Looking for CRconfig.xml

Question

Post Author: something_stupid

Hi,
I wrote a small program that should start the embedded reportviewer and show a report. When I run the program the line
reportClientDoc.open("D:
UserTemp
JRCViewReport.rpt", 0);
throws an exception:
com.crystaldecisions.sdk.occa.report.lib.ReportSDKException: CRConfig.xml Konfigurationsdatei nicht gefunden---- Error code:-2147467259 Error code name:failed
Apparently the CRconfig.xml file cannot be found.
Question1: Can I tell the class ReportClientDocument where to find it?
Question2: If not, where does he look for it?
Question3: Is the CRconfig.xml necessary?
I'm attaching the source code that produces the exception.
Thanks in advance,
Torsten

The JRC requires CRConfig.xml to be found on the classpath.  It holds the license keycode and other configuration information, and so is necessary. Either the containing folder path or the jar file must be listed within the classpath.Sincerely,Ted Ueda
