Configuring Reports Server
You can also enter from zero to multiple properties under the engine element. The
only requirement is that they be name/value pairs recognized by the Java class that
implements the Reports Engine. For example, if you use the default engine Java class
that is provided with OracleAS Reports Services, your engine configuration entry
might look like this:
In this example, sourceDir and tempDir are set up for a Windows environment
(UNIX would be sourceDir="ORACLE_HOME/reports/myReport" and
tempDir="ORACLE_HOME/reports/myTemp"). The sourceDir property
identifies the default directory you will use for report definition files. It overrides path
information specified in the REPORTS_PATH environment variable.
The tempDir property identifies the name and location of the temporary directory
OracleAS Reports Services will use for its temporary files. If this value is unspecified
for a default engine, OracleAS Reports Services will use the temporary directory
specified in the REPORTS_TMP environment variable. If REPORTS_TMP is also not
specified, OracleAS Reports Services will use your operating system's default
temporary directory.
The classPath attribute is not specified because this configuration uses the default
engine class.
3.2.1.5 security
Example
Note: In releases prior to 10g (9.0.4), the security element was
specified differently. In 10g (9.0.4) and later releases, the old
property specification, securityUserid, is still provided but
commented out. You only need to use securityUserid if you
want to connect to an OracleAS Portal instance other than the
default instance, which is installed with the Oracle Application
Server infrastructure.
Required/Optional
Optional. If you do not enter a security element in the configuration file, Reports
Server is not secure. You can have from zero to multiple security elements in your
configuration file.
Description
The security element identifies the fully qualified Java class that controls server
access. You can use the default security class provided with OracleAS Reports
