Creating report structure dynamically (vs. template based reports)
Hello,
I'm familiar with Jasper Reports working mode, I would please like to know if using BIRT is a better solution for my needs.
I have a report that can contain dynamic amount of data. The report is a table showing by which factors some result was calculated. The number of factors can vary, thus the number of columns in the table varies accordingly.
Now, as for jasper: It requires you to create the template before you use your data source to "fill" the report. This is good if you have random amount of pages in each report but not workable if your report data affects the report design it self.
As I have no experience with BIRT, I would please like to know if such requirement can be solved with Eclipse's BIRT reporting library.
Thank you for your time,
Maxim.
