Hi,
I hope this is right forum to ask my question. As per my requirement I need to generate dynamic reports using BIRT 2.6.1 API, In Servlet when I run the report using IRunAndRenderTask.run() method report output is displayed without a frameset in browser. Please let me know the steps or API methods/parameters to display the report in a BIRT default frameset. Below is a snapshot of my code thanks in advances.
public void doGet(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException, IOException {
//get report name and launch the engine
response.setContentType("text/html");
String reportName = request.getParameter("ReportName");
String[] cols = (String[])request.getParameterMap().get("dyna1");
ServletContext sc = request.getSession().getServletContext();
this.birtReportEngine = BirtEngine.getBirtEngine(sc);
IReportRunnable design;
try
{
//Open report design
design = birtReportEngine.openReportDesign(reportName );
ReportDesignHandle report = (ReportDesignHandle) design.getDesignHandle();
buildReport( cols, report );
//create task to run and render report
IRunAndRenderTask task = birtReportEngine.createRunAndRenderTask( design);
task.setAppContext(new HashMap());
//set output options
HTMLRenderOption options = new HTMLRenderOption();
options.setOutputFormat(HTMLRenderOption.OUTPUT_FORMAT_HTML) ;
options.setOutputStream(response.getOutputStream());
task.setRenderOption(options);
//run report
task.run();
task.close();
}catch (Exception e){
throw new ServletException( e );
}
}

Hi Jason,
Thanks for the response.
The reason for using the BIRT API is that report columns and there data content will be dynamically coming from the database so I need to add the respective information in the report.In my application reports can be a letter type or simple grid type and user can export data in different formats (PDF,word,excel ).I can use the frameset viewer but the problem is I need to populate data dynamically to the reports before it renders to the user.
Please let me know your thoughts on the above requirement.
