Reusable user defined libraries in Jasper?

[mardeea]

Hello,

I'm looking at migrating from Oracle Reports to Jasper Reports. Our reports have shared libraries and i was wondering if it is possible to replicate the concept in Jasper as well. However i didn't find any clear info about this (i'm a beginner when it comes both to Jasper and Java so my understanding is not the best either). Is it possible (and if it is then how?) to 'migrate' Oracle reports libraries to Jasper?

Thanks in advance

Sharing libraries is possible in Jasper by creating jar files using java code.

I have worked in the same setup and its not an easy task to convert Oracle reports to Jasper as-is.

We salvaged as much as psuedo code from Oracle reports libraries and then rewrote as Oracle objects.

You need to convert all the Program Units of pl/sql libraries to normal database objects and then write sql queries.
