minimal integration in web application

dsusca

Hi

I have a web application for which I have a reporting facility. I use struts and jsp to retrieve the parameters that the user gives to generate the report, and I wish to display (or offer for download) the report already-exported to whatever format the user chose.
Practically I do not want to go through the Viewer at all. Do I still need to add it to my project?

Or is it enough to add several libraries from which I will call something like
generateReport(designFile, parameters, exportformat) which would return an OutputStream ?
