[OT] Open source reporting tool in java

[Ashish Kulkarni <ku...@yahoo.com>]

Hi
I need a open source reporting tool to generate
reports in web application, basically create PDF
reports and also pie charts and graphs etc.
It should be able to create promts, and can be
integrated in web appication

I have looked into jasper and ireports, which looks
cool
Also itext and FOP but need lot of XSLT work for them
since there is no GUI tool to desing them
Any suggestions or better products

Take a look at Datavision:

http://datavision.sourceforge.net/

It's not *quite* as powerful as Jasper and some others, but it is about as
simple as can be to integrate and work with, and does have some nice
capabilities others may not (for instance, formulas use the BSF, so any
BSF-supported language can be used to write formulas).  The pie charts and
graphs, IIRC, are not built-in functions, you would probably have to play
some games to add that capability.

FYI, I wrote an article some time ago showing how to integrate it into a
webapp.  The basic idea is exactly the same in a Struts app, and I myself
have used this in two Struts apps with great success.  Here's a link to
the article if Datavision looks like a good fit for you:
