    public class JFreeReportComponent
extends AbstractJFreeReportComponent
    The JFreeReportComponent provides a simple-to-use frontend for the reporting process.

    This component will execute JFreeReport reports in one of two different modes:

    sqlMode = true

    This means that the JFreeReport component is expected to execute an SQL query, wrap the resulting SQL Resultset in a TableModel, and use that to execute a report whose definition is in the file system. In this mode, the action-sequence definition must contain the following elements: In the resource-definition section, there must be a resource called "report-definition" which defines the location of the jfreereport xml document.

    In the component-definition sction, there must be the following entries:

    • A "query" parameter which contains an SQL query.
    • Either for connecting to the SQL datasource:
      • A "jndi" parameter (with the jndi name of the datasource)
      • or The database parameters "driver", "user-id", "password" and "connection" so that a database connection can be established for running the afore-mentioned "query".

    sqlMode = false

    This means that the JFreeReport component is expected to execute a report that exists in a .jar file (like the reporting demo reports) along with the TableModel class that provides the data for the report. In this mode, the action-sequence definition must contain the following elements: In the resource-definition section, there must be a resource called "report-jar" that points to the .jar file that contains the report .xml file, and the TableModel implementation.

    In the component-definition section, there must be two entries:

    • "report-location" - This is the location of the report .xml document (e.g. org/jfree/report/demo/report1.xml)
    • "class-location" - This is the package-qualified class that implements TableModel (e.g. org.jfree.report.demo.SampleData1).
