Rendering report in Swing app [message #159191] Mon, 08 May 2006 22:08 Go to next message

Hi,

I'm evaluating BIRT and am curious how one can render a report in a
non-Web enabled Swing app without having to utilize a web based report
viewer. I would like to render the report in a JPanel if possible. Can
this be done without much difficulty?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Jon,
I am doing this. The only way, that I know of, is to create a PDF
and show the pdf via a PDF viewer or a browser.

Hi Mark,

Thanks for the response. I was hoping not to have to do that, but perhaps
that is the only way. I'm also evaluating JasperReports, and am leaning
toward BIRT. As far as I can tell, my only problem with BIRT is the
report rendering for my scenario.

Were you able to provide user interaction with the report, i.e. triggers,
or was this a static report, viewable only?

View only. It was a pdf.

Anything else will require a browser and interaction with a web server.

Or you will have to duplicate the HTML functionality in Swing.
