GWT JasperReports Usage

[Vishnu]

Hello,



I have GWT portal. Portal has different kinds of data. I want to view
the data in jasperReport and later export to pdf,csv,text
etc..depending on the user option . I dont want to use JasperServer.



I wrote the Jasper code [compile & file Reports] method. and tried
running on GWT Development mode.

I'm getting the following errors on GWT Development mode.

No source code is available for type
net.sf.jasperreports.engine.data.JRBeanArrayDataSource; did you forget
to inherit a required module?



I'm able to compile the code but when I run then only is the problem.



Is it possible to have JasperReport on a GWT ? If yes can you guide me
with an simple examples and also settings/configurations needed.



Thanks!!

Vishnu

GWT supports only specific java classes (see http://code.google.com/intl/de-DE/webtoolkit/doc/latest/RefJreEmulation.html) so you can't use Jasper directly in client side code. 

You have to generate the PDF/Excel/etc file on your server (not JasperServer, just your GWT backend server) and tell the browser where to download/open the file once its generated.
