Exadel and Actuate Webinar on JSF + RichFaces + BIRT
Posted by Charley Cowens on February 5, 2010 06:10 pm under Education, Events, Products
It’s coming up soon! On Tuesday of next week on February 9, Exadel and Actuate will be doing a joint webcast titled Learn How to Add BIRT Reporting to JSF Applications Using RichFaces. There’s still time to register.
In the webcast, we’ll start with some company and technical background leading up to a demo of jsf4birt. The jsf4birt component library supports the rendering of BIRT-based reports on a page within JavaServer Faces (JSF) Web applications. Report viewers implemented as JSF components can be easily adjusted through tag attributes.
There are two components. A BIRT wrapper and an Actuate wrapper.
The BIRT wrapper component displays BIRT reports created in BIRT’s Eclipse design tool. This component uses the BIRT runtime API. The component calls the appropriate part of the API from the BIRT runtime to get generated HTML code to put on the page. Everything is done on the server side following the usual JSF lifecycle processing.
The Actuate wrapper component loads reports from an installed Actuate server. The component uses the Actuate JavaScript API to load and run reports on the page using client-side processing.
[…] webcast with Actuate to show the jsf4birt JSF component library went quite well despite a couple […]
Good job! The component makes it easy to embed birt report to richfaces panel.
My question: Is it possible to make birt viewer as a jsf component?
My issue: The report style changed after ajax update. For example, the font of the label was bold, but it bacames plain after rerendering for the text or the number changes. Any solution?
Thanks,

It have been impossible for me to embed a report into a richfaces panel, I already have the jsf4birt jar and I have never seen the report instead I saw a stacktrace error due to facelets!!
