JasperReports 3.5 for Java Developers

Exporting to XML

JasperReports uses a Document Type Definition (DTD) file to generate XML reports. XML reports can be exported back to the compiled reports by using the net.sf.jasperreports.engine.xml.JRPrintXmlLoader class. The following example demonstrates how to export a report to XML:
