Executing a Report and Retrieving the Results

// obtain the WebObjectsFactory object by calling the getInstance static method

   WebObjectsFactory woFact = WebObjectsFactory.getInstance();

 

// instantiate the WebIServerSession object and use it to obtain a session for the given project

   WebIServerSession webSS = woFact.getIServerSession();

   webSS.setServerName("localhost");

   webSS.setLogin("administrator");

   webSS.setProjectName("MicroStrategy Tutorial");

   webSS.setApplicationType(EnumDSSXMLApplicationType.DssXmlApplicationCustomApp);

 

// Create the WebReportSource, object which is the entry point to the report execution and manipulation functionality

   WebReportSource reptSrc = woFact.getReportSource();

 

// Specify a particular report ID and use it to create a new WebReportInstance object

   String reportID = "A20C8AC711D60AE310008BB3D1CEE6A4"; // report dssID

   WebReportInstance rptInst = reptSrc.getNewInstance(reportID);

 

// Set the mode to be synchronous

   rptInst.setAsync(false);

 

// Cause the API to poll Intelligence Server to obtain the results and return them to the user as a string

   String xmlResult = rptInst.getResultsAsXML();
