Build and Deploy

Install maven

You can download and install Maven2 from the Maven website: http://maven.apache.org/download.html#installation Put the maven binary (mvn or mvn.exe) in your environment PATH so that you can execute mvn from the command line.

Download and unpack the Jasper Reports Server source code

The JasperReports Server source code can be downloaded from the JasperForge.org downloads area: http://jasperforge.org. The source code package is a ZIP archive named jasperreports-server-cp-4.2.1src.zip. Unpack the jasperreports-server-cp-4.2.1-src.zip file to a directory location, such as C:\ or /home/<user>. The resulting location will be referred to as <js-src> Source Code Package Structure

Configuring the default_master.properties File

cd <js-src>/jasperserver/buildomatic

Copy the appropriate file to the current directory and change its name at the same time: Windows: copy sample_conf\source-postgresql_master.properties
default_master.properties

Edit the new default_master.properties file and set the following properties to your local settings

Mysql

Download the JDBC driver, mysql-connector-java-5.1.18-bin.jar Place the MySQL driver in <js-src>/jasperserver/buildomatic/conf_source/db/mysql/jdbc Go to the buildomatic directory in the source distribution
cd <js-src>/jasperserver/buildomatic

Copy the appropriate file to the current directory and change its name at the same time: Windows: copy sample_conf\source\mysql_master.properties
default_master.properties

Edit the new default_master.properties file and set the following properties to your local settings:

Please note that js-pro-path should be set to nothing Example js-pro-path= This is to prevent the build from failing. This is not mentioned in the Jasperserver Build guide.

Refreshing your Buildomatic Settings

Building JasperReports Server

Before you run the commands under Building Jasper Server, make sure that you do the following Comment out the repository http://repository.jboss.org/maven2 Create the folder <js-src>\jasperserver-repo\mysql\mysql-connector-java and add the mysql-connectorjava-5.1.18-bin jar

Eclipse Integration
Build the jasper reports server
Make sure that you build the jasper reports server with the steps above before you start integrating the code with eclipse

Remove unnecessary files

Using Windows Explorer, browse to the c:\js-workspace\jasperreports-server-x.x.xsrc\jasperserver folder Delete the .classpath and .project files if they exist

Create the jasperserver-repo project

Create the Java Project.

Click File > New > Project Expand the Java node, select Java Project, and click Next > o Project Name: jasperserver-repo o Uncheck Use Default Location and click the Browse button to navigate to the jasperserver-repo folder Click Finish Go to the Properties of this project and select java build path Go to the Order and Export tab, select all the jars , except the JRE

Create Jasper server project in eclipse

Click File > New > Project Expand the Java node, select Java Project, and click Next > o Project Name: jasperserver o Uncheck Use Default Location and click the Browse button to navigate to the jasperserver folder o Click Next > Click the Allow output folders for source folders and add the following location to the text field below o jasperserver/eclipse-build-classes Click Finish A prompt will notify you that the output folder has changed. Click Yes to remove the old generated class files

Clear the build path for the Jasper Server Project

Right-click on the Project and select Build Path > Configure Build Path In the Project tab, click Add Click the checkbox next to jasperserver-repo and click OK In the Libraries tab, select all the jar files and click the Remove button o Ensure you have NOT selected the JRE Keep this window open

Add jars to the Jasper Server Project

Click the Add Library button Select the JUnit option and click Next >

Ensure JUnit 4 is selected in the JUnit Library version combo box and click Finish Click the Add Library button again Ensure the User Library option is selected in the list and click Next > Click the User Libraries button Click the New button In the User library name: text box, enter JasperReports-Server-x.x.x (where x.x.x is the version number) and click OK Ensure the new library is selected and click the Add JARs button Browse to the folder which contains the JasperReports Server pro libraries: o (Windows) C:\js-workspace\jasperreports-server-vx.x.x-src\jasperserverpro\jasperserver-war\target\jasperserver-pro\WEB-INF\lib o (Linux) /opt/js-workspace/jasperreports-server-vx.x.x-src/jasperserverpro/jasperserver-war/target/jasperserver-pro/WEB-INF/lib Select all of the jar files in the folder and click Open Click the OK and Finish buttons to close the libraries dialog boxes Click the Add External JARs button o Browse to the lib folder of your Tomcat server:C:\path\to\tomcat\lib Select the jsp-api.jar and servlet-api.jar files and click Open Keep this window open

Export jars to other projects

Click the Order and Export tab Click the Select All button Uncheck the JRE System Library entry, but ensure all others are checked Click OK to close the Properties dialog box

Remove the test packages from the build path

In the Project Explorer, hold down the CTRL key and select the following folders: o buildomatic/src/main/java o jasperserver-api-impl/engine/src/test/java o jasperserver-api-impl/metadata/src/test/java o jasperserver-remote-tests/src/test/java o jasperserver-unit-test/src/test/java o jasperserver-war-jar/src/test/java o jasperserver-war/src/test/java o production-tests/src/test/java Right-click on the selected packages and select Build Path > Remove from Build Path Expand the jasperserver-war-jar/src/main/java folder Expand the com.jaspersoft.jasperserver.war.tiles2 package Right-click on the SpringTilesConfigurer.java class and select Build Path > Exclude

You will need to down load some additional jars

flexdock-0.4.0.jar and add this jar to the Jasper server project

You will still see some compilation errors

These compilation error around 7 , can be removed by just commenting the code. This code does not seem to be called from anywhere.
