How to display BIRT Report output embedded in browser [message #247621]

Hi,
I have created one .rptdesign file. When I try to view this file in Web
Browser/as HTML/as PDF, the output is shown in BIRT viewer.

I want to integrate these reports with our J2EE application. My requirement
is that output report should be shown in the browser(say I.E.) instead of
BIRT viewer.
In short, if I select view report in HTML, then the output HTML report
should be embedded in the browser(e.g. IE).

Please let me know how to achive this..

Regards,
Anuradha.

Hi,

you can use run_report function.

Here I am posting one sample link. This link doesnt work but you can build
your own link like this to run you report in web-browser.

http://IP:localhost/BIRT201/run?__report=Dashboard\report1.r ptdesign&StartDate=01-JAN-2007&EndDate=01-JUN-2007

Hope this helps.

Hi Hardik,
Can you please explain me this again? I am still not clear about the
link which you gave to me.

Is run_report Oracle function? Can you please give me links to the
documentation for this if possible?

Regards,
Anuradha.

Hi,

http://wiki.eclipse.org/Servlet_Example. (You can use this but I didnt
follow this link)

Actually i am not sure about any doucmentation. This is what one of my
senior found in my company and he tought me how to use it.

http://IP:7001/BIRT201/run?__report=Dashboard\Management.rpt design&StartDate=01-JAN-2007

i am using weblogic BEA and I deployed folder BIRT201 to weblogic. If you
are using any other web server than you have to first find online that how
can you deploy ur report's folder to the server.

The above link is the one which I use to execute Management.rptdesign
report that I had created.

Now-(To run on your local machine) suppose you created sample1.rptdesign
report. Now you have to find ur IP and type at the place of IP in above
link.
- type your folder name in which your report is saved. In my case it it
Dashboard.
-type you report name. in my case it is Management.rptdesign
-if you have any parameters for that report type & then your parameter
name and = then your parameter value.

using this way you can execute you report by writing this type of link in
your web browser.

so finally your link will be -

http://Your IP:7001/deployed folder name/run?__report=folder
name\reportname.rptdesign&parameter name=parameter value

You dont need to make any html or jsp file..just write the link into
browser and you will run the report.

I hope i m clear little bit more this time. But tats what i learned and i
can tell u.

run_report is used to run the reports in web browser.

Thanks Hardik for the information.
I went through the servlet exmple and found that BIRT Report output can be
redirected to HTTPServletRespose.
So that the output HTML/PDF report will be embedded in the browser.

Thanks Hardik once again for all the pointers.

Regards,
Anuradha.
