This documentation covers the Viewer Java SDK. The Viewer Java SDK contains lightweight components intended to provide web developers with versatile tools for displaying reports inside JSP pages using DHTML. These components offer properties that you can use to control actions such as displaying buttons or displaying a group tree, page, or toolbar. They also support event handling, exporting, printing, displaying multiple viewers in the same page, and both automatic and developer-specified prompting for database or parameter information.

These lightweight components include the Java viewers that inherit functionality from the {@link com.crystaldecisions.report.web.viewer.ReportServerControl ReportServerControl} Object. The viewers do not require frames and can co-exist with other HTML that you wish to display on the same page as the report. Each viewer provides different capabilities.

Class Description
{@link com.crystaldecisions.report.web.viewer.ReportExportControl ReportExportControl} Provides exporting functionality including the ability to preview an exported report or save an exported report to disk.
{@link com.crystaldecisions.report.web.viewer.CrystalReportViewer CrystalReportViewer} Provides basic viewer capabilities.
{@link com.crystaldecisions.report.web.viewer.CrystalReportPartsViewer CrystalReportPartsViewer} Provides the ability to view individual report parts (charts, text, or fields).

Note: In order to properly clean up resources used by the CrystalReportViewer, the application must close the ReportClientDocument and dispose of the CrystalReportViewer. Perform this cleanup when the viewer has finished using the current report.
