I thought the BO xi 3.1 r2 sp5.3 should allow java 1.7 to be used? Sent from my iPhone

Of those it appears most are old and or have security issues - old java:: business objects xi 3.1 crystal reports 2011 -- Requires 2008 Max 32 bit only, and is old and some newer JAVA versions do not run with it (which makes it insecure) and at some places they will not allow it to run - due to security risk (it is really old) Analytics: while the 7.6.04 version and 8.0 version can be installed you can only us certain versions of JAVA and some of those are EOL -- or you pay for extended support. you cannot run dynamic reports either, from the mid-tier it is a on demand version (login to web client or login to server and use thick client). You can email and post to sharepoint on a timed basis. Birt is using version 2.5 (but newer versions 4.5? I think is out) but BMC is only compatible with 2.5 Adhoc: yup just a bunch of data points. BMC : appears weak for either integration or continued reporting with models that are forward looking and security conscience. CR 2013 is out but cannot use it. Am I incorrect in some of these observations? Could someone tell me that CR 3.1 is passing their NESSUS scans and JAVA can be 1.7.X or 1.8.X ? How about CR 2013 server -- is there any future that BMC will allow reporting from this? How are people handling the WEB and press a button to get reports? Birt?
