2002 JI Open Discussion Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 By: srinivas sunkara - ssunkara How to generate reports in custom xml format? 2003-02-05 20:34 I would like to generate a report in custom xml format without any location info: for example if I have a database table product (id, name) and I want this to generate a report in the format below. Is it possible to do this with Jasper reports? If yes any details would be appreciated. <report> <product> <id> 1 </id> <name>newprod </name> </product> <product> <id>2 </id> <name>oldprod </name> </product> </report> thanks, srinivas.

Just create a simple program that iterates the products and creates the XML you need. I hope this helps. Teodor By: srinivas sunkara - ssunkara RE: How to generate reports in custom xml for 2003-02-06 09:33 Thanks for the response. I am aware of the fact that I could do it using a simple program. (The above requirements illustration is an example only.) I was looking to see if some of these report generating programs would do it so I could configurably change the tag names as needed and generate different reports from different queries. . Can I do this by writing an exporter for JasperReports? srinivas. By: Teodor Danciu - teodord RE: How to generate reports in custom xml for 2003-02-06 10:03 Hi, You could write an exporter, just like the existing JRXmlExporter. The problem is that in the .jrprint format, we don't know anymore where the data came from. So, how could you know which is the product ID? I hope this helps. Teodor By: srinivas sunkara - ssunkara RE: How to generate reports in custom xml for 2003-02-25 11:40 Can I add static text(tags) around each of the dataelements retrieved and hence can still have the tags needed in the .jrprint format ?
