How to create a report in java?

[SKumar]

All

I need help 🙂

I am running Mega 2009 Sp5 Patch 5 Rls 6. I would like to create a report similar to Application Communication, but .

I am very well versed with java. What I dont know is where to start. I have no clue as to where to begin, I looked around in the Knowledge base, but couldnt find an article that explains this.

1. How do I develop a report from a Java IDE like Eclipse?

2. How do I run the Java code from within the tool?

3. Could someone post a sample java report?

4. What additional licenses would I need inorder to create a report

5. If i cannot create this in an IDE, how do I create one in mega and debug?

I would be very thankful if someone points me in the right direction!
