Have anybody ever try to use JasperReports and iReports with CCS (2.2.3.60) ?
I can do reports and preview them with iReports but which/where do I put all jar files and reports files in Tomcat4?
And, how I can call them in CCS?
I think, it is possible to create some JSP pages and use them to view reports, but how.
Some samples are welcome.

I use JasperReport e iReport with CCS.
I make a common servlet of JasperReport and them CCS send the parameters, the servlet has a own package and just need to configure on the context of the application.
To call them in CCS are normal, it's a servlet, so change a action in a form.

After my customer review, I take a different slant on this. Customers did not want to have 'Open Reports' as an additional application and wanted the criteria, of what they searched for, to be displayed.
Personally, I really like the 'Open Reports' application because it leaves reporting as a seperate modual for users to create their own additional reports. Users do not want to learn new things so bang goes that idea!!!!
See:
http://www.tvfilmlibrary.com/libmgr/PrintDialogPopup.js...recordingsfound
My use of Jasper Reports is embeded directly into my application and will:
1. Use the caller URL parameters
.. Lookup description of parameter against database table rules
... Uses dabase held SQL statement to find FK descriptions
2. Passes the URL parameters directly into Jasper Reports
.. What it finds in the URL is what it sends in, subject to the parameter being allocated in the report parameter table allocated against the report
3. Displays the parameter order according to SQL against database of known paramers
4. Adds initial URL parameters into the reports list of parameters in case you forget and for ease of initial entry
5. Compiles the report 'on the fly' if the .jasper report file is out of date
Basically, I can ignore excess URL parameters (e.g. ...&cust_id=1234&dont_need_this=5678) and translates the ones I do want (cust_id=1234) via SQL stored in my report parameter tables. So the end result for the report is the customer name text.
The report name, passed as a url parameter, is also translated into a description in the same way.
The only functionality I am missing is control of the sort order of the report to match the sort order selected in the CCS table list used to fire off the report. This is easy to do but difficult to make 100% error free and robust. This is because you can not be 100% certain that the 'order by' clause will be accepted by your database when you actually submit the SQL.
Contact me via email in report dialog - if you want, or call me via skype as 'javacertified', see http://www.skype.com.

My parameter to JasperReport was the jasper file (test.jasper) and all the parameter I need, and type of all parameter.
In form I change the action to the servlet that creates the Report.
I just cannot made that a parameter be optional. All the parameter is required.
CCS doesn't make so much in this case, it's a simple servlet call.

Now JasperReport runs with Tomcat4 ok.
But still don’t know how to use parameters in JasperReports? From CCS I send URL parameters http://<server>/jasper/EVENTS_report.do?EVENT_ID=123@CUST_ID=456.. and so on. How Jasper receives those parameters and use them to produce report?

All the parameter that you need, put in a Hashmap, in his own type, if is float must be in Hashmap in float.
JasperPrint impress = JasperManager.fillReport(report, map, con);
get a jasperprint with a fillReport that have parameters:
report = JasperReport with the name of the jasper file.
map = Hashmap with the parameter. (name, value).
con = connection with the database.
Then export to the kind of report needed.

Can you share CCS and Jasper code to send and receive parameters between two servlets?

To send parameter just call in the form the servlet that manage the JasperReport.
In CCS i just change the action of the form to the servlet, and then the servlet makes everything.
