This class is a layer between a DBMS or any other data source and i-net Clear Reports. It compensate the differences
between the different DBMS. This class is the default implementation and should work with any SQL99 compatible database.
The major information are:
Additionally this class provides a method which is called to fetch the data from the database. This method is called when the report engine is executed and fetches the data for both, the main report and all its sub-reports. You may override this method and use engine.setData() if you want to fetch the report data yourself.
Fetching data for sub-reports is more complicated. Each sub-report is a complete report in its own right and thus consumes one connection to the database. Also a sub-report may be called more than once for each main report. For a given main report a sub-report must be re-executed and its report data must be fetched again if it is called with different set of parameters. This means that the database connection for a sub-report cannot be closed immediately, instead it will be closed after the main report has finished executing.
In the i-net Clear Reports configuration the maximum of connections is set to 5 (MaxConnections=5). If your main report consumes one connection then your sub-reports can only consume
If you override the method getReportData(), you could specify if the method getReportData() should be called whenever the set of parameters changes for the sub-report or only once. You do this by overriding the method getReportDataPerInstance() to return true.
- whether a JDBC driver is used to fetch the data or if you want to set the data directly via engine.setData() or engine.setResultSet()
- whether or not the data must be fetched for every instance of the sub-report on only once
- the string that this database uses to represent a boolean
Additionally this class provides a method which is called to fetch the data from the database. This method is called when the report engine is executed and fetches the data for both, the main report and all its sub-reports. You may override this method and use engine.setData() if you want to fetch the report data yourself.
We first describe how data for the main report is fetched:
- We check which DataSourceConfiguration is used in the report template. You can override the DataSourceConfiguration via the Datasource.setup or via the URL parameter datasource=.
- The appropriate driver is loaded with the appropriate URL and the appropriate properties.
- A connection to the database is opened. This only happens when the maximum number of connections (MaxConnections=5 in the i-net Clear Reports configuration) is not exceeded---and if the method database.useJdbcDriver() returns true.
- The meta-data is examined and the appropriate database class is loaded
- An SQL statement is created and executed in the database if database.useJdbcDriver() returns true.
- The report data is fetched by calling the method getReportData(). The data is fetched, unnecessary records are discarded, the data is sorted and grouped and stored into the engine by using the method engine.setData().
- The connection is closed immediately.
Fetching data for sub-reports is more complicated. Each sub-report is a complete report in its own right and thus consumes one connection to the database. Also a sub-report may be called more than once for each main report. For a given main report a sub-report must be re-executed and its report data must be fetched again if it is called with different set of parameters. This means that the database connection for a sub-report cannot be closed immediately, instead it will be closed after the main report has finished executing.
In the i-net Clear Reports configuration the maximum of connections is set to 5 (MaxConnections=5). If your main report consumes one connection then your sub-reports can only consume
MaxConnections-1
connections.
So please set MaxConnections to an appropriate value. For example if you have a report which consumes a database connection and 5 sub-reports where each sub-report also consume one database connection set the value MaxConnections=6
. However, if your reports use more than 2 or 3 sub-reports, you should better change the layout of your report.If you override the method getReportData(), you could specify if the method getReportData() should be called whenever the set of parameters changes for the sub-report or only once. You do this by overriding the method getReportDataPerInstance() to return true.

setUseEscapeEverything
public void setUseEscapeEverything(boolean escapeEvreything) This method is for adapt the sql statement for a specific database.
This flag influence the way SQL identifier are written to SQL statement. Per default it is false and should be kept false for most of database.

Example - escape everything is true:
the original table identifier is"atable"
in catalog"aCatalog"
