BIRT Wicket Integration
I have a wicket web app that displays a BIRT report based mostly on the
information found here:
http://java.dzone.com/articles/integrating-birt-your-wicket
http://java.dzone.com/articles/integrating-birt-your-wicket
This works OK, but it sends the report to the OutputStream and takes the
user away from the web app. I would prefer to have the BIRT report display
in a div or an iframe, but I am having trouble making it happen in wicket.
Has anyone here done something like this?
Essentially I have a page with a number of report parameters on a wicket
page and would like the report to display below these parameters. Then the
user would be able to just modify the parameters that are still visible and
re-run the report.
Any help would be appreciated.

By the way, i'm just returning html, not the pdf. I have a pdf as a separate
report option. So really I would just like to take the html version of my
report and put it in a div tag.

Yes, i was able to re-arrange my code to get to what I needed. Now I'm trying
to get it into a div or panel instead of an iframe. I tried creating a
DocumentDiv, similar to your DocumentInlineFrame and using that, but it
doesn't seem to be working. Is there a limitation on what I can send the
byte array to? Thanks for help.

Sylvia,
On the article on the dzone you have
options.setOutputStream(os);
Where os is an OutputStream. What stop you from creating a
ByteArrayOutputString and do the same as above? The you could use it
to retrieve the bytes.

I can't get the outputstream from the BIRT code to give to the getBytes
method. Thanks though. I will see if I can render the BIRT report a
different way.

Sylvia,
Isn't it enough to return PDF bytes on getData bellow?
return new ResourceState() {
@Override
public String getContentType() {
return "application/pdf";
}
@Override
public byte[] getData() {
// return PDF bytes here... e.g generate the PDF into an output
ByteArrayOutputStream and the call
// return out.toByteArray();
}
};
Best,
Ernesto

Thanks Ernesto, I did see your article. I was unable to figure out how to get
the two options to work together. In the solution I currently have, it seems
to hijack the outputstream and doesn't give you a way to re-direct it to
your DisplayResource.

Sylvia,
Maybe this link might be of some help: just combine what you have with
the approach described here...
