Hi aswath
thanks. I can now generate the reports using servlet and setting the
mimetype.But I still got a problem with getting parameters using
request.getParameter("attributename")
My service definition is as below
<service name="crmsfa.reportServlet" engine="java"
location="com.path.to.ReportServices" invoke="reportServlet">
<description>Views a report </description>
<attribute name="reportType" type="String" mode="IN"
optional="false"/>
<attribute name="dateFrom" type="String" mode="IN"
optional="false"/>
<attribute name="dateTo" type="String" mode="IN" optional="false"/>
<attribute name="request"
type="javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest" mode="IN" optional="false"/>
<attribute name="response"
type="javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse" mode="OUT" optional="false"/>
</service>
Following is part of my servlet code trying to access the date parameters.
reportType=(String)request.getParameter("reportType");
dateTo=(String) request.getParameter("dateTo");
dateFrom=(String) request.getParameter("dateFrom");
My problem is getting the value of parameters dateTo and dateFrom
which are being defined in my entry form as below
field name="dateFrom" title="From Date">
<date-time type="timestamp" input-method="time-dropdown" />
</field>
<field name="dateTo" title="To Date">
<date-time type="timestamp" input-method="time-dropdown" />
</field>
with regards and Thanks
