Crystal Reports and SEAM

[nsaraf]

Hello,

We are migrating an existing two-tier application to a web-based application using the SEAM framework.  This application has a number of Crystal Reports that need to be accessible via the web-based interface.

I am trying to integrate Crystal Reports and SEAM. The Crystal Reports Developer guide has excellent instructions on JSP and Crystal Reports integration.  However, the only useful information I have found on JSF and Crystal Reports is on another topic on this forum - http://seamframework.org/Community/SeamAndCrystalReportsJSFTags

I followed all the instructions on this post. I draw up a blank webpage.  No errors are thrown. Any help would be appreciated.

Here's the relevant code from the ReportBean:

IReportSourceFactory2 rptSrcFactory = (IReportSourceFactory2) new JPEReportSourceFactory();
                try {
                                this.reportSource = (IReportSource) rptSrcFactory
                                        .createReportSource(report, l);
                } catch (ReportSDKException e) {
                       
                        e.printStackTrace();
                }

Here's the xhtml page:

                      "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

        </ui:define>
</ui:composition>
