Compiles the report design object received as the first parameter, placing the result in the file specified by the second parameter. The resulting file will contain a serialized instance of a net.sf.jasperreports.engine.JasperReport object representing the compiled report design.

 public static  void compileReportToStream(InputStream inputStream,
    OutputStream outputStream) throws JRException 
{
		JasperDesign jasperDesign = JRXmlLoader.load(inputStream);
		compileReportToStream(jasperDesign, outputStream);
}

Compiles the XML representation of the report design read from the supplied input stream and writes the generated compiled report design object to the output stream specified by the second parameter.

 public static  void compileReportToStream(JasperDesign jasperDesign,
    OutputStream outputStream) throws JRException 
{
		JasperReport jasperReport = compileReport(jasperDesign);
		JRSaver.saveObject(jasperReport, outputStream);
}

Compiles the report design object represented by the first parameter and writes the generated compiled report design object to the output stream specified by the second parameter.

}

 public static Collection verifyDesign(JasperDesign jasperDesign) 
{
		return JRVerifier.verifyDesign(jasperDesign);
}

Verifies the validity and consistency of the report design object. Returns a collection of errors , if problems are found in the report design.

 public static String writeReportToXml(JRReport report) 
{
		return JRXmlWriter.writeReport(report, "UTF-8");
}

Generates the XML representation of the report design object supplied as parameter using the "UTF-8" enconding.

 public static String writeReportToXmlFile(String sourceFileName) throws JRException 
{
		File sourceFile = new File(sourceFileName);
		/* We need the report name. */
		JRReport report = (JRReport)JRLoader.loadObject(sourceFile);
		File destFile = new File(sourceFile.getParent(), report.getName() + ".jasper.jrxml");
		String destFileName = destFile.toString();
		writeReportToXmlFile(
			report, 
			destFileName
			);
		return destFileName;
}

Generates the XML representation of the report design loaded from the specified filename. The result of this operation is an "UTF-8" encoded XML file having the same name as the report design, plus the *.jasper.jrxml extension, located in the same directory as the source file.

 public static  void writeReportToXmlFile(String sourceFileName,
    String destFileName) throws JRException 
{
		JRReport report = (JRReport)JRLoader.loadObject(sourceFileName);
		writeReportToXmlFile(
			report, 
			destFileName
			);
}
