Rathan,

Nobody will see this as a quesiton.  Create a new question   Then you may get an answer.  Also, posting as an 'answer' to this question, makes it less likely that this question will get an answer - since it looks as though someone already answered it.  I've moved your 'answer'  to be a comment to clear up that part.

This is now possible using Web Service Datasource

http://community.jaspersoft.com/project/web-service-data-source

This Community project implement a Custom Datasource, built using the latest Custom Datasource framework (leveraging Data Adapters internally).

It is also working inside JasperReports Server:

You can use it to fill Query based Input Controls, as well as Ad Hoc Reporting (for Commercial version) using it through Topic.

Thanks
