Jasperreports with Struts

[rafanami]

Hi everyone.
I'm trying to add Jasperreports to my architecture. How can I do this, if I'm using Struts in my webapp? I use Spring 1.2.1 to manage my layers. Did I have to code an Action to generate the report or I'll have to code a servlet to do it?

PS - I want to use the Hibernate Collections searched as a DataSource to my reports.

Thanks in advance

You have to write another action to handle it if using Struts, or simply using SpringMVC for generating report. SpringMVC has already provided the existing interface to integrate with JasperReports. It works prettey well.

Yes, but my my scenario is something like this:
I have to make a query, filtered with soime values, and generate a
report. Because I am using Struts, I have to write a Action, of course, but you mean do all the stuff in one method in the action? Like, in a doReport(), doing the query using my managers, and generating the report using Jasper? Do I have to wire Jasper in Spring or I can just add the .jars in my application and run it???

Best Regards
