Jasper Report with Flash Viewer

Friday, February 20th, 2009

Showing report that renders well and commands printer well is a difficult task in webbased applications. We do not have strong api to control printer with javascript nor does java script apis such as extjs and dojo talks about this thing we can control some layout thing with css but could not control things like page wise navigation and zoom/ chart thingsWe have been using Custom applet to show jasper report in web based application. The disadvantage with applet is that the client machine needs to have jre installed and the dependency jar of the applet( jasper report runtime ) is more than 3 M.BLast week i came across a project http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?forum_id=830690  . Good idea i downloaded the source and had a small minor changes and built a SwF file which was less than 500 KB. The swf file can render well the xml exported from jasper report system here is how it looked like (sorry about the font PCS nepali )

if you try to transfer data from different server to a flash (SWF) then don’t forget to name the file crossdomain.xml so no pf.xml

Accidently Flash used for Dos attack for self

We made a flash application the queries server for a xml file repeately in a gap of 5 second .
We deployed the application for 2 major portals of nepal.

After one hour the httpd server (apache) failed to response
it was due to the continous requests made by the application

later on we sloved it by cross domain data transfer and moved the host server to some where else
