Publishing Reports to the Web - Downloads - Oracle

Configuring Reports Server
in your database. Using OracleAS Reports Services's event-driven publishing API, you
identify the event as a specific job type. When the event occurs, the job type
information is sent to Reports Server, which looks up the job type under the job
element in its configuration file, and follows the direction provided in the element's
attributes to the engine (and, if applicable, security implementation) specified for that
type of job.
Attributes of the job element are listed and described in Table 3–7.
Table 3–7 Attributes of the job element
Attribute Valid values Description
jobType string Default: report
Describes the type of job to be processed by the
server. You can enter any type of job, as long as
Reports Server has an engine to process it.
engineId ID reference References the ID entered for the engine that will
process this job type. Available IDs are specified
under the engine element in the server
configuration file using the id attribute. The id is
a unique keyword (that you devise) within a given
configuration XML file that identifies a particular
engine.
securityId ID reference References the ID entered for the security
mechanism that will be applied to this job type.
Available IDs are specified under the security
element in the server configuration file.
3.2.1.8 notification
Example
Required/Optional
Optional. If you do not enter a notification element in the configuration file, the
notification function is disabled. You can have from zero to multiple notification
elements in your configuration file.
Description
Use the notification element to specify a Java class that defines the type of
notification that should be sent when a job succeeds or fails. You can use the default
notification class, which provides for notification via e-mail, or design your own with
the Oracle Reports Notification API.
Note: The RSDK contains the latest APIs that you can use with
Oracle Reports.
Attributes of the notification element are listed and described in Table 3–8.
