Birt Engine Embeded in Swing Application on JWS
<p>Hi,</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Sorry if it was already asked but my searchs doesn't bring back any thread that answer to my questions.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I would like to generate some reports with parameters using Birt on a Swing java application deployed with Java Web Start.</p>
<p>The problems are:</p>
<p>- I can't (and would'nt) install the Birt engine on each computer</p>
<p>- I can't use any server (birt viewer or other).</p>
<p>- My users doesn't have Birt installed on their computer.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Is it possible to configure my application to use the birt engine which will be deployed using JWS or more clearly, is it possible to embed Birt Engine in a completely standalone swing java application and make this application generate reports in Excel and PDF ?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Once generated the user can open itself the report using Excel or Acrobat reader, so I don't need a viewer, just the engine to generate reports.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Is there a simple java project (example) to show which JAR file should I need to run from JWS and how to configure my project to use the embeded Runtime Engine ?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I don't find any information or tutorial about making this kind of configuration.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Thanks</p>

<p>Like this DevShare?</p>
<p><a data-ipb='nomediaparse' href='http://developer.actuate.com/community/forum/index.php?/files/file/448-birt-report-from-java-swing/'>http://developer.actuate.com/community/forum/index.php?/files/file/448-birt-report-from-java-swing/</a></p>
Warning No formatter is installed for the format ipb0 -
<p>Unfortunately, no !</p>
<p>This is approximately the same example I find everywhere in which I should define the path where Birt was installed, but in my case I would not like to install BIRT, I would like to embed it inside my Swing application.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>May be should I ask:</p>
<p>Which library from ReportEngine should I put in a java swing project to ONLY generate report (not to view it) and WITHOUT installing Birt or BirtEngine, and WITHOUT using Birt in a WebServer (Tomcat).</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I would like my application totaly independant from any Birt installation or any Birt Server so I will include all libs from Birt which are needed in my project but only what I need to keep the project a small as possible.</p>
<p>Is it impossible to do it ?</p>
<p>Should I absolutely install Birt on each computer or use a webServer ?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>For the moment I only need to generate Excel (xls, xlsx), Calc (ods) and PDF files.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Thank's a lot for your answers.</p>
