Cannot list ReportUnit?

[kcc87]

Hi there,

 

I have been working on a application that runs on WAS 6.0 and which then consumes the JI 1.1 web services. However i meet with some problems that isn't very logical to me.

 

1.) Somehow I can never list the TYPE_REPORTUNIT out. But however, when it comes to TYPE_FOLDER, it work perfectly. What can be the reasons here??

 

Below are the codes that i have written:

 

MyJIClient jiClient = new MyJIClient("http://localhost:8080/jasperserver/services/repository", "jasperadmin", "ihis");

 

ResourceDescriptor rd = new ResourceDescriptor();

 

List arg = new ArrayList();

 

arg = jiClient.list("/reports/Assignment4", ResourceDescriptor.TYPE_REPORTUNIT);

//The list method here is link to the MyJIClient class

//which just accept the Uri and a String as the TYPE.

 

arg.size()

//But somehow the arg.size() always return 0, which means nothing is found.

 

2.) My reports are mostly in Chinese, although i have no problem seeing my report but, all the words are in "????" are there any settings or things i can do to solve this problem?

 

 

Please help me! I have been trying to solve this 2 problem for around 1 week plus..

After many trial and error, i found out one thing, that ResourceDescriptor.TYPE_FOLDER is can be used to list out everything under the URI, it does not necessary means listing out only Type = folder. And ResourceDescriptor.TYPE_REPORTUNIT can only be used on report unit. Meaning that lets say you have a report unit called jasper1, which is under reports and you wish to list out everthing that is in jasper 1 then you can use -> ResourceDescriptor.TYPE_REPORTUNIT and it will work. But by using ResourceDescriptor.TYPE_REPORTUNIT with the uri of /reports only, then it will always return nothing.
