieved from the server?
Thanks,
Elliot.

The Crystal Report Viewer looks good, but it seem that it's only available for Windows and Mac platforms. The reason why I am using Java is because the company I am working for has clients using both Windows and Solaris workstations.
The reporting component I am investigating needs to be integrated with our current software solution.
There are a few requirements that restrict this to an integrated solution:
We will be managing cascading and custom dynamic prompts and feeding formatted strings from that to the report parameters
Solution has to be cross platform, including Unix platforms
Interface has to be restricted so that viewing, printing, exporting can be controlled and audited by us.
An interface that I can catch hyperlink events from to trigger extra functionality in the parent program.
Thanks for the suggestion, but are there any other thick client java options for viewing a generated report?

Error while running Java application using Crystal Reports 2011

Hello,
I would like to ask for your help.
Environment details:
Java based standalone application in Development environment.
Crystal Reports 2011 (no SP applied)
Oracle 11g ( 32 bit client installed)
Win7 64 bit OS.
Workflow:
While running the java application, which will display the reports I am getting the below mentioned error. I guess that is because I am missing the Crystal runtimes (Correct me if I am wrong).
I know that CR2011 do not have any sdks/ jar available for deployment. In this case, which runtimes should I be using? Does installing CR2011 be enough in the development box?
Please provide me the link from which I can download the same.
Let me know if I need to provide more details on this. Any suggestions are most welcome.
Thank You.

Report Engine SDK - Rbean usage in standalone java application

Post Author: Berndb
CA Forum: JAVA
In BOXI the rebean sdk is available in the Report Engine SDK.
I remember that in the 6.5 world one could use RBEAN interface in a standalone java application.
Is this still possible in BOXI R2?
If yes can you supply a sample classpath which shows all libraries that needs to be assigned.
Thanks in advance.

Ted's right, but for fun, take what you need from:
<installation drive>:\Program Files\Business Objects\Tomcat\webapps\businessobjects\enterprise115\desktoplaunch\WEB-INF\lib
and de-reference what's not needed when your project's done, but be careful.
I've actually done some standalone Swing-based webi report renderers using https://xhtmlrenderer.dev.java.net/ + docHTMLView.getStringpart + TagSoup
