Integration with JasperServer

To integrate Aspose.CAD for Python with JasperServer, it is necessary to take several additional steps and update the JasperServer config files. This article explains how.

Add new exporter properties to the %INTALL_DIR%\apache-tomcat\webapps\jasperserver\WEB-INF\flows\viewReportBeans.xml config file.

        <property name="exportParameters" ref="wmfExportParameters"/>
        <property name="currentExporter" ref="reportASWmfExporter"/>
    </bean>

To change the mode of the export use property with name “exportMode” and put the value according to the desired mode. For example:

    <property name="exportMode">
        <value type="com.aspose.cad.pythons.common.ExportMode">SinglePage</value>
    </property>

You can change the value of the property to Batch, SinglePage or Multipage using com.aspose.cad.pythons.common.ExportMode enum type.

Locate the <util:map id=“exporterConfigMap”> element in the %INTALL_DIR%\apache-tomcat\webapps\jasperserver\WEB-INF\flows\viewReportBeans.xml file and add the following lines:

    <util:map id="exporterConfigMap">

Restart Pythons Server and open any report to view. If the previous steps were performed properly, you will see additional choices in the list of export formats.

If you do not see additional formats (icons or choices), please check log files in \apache-tomcat\logs directory.
