Using JSPs to print report sets

JReport Enterprise Server provides the following demo JSPs which enable you to print a report set without any view in the client side, and they are contained in the zip file printDemo.jsp.zip in <install_root>\help\server\en\samples.

• printDemo.jsp
  Provides frames to load printCustomerlist.jsp and printReport.jsp.
• printCustomerlist.jsp
  Shows how to set parameters for printing the demo report set CustomerAnalysis.cls by using the ViewerApplet. This JSP calls printReport.jsp. If you want to print the other report sets, you can follow this JSP file as an example to write your own JSP. In your own JSP, you should modify the values of "cat" and "rptName".

  String cat = "/SampleReports/SampleReports.cat"; //request.getParameter(APIConst.TAG_CATALOG);
String rptName = "/SampleReports/CustomerAnalysis.cls"; //request.getParameter(APIConst.TAG_REPORT);

• printReport.jsp
  Shows how to print report sets by using the ViewerApplet. The example JSP printCustomerlist.jsp calls this JSP.

Before running the JSPs, you should unzip and copy them to <intall_root>\public_html\jinfonet. Then, start JReport Enterprise Server and access printDemo.jsp using the URL http://localhost:8888/jinfonet/printDemo.jsp. The following page appears:

PrintInCurrentFrame

Set to call printReport.jsp and load applet of JReport Viewer Frame.

PrintInHiddenFrame

Set to call printReport.jsp without loading applet of JReport Viewer Frame.

Reset the previous options.
