Web and Application Developer
Services
Crystal Reports Server includes
comprehensive software development
kits (SDKs) and portal integration
kits to enable flexible integration with
existing Web environments.
Developer Interfaces
Crystal Reports Server comprises a
powerful set of reporting services
that are exposed through an extensive
set of SDKs. All end-user interfaces
are built on top of these SDKs, which
means that developers can access
all aspects of the software. The SDK
object model encapsulates all the calls
needed to:
• Extract content listings
• Control content processing and
delivery
• View and interact with content
• Administer the software
All the sample applications included
with Crystal Reports Server use this
well-documented object model.
Services for Microsoft .NET and J2EE
Crystal Reports Server provides tight
integration with Java and Microsoft-
based platforms via native Java, Micro-
soft .NET, and Web services SDKs.
These kits include robust reporting
components, sample applications, and
documentation. Developers can install
these components on Web application
servers, including Microsoft IIS, BEA
WebLogic, IBM WebSphere, Apache,
Oracle10g application server, or Sun
ONE. The SDKs provide a high-level
application programming interface (API)
so that you can use the development
language you prefer to control every
aspect of Crystal Reports Server. The
components process requests from
users in the user-interaction tier and
then communicate these requests to
the appropriate service in the infra-
structure tier. The developer services
include support for report viewing
and logic to interpret and direct Web
requests to the appropriate Crystal
Reports Server service.
Crystal Reports Server uses a Java
SDK or a Microsoft .NET SDK to
run the software with a third-party
application server, which acts as the
gateway between the Web server and
the rest of Crystal Reports Server.
The application server is responsible
for processing requests from your
browser, sending certain requests to
the Web component adapter, and using
the SDK to interpret components in
JavaServer Pages (JSP files) or in
Active Server Pages (.aspx files).
Web Services
Crystal Reports Server includes a
comprehensive Web services SDK that
allows developers to integrate docu-
ments directly into applications using
industry-standard technology. It con-
sists of a series of Web-based func-
tions that use Microsoft .NET or Java 2
Platform, Enterprise Edition (J2EE)
platforms.
