BOReport

Use the Documentation: BOReport Package

Use the Documentation: BOReport Class

Use BOReport To Open a Session

Use BOReport To Reuse a Session

Recap: Creating a Session

You need a BOReport objectSecurity requires the following information: Username Password CMS name Authentication type

Open the session with

initSession(…)

You get a session ID in return

Recap: Reusing a Session

You need a BOReport object

You can reuse a session createdin a completely different JVM

This is a very simple way to usesingle sign-on scenarios Create a simple web application A link points to InfoView for

“Power Users” A simple JSP in front of InfoView

recycles the session using

useSession(sessionId)

getCESession()

Step 3 Set Prompts

BOReportHandler

Use BOReportHandler To Open a Document

Recap: Opening a Document

You need a BOReportHandler object

Instantiate it with

new BOReportHandler(boReport)

To open a document, use

getStorageToken(…)

A storage token is a handle to a document

Step 3 Set Prompts

Topics

BOReportHandler

Use BOReportHandler To Work with Documents

Use BOReportHandler To Set Prompts

Use BOPromptHolder For Special Prompts

Recap: Setting Prompts

You again need the BOReportHandler Object

You also need a BOPromptHolder

For special Prompts see Javadocof BOPromptHolder

To set the prompts, use

setPrompts(storageToken, prompts)

A new storage token is returned

Step 3 Set Prompts

Step 4 Get PDF

Topics

BOReportViewer

Use BOReportViewerPDF to get a PDF

Recap: Getting a Report in PDF

You need a BOReportViewerPDF Object

Instantiate it with

new BOReportViewerPDF(boReport)

To get a document in PDF, use

getDocumentPDF(storageToken)

Step 3 Set Prompts

Step 4 Get PDF

Topics

BOReportScheduler

Use BOReportSchedulerSMTP for Mail Schedules

Use BOReportSchedulerSMTP.Metadata

Use BOReportSchedulerHelper.Metadata

Recap: Scheduling a Report To SMTP

You need a BOReportSchedulerSMTP object

Instantiate it with

new BOReportSchedulerSMTP(boReport)

Use metadata to specify what to do

To schedule, use

scheduleReport(storageToken, metadata)

Step 3 Set Prompts

Step 4 Get PDF

Topics

Use Tools – ProgramObject as Template

Recap: Scheduling a Program Object

You use Tools – ProgramObject as template

Run it from the command line for testing

Schedule it to the enterprise system

Runs with the credentials of the userfor whom it was scheduled

You automatically have Parameters from properties file Command line parameters All SDK objects

Anything you can program with BOInterface, you can schedule

Step 3 Set Prompts

Step 4 Get PDF
