As far as Netbeans 4.1 and JasperReports, Certainly. The other elements you mention are unknown to me. But if they both run in the same enviroment as you are running netbeans, it should work fine.

Look at the tutorial at: http://jasperreports.sourceforge.net/tutorial/index.html

 

jasperreport-1.1.1-applet.jar does not have a main class.

 

Try to dig in deeper in the documentation.

Ive also encountered the same problem, when i try opening the file.

 

I've even try to redownload the two files, because i thought their is something wrong with my download. But when i try opening it again..still the same problem i encounter.

I've already found a solution to our problem:

 

The error means that this jar file(jasperreport-1.1.1-applet.jar) is not an application. Since on Window platform you can create a jar file and allow it to be launched by double-click on it by specifying the "Main-Class" attribute in the Manifest file.

 

This jar file is just a regular jar file, technically it is a zip file since it uses the same compression method. You can use a WinZip utility on Window to open and extract it or using the jar command to extract its content.

 

To extract the content of the jar file by using the Java's jar command type the following at the command prompt(Make sure your PATH contains the path to you Java JDK):

 

jar xvf jasperreport-1.1.1-applet.jar
