[Xmm-devel] Report connection

[Stefan A. <rip...@gm...>]

Hi,

I'm trying to figure out how to include reports in med. I see in the 
reports folder a .jasper, .jrxml, and .png set of files corresponding (I 
assume) to the compiled report, designer file and example graphic for 
med. I'm also assuming that ireport was used to create these reports as 
I've been able to load both the .jasper and .jrxml files in ireport.

My question is this: how and where does ireport connect to the med 
database? The field names and their definitions must somehow be 
communicated for the report to work. ireport uses an .xml file for 
datasource definitions and I'm attaching one for your reference. It has 
definitions for an empty db, an XML, a CSV and an XLS. The closest thing 
I could find in med is Castor-mapping.xml but that doesn't work in ireport.

At this point I've created a number of reports but none work in med. The 
report appears in the med report list window but once selected the 
generation window progress bar goes nowhere and I have to abort.
