Package com.inet.viewer
Class SwingViewerContext
java.lang.Object
com.inet.viewer.SwingViewerContext
- All Implemented Interfaces:
ViewerContext
The default implementation of ViewerContext for i-net Clear Reports Viewer. This takes all errors and displays them in a
small error dialog, and shows a simple info dialog when one is requested.
Note that most often the source given for an error will be a SwingReportView, allowing you to make further adjustments to your settings for that view.
For example, if an UnknownHostException comes for a ReportView, you might want to make an adjustment to the ReportView's RenderData object, making it fall back onto a backup report server instead of the original one:
class MyErrorHandler extends SwingViewerContext {
public void showError( ViewerException e, Object source ) {
if (source instanceof ReportView && e.getCause() instanceof UnknownHostException) {
((ReportView)source).getReportData().setReportLocation( "http://www.backupserver.com:9000/?report=file:backupreport.rpt" );
((ReportView)source).reload();
}
}
It is also possible you would like to add specific logging to all errors shown:
class MyErrorHandler extends SwingViewerContext {
public void showError( ViewerException e, Object source ) {
// ...log the error here...
super.showError(e,source);
}

SwingViewerContext
Creates a SwingViewerContext with a reference to a SwingReportViewer which is used for example when parent components are needed for dialogs, etc.- Parameters:
viewer
- SwingReportViewer to which this context belongs.- Since:
- 7.1
-
SwingViewerContext
Creates a SwingViewerContext with a reference to a parent Component which is used for example when parent components are needed for dialogs, etc.- Parameters:
parent
- Parent to which this context belongs.- Since:
- 15.0
-
-
Method Details
-
showInfo
public void showInfo()Shows the info screen of this viewer.- Specified by:
showInfo
in interfaceViewerContext
- Since:
- 7.0
-
showError
This method will be called whenever an error occurs and thereby allows the implementor of this interface to handle the error as seen fit.- Specified by:
showError
in interfaceViewerContext
- Parameters:
e
- The Throwable of the error that actually occurred.source
- The source where the exception occurred, such as the SwingReportView or SwingPageView.- Since:
- 7.0
-
export
This method is called when the export action is to be performed. By default, this will show the export dialog and then export the currently visible report view's report with the settings given by the user.- Specified by:
export
in interfaceViewerContext
- Parameters:
view
- ReportView whose report is to be exported- Returns:
- the progress
- Since:
- 7.0
-
export
public ExportProgress export(Component parent, RenderData data, PropertyChangeListener changeListener) Opens the export dialog with the given parent as its parent and exports using the provided RenderData object. This method can be called without first initializing a ReportViewer if so desired. Note that this method is never called by the viewer itself, rather it is meant for you to call yourself if you want to export without initializing a viewer.- Parameters:
parent
- Parent to display the dialog indata
- RenderData to use for retrieving the export datachangeListener
- PropertyChangeListener that will be notified whenever a bean changes a "bound" property.- Returns:
- the running export progress
- Since:
- 7.6
-
export
Opens the export dialog with the given parent as its parent and exports using the provided RenderData object. This method can be called without first initializing a ReportViewer if so desired. Note that this method is never called by the viewer itself, rather it is meant for you to call yourself if you want to export without initializing a viewer.- Parameters:
parent
- Parent to display the dialog indata
- RenderData to use for retrieving the export data- Returns:
- the running export progress
- Since:
- 7.6
-
print
This method is called when the print action is to be performed. By default, this will show a print dialog and then print the given report view's report.- Specified by:
print
in interfaceViewerContext
- Parameters:
view
- ReportView whose report is to be printed.- Returns:
- the progress
- Since:
- 7.0
-
showStatusMessage
Handled when a status message is to be displayed. Normally the implementor will display this message in the status bar.- Specified by:
showStatusMessage
in interfaceViewerContext
- Parameters:
view
- the ReportView which is to display the status message, must not be nullmessage
- the message to be displayedisError
- true if the message is an error message, false otherwise.- Since:
- 8.1
-
showUrl
Handles opening a URL, e.g. a click on a hyperlink. Actually opening the link should run asynchronously, so it won't block the control flow.- Specified by:
showUrl
in interfaceViewerContext
- Parameters:
url
- String of the hyperlink URL which is to be shown. The length need to be > 0.props
- Extra optional Properties for the URL connection (can be null for no extra properties)- Throws:
MalformedURLException
- The supplied URL String is invalid.
-
setViewer
Sets the viewer to which this context belongs.- Parameters:
viewer
- the viewer to which this context belongs, can be null if the context is not to be bound to a viewer- Since:
- 9.0
-
getViewer
Returns the viewer to which this context belongs.- Returns:
- the viewer to which this context belongs, or null if the context is not bound to a viewer
- Since:
- 9.0
-
showPrompts
Handles a prompt request from the server. The chosen value of the prompts in the array must be set in the PromptData objects usingPromptData.setChosenValues(Object)
.- Specified by:
showPrompts
in interfaceViewerContext
- Parameters:
prompts
- list of required promptsdata
- RenderData of the report requiring prompts- Returns:
- true if prompts were successfully set, false if the prompt dialog was canceled
-
showHelp
