Hi,
What about a set of commons-digester rules?
I am in vaporware stage on a project which will need a reporting
system, but not the typical simple reporting like "here's a table,
format it nicely", but some powerful reporting with several data
detail levels, linked back and forth, with graphs of many different
types (including some not yet supported by jfreechart).
So I am thinking of:
- Extending jfreechart to support one or more additional graph types
(e.g. gauge)
- Using it directly (or extending a reporting product that integrates
it, if possible) so that I can create reports (at least HTML and PDF
output formats needed)
Any hints on that?

Hi Antonio
Are you aware of xReporter http://cocoondev.org/xreporter/index.html?
Out of the box this is likely to handle your report linking requirements and
will output reports in HTML, PDF, Excel, or CSV formats.
>From memory there has been some discussion of FINS integration on the xReporter
mailing list, you might want to take a look at the archives.
Cheers
Adam

Hello Antonio!
Some time ago, I looked at expanding the Fins wrapper. This is not that
difficult, as you only need to add some logic in the main renderer selector
method within Fins, along with defining your own markup for the data sets.
Merely using new chart types, using the same base-data markup, would be
quite easy.
Other than that, I'm using Fins for a data warehouse application and it's
working great, apart from the Fins serializer being quite CPU-intensive. I
don't how to optimize the serialization, any ideas here?
Best regards,
Ulf Sahlin
