programmatically fill dataset of chart

I'm trying to build a report with a chart using a dataset, that can be filled dynamically (calculated data). I’ve tried to use the scripted datasource, but it is not possible to set the data while runtime. I need to set it after I made some calculations, so I also cannot read it from any database.

After creation it has to be exported into PDF format.
Is that possible?

Has anybody an idea how to do this?

Thanks for help!

Hi Bibi,

Can you explain your data some more? What are the calculations you need to make?

I work with some double-values, for example working time recordings, budget entries, salaries... I get a few thousand result set to go through to get these values. So it's definitely not possible to calculate this by a simple sql statement.

Do you have any idea what I can do?

Maybe it could help, that I put the data in some table handles first, can use that for the chart?

Thanks a lot,
Bibi

Bibi,

Based off of what you've said so far, I would think a scripted dataSource would work for you. You may want to use a java class as the source rather than just javascript if this is what you were trying. If this still doesn't work for you, can you explain the limitations of the scripted dataSource that you see that won't allow for you to use it? Thanks.
