Passing SQL to Crystal Reports Server using JAVA

Question

Hi all,
  We are in the process of redoing our Java app and we would like to create SQL query and pass this to Crystal Reports Server to have it generate a report.
  I've looked all over but still could not find any info on it.  Does anyone know how this is done or know where I can find some information on this?
  I've looked at some of the examples from BO but did not find anything relating to what I need to have.
Thanks in advance.

Hey,
Have a look at https://boc.sdn.sap.com/node/452
There some other great webinars on the left side also.
Hope that helps.
Else if you wanting to run some SQL before loading the report search for something along the lines of:
(But I warn you this is not the correct coding, I have just quickly cut and paste a
few bits from one of my reports but you should get the idea, hopefully,
might have to use your imagination.)
Connection connection = null;
CallableStatement cs;
Class.forName(dbDriverName);
// Create a connection to the database
connection = DriverManager.getConnection(dbConnectionURL, dbUsername, dbPassword);
// Call a procedure with one IN parameter
cs = connection.prepareCall("{ CALL " + str_ProcStatement + "}");
cs.setString(1, str_Param1);
