ok, I think I'll follow the action + reader path. Do I have to implement a custom reader ?
I never want the PDF to exist as a file, I want to generate it and deliver it on the fly. I'll give back any code I write. thanks Ricardo -----Original Message----- From: Vadim Gritsenko [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: sexta-feira, 7 de Junho de 2002 14:30 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: pdf output from java code > From: Ricardo Trindade [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > > Hi, > > I'm using JasperReports, which generates PDF and other reports from XML > descriptions. > I'm able to run it inside cocoon, to produce reports that I save to > files. > However I want to display them on-line. > > My general question is, I want to run java code inside a XSP, but > instead > of returning XML, that code generates binary info that I want to stream to > the browser. > > Is XSP the way to go ? No. XSP must generate XML. You could generate XHTML with link to required PDF or do a redirect with META or Javascript. Better way will be to code an action, and have map:read nested into it which will serve generated file.
