  • Generate new entity ($ seam new-entity). I named it SampleReport.
  • [OPTIONAL] Include Seam project into your IDE. Eclipse Users: Add the project

into Eclipse using File > New > Project and select General > Project (not Java Project). NetBeans Users: Open the project in NetBeans.

Get started with BIRT

  • Copy dir (include subdirs) from $BIRT_RUNTIME/WebViewerExample/WEB-INF/platform to $PROJECT/resources/WEB-INF/platform
cp -r $BIRT_RUNTIME/WebViewerExample/WEB-INF/platform $PROJECT/resources/WEB-INF/platform

Integrate

Change project defaults

  • Change ant script $PROJECT/build.xml
    • Add property
<property name="birt.platform.dir" value="resources/WEB-INF/platform" />
    • Change war target:
...
<target name="war" depends="compile" description="Build the distribution .war file">             
...
    <copy todir="${war.dir}/WEB-INF/lib">

build.xml all in one: Seam (BIRT) Recipe - $PROJECT/build.xml

Code Seam-BIRT servlet

  • Make two new classes in the project (e.g. in $PROJECT/src/action dir)
package org.jboss.seam.pdf.birt;

	/**
	 * Destruction of the servlet. 
 
	 */
	public void destroy() {
	 super.destroy();

}
  • Add BIRT pdf servlet to $PROJECT/resources/WEB-INF/web.xml .
....
  <!--  BIRT PDF servlet -->
   <servlet>
        <servlet-name>Document Store Servlet</servlet-name>
        <servlet-class>org.jboss.seam.pdf.birt.DocumentStoreServlet</servlet-class>
    </servlet>

        <servlet-name>Document Store Servlet</servlet-name>
        <url-pattern>*.pdf</url-pattern>
    </servlet-mapping>
...

Make BIRT report

  • make $PROJECT/view/sample.xhtml report (rptdesign)

Instantiate Seam component by

...
            <method name="open"><![CDATA[var reports = Packages.org.jboss.seam.Component.getInstance("sampleReportList", true);
            reportsIterator = reports.getResultList().listIterator();]]></method>
...

sample.xhtml all in one: Seam (BIRT) Recipe - Sample Report

    • Add create report button to $PROJECT/view/sampleReportList.xhtml
...
<div class="actionButtons">
        <s:button id="done" 
               value="Create sampleReport"
                view="/sampleReport.xhtml"/>	
        <s:button id="report" value="Report" view="/sample.pdf?ReportName=report.rptdesign" />		  
</div>
...

Bon appetit

  • Run ant explode, start jBoss app. server
  • Cook in oven about 40 minutes & visit restaurant :-)
