Java Report Tools
Discusion about Java Report Tool, if you want to know how to make reports in Java and you don't know how.
The best one in my opinion is ireport or jasper report which has GUI for report creations and all the functionalities that a report requires and due to its XML representations, it is standard too and it is quite easy to access and use...........

Java Reporting Tools: Proprietary Tools
I have created this topic: Java Reporting Tools and I received lots of good answers about open-source tools.
At the same time, only one person told something about proprietary tools :) So, I have another question :): Which proprietary tools are worth the time and the money in this field (Java Reporting Tools) ?This forum is for questions about the javadoc tool that generate API documentation. The question seems off-topic, so you might not get an answer here.

ADV: New java reporting tool
Windward Reports (http://www.WindwardReports.com) is a fast, easy, and powerful xml reporting system that allows you to quickly layout reports using Microsoft Word and then create reports in rtf, html, or pdf format using an xml file for the data and the word document you created as the report template.
Very simply, with Windward Reports you lay out your report in Microsoft Word (or any word processor that can save a document in rtf format). In Word you use all of it's powerful layout and formatting properties to set exactly how you want the report to look.
Where you want data in the report, you type the following directly into the Word document "<=:/order/customer/first_name>". You can also put in a while-end, an if-end, and an if-else-end. In the case of a while-end, as it iterates through each element, inside the while you can have additional <=:...> replacements.
Once you have created the report, it is saved as an rtf file. You then feed Windward Reports this rtf template file and an xml data file, and it then merges the data into the template and creates a final report, with all of the formatting and positioning as set in your original template. This final report can be written as html (3.2), html (with .css), pdf, rtf, or txt.
Elements are identified within the <=:...> commands using xpath. So it is a very powerful and complete system available to specify what data to display, what data to enumerate through, and what order to enumerate in.
At present Windward Reports is available as a Java library (.jar). It is passed streams (that of course can be files, but do not have to be) and returns the report in a passed in stream.
thank you - David ThielenJ2EE reporting is quite an interesting topic and I am glad they alerted us to their product. Using rtf and xml is a great idea!

RE: (forte-users) Reporting tools/components for ForteApplications?
Hi Robert,
A good place to start when it comes to reporting is Forte Consulting. They
have developed a tool called ReportKit, which is ActiveX integration with
Seagate Software's Crystal Reports tool. Crystal is not really a three-tier
tool (although, your Forte Consultant can probably set it up to mimic a
three-tier tool), but it is a quick, easy way to get quality reports from
your existing Forte applications. If you're interested, give your Forte
Sales Rep (or, better still, your Forte Regional Consulting Director) a
call. They can discuss pricing and scheduling. I've done several
integration projects with Crystal, and I highly recommend ReportKit for
small- to medium-sized reporting requirements. As for costs, I don't recall
how much CrystalReports runs, but I think there are developer licenses and
runtime licenses.
FYI, the actual integration of ReportKit is pretty quick. The more
time-consuming piece of any report tool integration is the design and
implementation of the reports to be used.
I hope this helps.

Subject: (forte-users) Reporting tools/components for Forte
Applications?
Hi all,
We are looking for what is currently in the marketplace to enhance the
reporting
capabilities of Forte. Ideally, we are looking for component libraries that
we
could import into our repository. Do these exist?
Currently, I have found six reporting tools that are out there. The
tools
are Actuate, Crystal Reports, Report Workshop from Indus Consultancy
Services, Brio Technologies (SQR) VisualBRIO, Visual CyberQuery from
Cyberscience Corp., and Beacon from Brahma Software Solutions FORTify
Components. Are there any others for Forte?
If anyone is currently using one of these Reporting Tools for Forte or
any
others, could you give me any indications as to the costs, training, type
of
application using the Reporting tool, would you recommend using the
product
again, does it use wrappering or API, or is it a component based tool, and
any
other relevant information on the product?
Thanks,
Robert Brooke

Note: We are currently developing in Forte 3.0.L.2. However, we would
like
to select a reporting tool/component within the next month. We are in the
initial phases of our next project, an application to be developed
in-house.
Probably will have two databases, one for real-time data and another one
for
archived data. Probably will need reporting functionality and capabilities
for
both real-time data and archived data.

Forte 4GL is:
1) A language, TOOL (Compare to Java)

3) A collaborative development environment, with central repository (Compare

4) A distributed application server / object request broker (Compare to J2EE
servers and/or CORBA)Let's not forget WebEnterprise, Express, and especially Fusion.
I think, SUN is not al all interested in TOOL.If TOOL were just a language and had no market yet, you are probably
right. But, not only is TOOL the key to the Forte environment, but it has
an existing and profitable market. Sun still sells FORTRAN, after all, and
continues to put money into ADE development for all its language
products. The real kicker, though, is that I think iPlanet is very clear
that Fusion, now iIS, is a very key product for them. There may be those
who wish it were written in Java and who might lobby for doing a Java
version, but it was clear at the conference that the iPlanet management
recognize that Java just isn't up to the task at this point. It isn't as
if all the iPlanet tools are actually written in Java, after all.
They will only support them for as long as they need.Or, more likely, for as long as they make money.
Now, in response to Microsofts .NET stratagy. We have yet to see how
succesfull this will be, but I expect Microsoft to push this down the
throats of developers and companies quite succesfully.Like they did DCOM?

