Well I guess your client calls the report to get filled on the server isn't it? So you have to transfer the JRPrint-Object back to the client and the client should make a new instance of JasperViewer.... I don't really know where the problem is!?!?

 

(I talk of a J2EE application where the reports are produced on application server JBoss and send back to the client where it's shown with the JasperViewer. I don't know what architecture you are using)

hey c-box thanks for your time. but what exactly do you mean by "you have to transfer the JRPrint-Object back to the client and the client should make a new instance of JasperViewer"...?

 

am using struts-framework..in windows..but i will be migrating this one to linux eventually..the problem is if i try to connect to a server form another pc, the jasperviewer frame/dialog pops up on the server's screen and not on the pc i am using (client).. is there something im missing??? Here's the java source:

 

JasperReport jasperReport = JasperCompileManager.compileReport(formDir + JrxmlName);

 

Map parameters = new HashMap();

parameters.put("ReportTitle", "TotalTable");

 

JasperPrint jasperPrint = JasperFillManager.fillReport(jasperReport, parameters, conn);

 

JRXlsExporter exporter = new JRXlsExporter();

exporter.setParameter(JRExporterParameter.OUTPUT_FILE_NAME,

xlsRealPath + "\TotalTable.xls");

exporter.setParameter(JRExporterParameter.JASPER_PRINT,jasperPrint);

exporter.setParameter(JRXlsExporterParameter.IS_ONE_PAGE_PER_SHEET, Boolean.TRUE);

exporter.exportReport();

 

JasperViewer.viewReport(jasperPrint,false);

 

 

again, thanks for your time.

I don't know what struts are.... we are using a J2EE Application Server (JBoss) and the clients log in via IIOP-Protocol and call the public session-bean methods that the server offers... so the client for examples makes a call like this...

 

JasperPrint jrPrint = PrintCtrl.getPrintObject(reportID);

 

and then the application-server produces the JRPrint-Object via the fill-method and returns it back to the client.

 

and the client shows the JasperViewer.... but I guess your struts-framework has another architecture.. but unfortunately I don't know it.

 

sorry, perhaps anybody else could help you
