Borland JBuilder embedded Crystal Report specification

Data presentation

Borland JBuilder embedded Crystal Reports simplify and accelerate the process of embedding reports in JavaServer Pages (JSP. Use it as an integral part of a J2EE application to create and present reports.

Simplified and accelerated data presentation in JSP

Instead of writing HTML manually, Borland JBuilder's embedded Crystal Report is an intuitive report toolbox that simplifies and accelerates access, formatting, and data integration in JSP. As a tightly integrated feature of JBuilder X, it is included in the products you purchased and is part of the default installation of JBuilder.

Use Borland JBuilder to build an embedded crystal report. You can:

● Use an intuitive design environment to accelerate data connection and formatting
● Minimize the repetitive work and boredom of embedding dynamic data into JSP
● Reduces application maintenance by separating data connections and presentation from core code

Easy access and data formatting

Borland JBuilder embedded Crystal Reports significantly reduce the number of HTML files that need to be manually generated. With its visual designer, developers can quickly link data and convert it into dynamic report templates. Visualized drag-and-drop data resource manager simplifies JDBC data connections. Hundreds of formatting options, including grouping, sorting, charts, formulas, parameters, cross tabulation, and deepening, can easily provide a richer end user experience on the zero client.

Minimize the repetitive work of embedding dynamic data into JSP

From within JBuilder, you can quickly add new or existing report files as resources to projects. This allows them to be managed as components of the project and deployed together with your web application. The built-in Wizard will guide you through this process, which eliminates the tedious work required to manually write similar functions.

Use the visualization designer to access and format data. Easily embed results into JSP-directly implemented in JBuilder.

Reduces the maintenance workload of the presentation layer.

Borland JBuilder embedded Crystal Reports reflect a flexible design model to separate data and presentation from core business logic. This helps accelerate content development and maintenance. With the intuitive design environment of Crystal Reports to create highly formatted content, website designers can focus on availability. This frees program developers to focus on designing and implementing business logic in the program. Because data links and presentations are not hardcoded into applications, website designers can easily modify content or add more end-user interactions without affecting core program code. This also makes business logic easier to maintain and enables applications to be more flexible when dealing with changing user needs.

Key features

● Custom report designer
Access, format, and integrate data in JSP using a visual design environment that generates a report template.

● Hundreds of thousands of Java report components
Convert a report template from the J2EE application server to a highly formatted Dynamic HTML file.
Embed powerful report processing components in your application and present dynamic data from the J2EE application server. When additional scalability or functionality is required, applications using this powerful component that is fully compatible with Business Objects report technology can be seamlessly upgraded.

● Java viewer API
Provides end users with custom report interactivity on the zero client. End users can deepen data, navigate through the link content, or print and export the content to multiple popular formats (including PDF and RTF) to reuse the content.

● Custom tag Library
Reduces the amount of code required to embed a report template in JSP.

Public standards for data presentation

As an independent standard for cross-platform reports, Crystal Reports are closely integrated into mainstream Java and. Net integrated development environments. Developers can use a common report technical standard to meet all data presentation and information delivery requirements. Existing Crystal Reports (. rpt) files can be reused in your J2EE program. You can download the batch update utility to convert your existing reports so that they can be used by the Java report component.

Scale and expand applications to support new requirements

Borland JBuilder embedded Crystal Reports and Business Objects report techniques are constructed using the same object model. When you need to develop scalability or functionality to include multi-level security, Custom reports during running, scheduling of large volumes of reports, or other enterprise-level report requirements, with minimal coding, you can upgrade your applications to take advantage of your crystal business.
