source from text file

2002-03-20 11:34

I am wondering if the report can be generated reading from a text file, the file generated by Log4J, for example. I know a lot of java apps use Log4J and it will be nice to generate a report from these log files to weed out the exceptions etc.

Hi,

 

This is possible.

The only thing you have to do is to implement

a JRDataSource object that knows how to interpret

the data in those files.

You then supply this data source object to the

report filling routines and reports will be

generated from it.

 

Thanks,

Teodor
