differences when PDF exporting with PHP

2003-12-01 01:34

Hi,

 

i use jasperreport to generate PDF over our DATABASES. I want to use it in our PHP web site.

 

It works fine when i generate it with JAVA. But when i call the same method trough the PHP i hav some differences like :

- EMPTY FIELDS

- SOME LINES ARE NOT AS WELL ALIGNED

 

Is there anything to do to avoid that ?

 

I have a couple of PDF, one generated in pure JAVA and the other generated through PHP, but using the SAME METHOD. They have different size and contents (some of them).

 

You should see this method above:

<code>

import dori.jasper.engine.*;

import dori.jasper.view.*;

import it.businesslogic.ireport.connection.*;

import it.businesslogic.ireport.*;

import java.util.*;

import java.lang.*;

 

public class PHPJRConnector

{

private HashMap parametres;

public PHPJRConnector(){

this.parametres = new HashMap();

}

public String run(String srcFileName, String dstFileName)

{

try {

dori.jasper.engine.JasperPrint print=null;

dori.jasper.engine.JRExporter exporter=null;

maConnection.setJDBCDriver("com.mysql.jdbc.Driver");

maConnection.setUrl("jdbc:mysql://myServer/myDatabase");

//maConnection.setDatabase("deptest");

maConnection.setUsername("myUser");

maConnection.setPassword("myPass");

 

////////////////////////////////////////////////

//System.out.print(srcFileName);

//dori.jasper.engine.JasperReport report = dori.jasper.engine.JasperManager.loadReport(srcFileName);

print = dori.jasper.engine.JasperFillManager.fillReport(

srcFileName,

this.getParametres(),

maConnection.getConnection());

 

exporter = new dori.jasper.engine.export.JRPdfExporter();

exporter.setParameter(

JRExporterParameter.OUTPUT_FILE_NAME,dstFileName);

exporter.setParameter(

JRExporterParameter.JASPER_PRINT,print);

exporter.exportReport();

 

return "YES";

} catch (Exception ex)

{

return "ERREUR!";

}

}

 

public void addParametre(String nom,String valeur){

//System.out.print(nom+" "+valeur+" "+this.parametres);

this.parametres.put(nom,valeur);

}

public HashMap getParametres(){

return parametres;

}

 

public void modifieXML(String srcFileName, String dstFileName){

HashMap m = this.getParametres();

 

Report rapport = new Report(srcFileName);

Vector v = new Vector();

 

 

// Modifier des paramè´²es existants

 

v = rapport.getParameters();

Enumeration enum = v.elements();

while (enum.hasMoreElements())

{

it.businesslogic.ireport.JRParameter p = (it.businesslogic.ireport.JRParameter)enum.nextElement();

if (m.containsKey(p.getName().toString()))

p.setDefaultValueExpression(m.get(p.getName()).toString());

}

rapport.setParameters(v);

rapport.saveXMLFile(dstFileName);

}

 

public void compileXML(String srcXML,String dstJASPER){

JasperCompileManager compilateur = new JasperCompileManager();

try{

compilateur.compileReportToFile(srcXML,

dstJASPER);

System.out.print(" OK :-)");

}catch (JRException jrex){

System.out.print("ERREURS de compilation :-(");

}

}

}

</code>
