Hello,

can you please help me? How it's possible to start a birt report from a java class.
I'm using struts framwork and want to start different reports inside the action class. How is this possible? Instead of using javascript I want to do this in the action class:

function loadViewerchartViewer(){
var formObj = document.getElementById( "form_reports" );
// plant
var param = document.createElement( "INPUT" );
//find plant param
param.type = "HIDDEN";
param.name = "plant";
param.value = document.getElementById("plantId").options[document.getElementById("plantId").selectedIndex].text;
formObj.appendChild(param);

//find report name
param.type = "HIDDEN";
param.name = "reportId";
param.value = document.getElementById("id").options[document.getElementById("id").selectedIndex].text;
formObj.appendChild(param);

// subfamily
if (document.getElementById("wert1_2") != null && document.getElementById("wert1_2").selectedIndex > -1) {
var param = document.createElement( "INPUT" );
param.type = "HIDDEN";
param.name = "subfamily";
param.value= document.getElementById("wert1_2").options[document.getElementById("wert1_2").selectedIndex].text;
formObj.appendChild(param);
}

formObj.action = "
formObj.target = "_new";
formObj.submit();
}
Can anybody help me?

In the java class I want to start the reports inside this function:
public void go_onClick(FormActionContext ctx) throws InvalidUserException,
ParseException, Exception {
logger.info("go_onclicked Gladius Export action");
}

Thank you

Hello Claudia,
If you want to trigger reports rendering from within a struts action, you should have a look on the Task rendering APIs which allow you to schedule the rendering of a report and get the result either as HTML, PDF or any other format supported by BIRT emitters.

You could also forward your action to a BIRT ReportViewer (deployed in servlet container of your choice) to let the user interact with the report parameters...

Regards,

Jean-Baptiste

Are you wanting to call the BIRT engine API or a URL to the deployed
BIRT Viewer? What version of BIRT are you using?
