Customizing the generated report name

[bkrishnan82]

hi,

We are generating the report in the jasper server and the report is generated in the name of flow.html or flow.pdf. But i want to know whether can we change the name of the report generated atrun time i.e according to the name of the report generated. if can, please let me know the steps of how we can do it.

 

with regards,

Krish

Have a look at the exporter code in JasperServer. You should be able to set the name there. Please log an enhancement request for this - we should do this generally.

Hi

We applied this fix to our local version of Jasper Server Community Edition:
(It corrects the naming issue and also allows direct opening or saving of the pdf rather than opening in a browser window.

In ReportPdfExporter.java, setAdditionalResponseHeaders()

remove:

response.setHeader("Content-Disposition", "inline; filename=\"" + getFilename(context, "pdf") + "\"");

replace with:

// allow the download dialog box to open:
response.setHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename=\"" + getFilename(context, "pdf") + "\"");

// fix for opening PDF in IE6:
response.setHeader("Cache-Control", "must-revalidate, post-check=0, pre-check=0");

 

In view-report.js, exportReport()

comment out or remove these lines so that a blank html window doesn't open:

setBlankFormTarget();
setTimeout('setSelfFormTarget()', 500);
