loadReport does not work in webapp

Teodor,

 

Hi, I'm new to the Jasper Reports.

It looks pretty interesting although I'm not sure it works too well in a j2ee webapp environment (correct me if I'm wrong).

 

jasperReport = JasperManager.loadReport(fileName);

 

It seems that the loadReport method does not accept reading the file from a webapp. Would it be possible to overload this method to accept an InputStream and allow getResourceAsStream() to get the file from within the webapp.

 

 

public java.io.InputStream getResourceAsStream(java.lang.String path)

Hi,

 

I think you are right.

 

Working with streams would be more appropriate.

I'm currently studying this possibility.

 

Thanks,

Teodor

Hi Teodor,

 

I just modified the Jasper source to incorporate streams for loadReport to work in webapp (I'm still working on other problems). Do you want me to send you the modifications? Where?