I am new to creating reports from JDBC and Java. I am creating a web frontend to a database and want to allow users to
load reports based on data from the database, which I access using JDBC and MyBatis.
Is there a good, hopefully free, Java tool that is good for creating reports maybe one that creates PDFs, XLS and also can send emails?
Thanks for the thoughts, I found some information by searching, but it is all over the map and hard to tell what functions best.Of the plethora of reporting tools I saw that seemed to be the most widely used open source one. I'll check it out, thanks. Anyone else have an opinion good or bad on jasper or think another one is better?
Thanks to all -

<%@ page import="jimm.datavision.*" %>
<%@ page import="jimm.datavision.layout.HTMLLE" %>
<%@ page import="org.xml.sax.InputSource" %>
<%@ page import="java.io.*" %>
<%!
static final String DATABASE_PASSWORD = "somepassword";
static final String REPORT_FILE ="reporte.xml";
%>
<%
Report report = new Report();
report.setDatabasePassword(DATABASE_PASSWORD);
report.read(REPORT_FILE);
File tmp = File.createTempFile("datavision", null);
tmp.deleteOnExit();
HTMLLE le = new HTMLLE(new PrintWriter(new FileWriter(tmp)));

the file reporte.xml is in the root of the app, with the index.jsp
I'm using windows xp pro, with tomcat 5.5.9
Someone have an Idea?????Which file did you download? If iReport, you should have a program group in your Windows Start menu. If JasperReports, it is a Reporting Framework. You have to implement JasperReports in your other Java code. There are numerous examples of how to do this in the JasperReports forums as well as available through a simple Google search.
We implemented JasperReports through a java bean that was called by a JSF (Java Server Faces) application. You will need to create a Java method, be it a JavaBean or Java Servlet, etc., in order to implement JasperReports. This is explained in the documentation. :-)

Dear All,
Having read this post :- Data Load Reporting Tool
I have come to the conclusion that there isn't any such tool for monitoring of daily loads and the like.
Can anyone tell me is it possible to have the underlining tables for RSPCM & RSMON delivered as a Web Page for daily exceptions only? Would this need to be written in ABAP or some form of javascript ?
We are running BI7 but have yet to install the JAVA stack, so JAVA solutions not really viable at this time.
Any ideas or preferably solutions appreciated.
Thanks
Craig.Hi JR
No this will not work. The Discoverer J2EE only works against an Oracle application server.

I am trying to use a third party reporting tools.
I have found one I like from Inetsoft.
The problem I am having is running the sample code they provide. I keep getting the error of method not found in my package.class file. They have provide sample.java files, I am not sure how to get jdev to see the method.
here is the .java code:
package smart_package;
import inetsoft.sree.*;
import inetsoft.report.*;
public class SimpleReplet extends BasicReplet
public ReportSheet createReport(RepletRequest req) {
StyleSheet report = new StyleSheet();
report.addText("This is a very simple Replet!");
return report;
here is the event code:
<event name="print_report" >
<method class="smart_package.SimpleReplet" method="createReport"/>
</event>
my question is why do I get this error:
Warning(43,73): report.uix: Parsing error, line 43, column 73: Could not find method createReport in smart_package.SimpleReplet
also if anyone has a suggest on a third party reporting tool let me know.
thanksI think that I figured out my own problem. my problem was method not found in class.
here is the solution:
I need a method with a EventResult to start the process. and then that method would call the third party method.
package smart_package;
import java.util.*;
import java.text.*;
import java.io.*;
import inetsoft.report.*;
import inetsoft.report.io.*;
import oracle.cabo.servlet.BajaContext;
import oracle.cabo.servlet.Page;
import oracle.cabo.servlet.event.EventResult;
import oracle.cabo.servlet.event.PageEvent;
public class PrintReport
public PrintReport()
// HERE IS THE KEY!!!
public static EventResult StartPrint(BajaContext context,
Page page,
PageEvent event)
createReport();
return null;
public static void createReport()
try
StyleSheet report = new StyleSheet();
report.addText("This is a simple report");
PreviewView previewer = Previewer.createPreviewer();
previewer.print(report);
previewer.pack();
previewer.setVisible(true);
previewer.setExitOnClose(true);
catch(Exception ignore) {}
my event on the uix page:
<event name="print_report" >
<ctrl:method class="smart_package.PrintReport" method="StartPrint" />
</event> -
