Standalone Application Installation

After you have finished the installation of the standalone application with the setup tool you can:

The file Sample.java in the sample directory of the i-net Clear Reports documentation is a sample for a standalone Java application.

//At least you need to start the Listener:
static Listener reportListener = new Listener(true);
 
// and request a report in the report viewer:
// Create the connection to the report server
 
URLRenderData myConnection = new URLRenderData(reportListener.getUrlString()+
				"/?file:" + System.getProperty("user.dir") +
				'/' + reportFile.getText());
 
// Create the Report Viewer
SwingReportViewer viewer = new SwingReportViewer();
 
// Create the report view and set the connection to the report server
viewer.addNewReportView(myConnection);
 …

In this case the SwingReportViewer and the Engine of i-net Clear Reports communicate via the HTTP protocol.
If you can not use the HTTP protocol in your application then you can use the possibility to set the Engine directly with the class EngineRenderData. For more information please refer to the API documentation of the method EngineRenderData.
