Report design and XML

2004-03-23 08:47

Hallo,

 

I hope that someone can answer the question.

 

I read on http://jasperreports.sourceforge.net that

A report design is represented by an XML file that

has the structure defined in the jasperreport.dtd file.

 

Where can I find complete documentation about the XML syntax that I can use to create a report ?

Does anyone know if the ebook The JasperReports Ultimate Guide contains this information ?

 

Thank you very much for your answers.

well, actually the DTD describes the syntax to use for creating the report. the ebook is well worth buying and explains quite everything more detailed.

The site that you listed contains a lot of information to get you on your way. There is a tutorial, a quick reference, and a few other things.

 

Also, you can simply download the source if you want to see any of the details, including the DTD (although, I don't think you'll need to see it after you've read the documentation)
