Chart report labels do not show up the chart labels in the linux environment [message #643760]

Hi All,

I am generating a bar chart.The bar chart shows up properly when i am generating it in the windows environment.But the same rpt design does not show up the chart labels(i.e. , X-axes labels,Y-axis labels and labels for legends) in the linux environment.

Any suggestions will be really helpful..

Can you give some more detail on how you are generating it?
Are you using your own servlet or using the webviewer?

Hi Jason,

These are the details below:

1) I am using My own servlet
2)The enivironment is linux
3)Open jdk version 1.6.x
4)I am rendering the response on the servlet.
5)Birt version I am using is 2.6.0

below is the code of the report rendering,

ReportEngine engine = null;
IReportRunnable report = null;
engine = BIRTEngineFactory.getReportEngine("C:\birt-runtime-2_6_0\birt-runtime-2_6_0\ReportEngine ");
report = engine.openReportDesign("C:\MyReport.rptdesign");
IRunAndRenderTask task = engine.createRunAndRenderTask( report );
RenderOption options = new RenderOption( );

options.setOption(IPDFRenderOption.PAGE_OVERFLOW,
IPDFRenderOption.OUTPUT_TO_MULTIPLE_PAGES);
options.setOutputStream(os);
task.setRenderOption( options );
try{
//System.out.println("beforeeeeeeeee run");
task.run();
//System.out.println("aftreeeeeeee run");

}catch ( EngineException e1 )
{
e1.printStackTrace();
System.err.println( "Report " + name + " run failed.\n" );
//System.err.println( e1.toString( ) );
}

Do you set the supported image formats in the servlet?
HTMLRenderOption options = new HTMLRenderOption();
options.setOutputFormat("html");
options.setImageDirectory(sc.getRealPath("/Images"));
options.setBaseImageURL(request.getContextPath()+"/Images");
options.setSupportedImageFormats("JPG;PNG;BMP;SVG");

Look at the generated html and look for the img src tag. Verify the
image gets created.

hi Jason,

I am generating the report in pdf format... And the graph renders properly for pdf on windows But that is not in linux..

I dont think we need to use the following piece of code for generating it in pdf..

options.setImageDirectory(sc.getRealPath("/Images"));
options.setBaseImageURL(request.getContextPath()+"/Images");
options.setSupportedImageFormats("JPG;PNG;BMP;SVG");

Are you getting anything in the log?
Can you try html and see if it is creating the images?

Can you post what the img src tag is showing? Do you get anything in
the log file?

Also as a test can you deploy the web viewer and see if html and pdf
show the report?

Hi Jason,

It generates in the webviewer. But when I am trying to render in the servlet,The graph image does not show up(the title of the graph shows up)...

the image src path is

file:/C:/xampplite/htdocs/myimages/custom7.jpg

I checked the location and the image has been generated in that location.

below is My code for generating the report in HTML

HTMLRenderContext renderContext = new HTMLRenderContext();
renderContext.setBaseURL("http://localhost/");
//Tell the Engine to prepend all images with this URL - Note this requires using the HTMLServerImageHandler
renderContext.setBaseImageURL("http://localhost/myimages");
//Tell the Engine where to write the images to
renderContext.setImageDirectory("C:/xampplite/htdocs/myimages ");
//Tell the Engine what image formats are supported. Note you must have SVG in the string
//to render charts in SVG.
renderContext.setSupportedImageFormats("JPG;PNG;BMP;SVG");
HashMap<String, HTMLRenderContext> contextMap = new HashMap<String, HTMLRenderContext>();
contextMap.put( EngineConstants.APPCONTEXT_HTML_RENDER_CONTEXT, renderContext );
htmlRenderOption.setEnableAgentStyleEngine(true);
htmlRenderOption.setOutputFormat(HTMLRenderOption.OUTPUT_FOR MAT_HTML);
htmlRenderOption.setOutputStream(os);
htmlRenderOption.setEmbeddable(true);
htmlRenderOption.setOption( IRenderOption.HTML_PAGINATION,
Boolean.TRUE );
task.setRenderOption( htmlRenderOption );
task.setAppContext(contextMap);
task.getAppContext().put(EngineConstants.APPCONTEXT_CLASSLOA DER_KEY ,ReportBuilder.class.getClassLoader());

os = outputstream which I am geting in the servlet as (response.getOutputStream(); )

ReportBuilder = it is the class in which the above code has been written

Srikanth

What version of BIRT are you using?
If you are using one of the newer versions 2.3-2.6
Replace the HTMLRenderContext code with just this:

HTMLRenderOption options = new HTMLRenderOption();
options.setOutputFormat(HTMLRenderOption.OUTPUT_FORMAT_HTML) ;
options.setOutputStream(resp.getOutputStream());
options.setEmbeddable(true);
options.setImageHandler(new HTMLServerImageHandler());
options.setBaseImageURL(req.getContextPath()+"/images");
options.setImageDirectory(sc.getRealPath("/images"));

create the images directory at the top level of your web app.
req and resp are the request and response objects.

I am not certain what is happening. If you use the viewer and export to
pdf on linux does it work?

Hi Jason,

I have one issue generating chart in HTML.

Every time I generate chart(in HTML),I have to create an image of the graph and store in My hard disk.Is there any way I can render the graph in the HTML without creating the image(like the way it does for the chart in the PDF format)..

Srikanth

If you are using the Chart Engine this can be done, but with the BIRT
report engine I do not know of a way. You could look at the
IHTMLImageHandler interface, but most of the methods return strings.
This is the interface that the HTMLServerImageHandler class implements.
When the engine runs it creates the file and sets up an image map to
handle interactivity which works with the img src tag in HTML. Could
you write a shell script to cleanup the files periodically?

Hi Jason,

Is it possible to use engine based on the type of report (PDF,HTML,word doc) I want to genrate?

Not sure what you need here, but you could add a jsp to the viewer that
is called before going to the viewer. The JSP could check the format
and then forward to either the viewer or another servlet which uses the
engine.
