Installing the Catalog Bean

When you install JReport Designer, which by default is located in C:\JReport\Designer, JReport Catalog Bean is also installed at the same time. After installation, you will have the main components in <install_root> as below:

• lib\JREngine.jar*
  Class library that contains the Catalog Bean.
• lib\log4j-1.2.8.jar*
  Jar file used for the JReport Engine logging system.
• bin\jslc.dat*
  License control file.
• bin\report.ini*
  Configuration file.
• help\designer\samples\TestCatalogBean.java
  The test tool of the Catalog Bean with a graphics user interface.

JReport Catalog Bean is combined with JReport Engine Bean and is stored in the same class library called JREngine.jar. You will need to set the class path environment variable before you can compile and run the program. Append the following string to the class path:

<install_root>/lib/JREngine.jar;<install_root>/lib/log4j-1.2.8.jar
