What you are after is a BIP licence included with the App Server (50k per CPU) or you can go for user licence which is $30 per user with a minimum of 1000 users (30k). Alternatively you can apply to sales for a discount for using/packaging the API's standalone. I know of one case where a customer was successful in doing so. The argument is that the licensing structure doesn’t make sense when you compare what the API’s provide compared to the BI Server.<BR/>good luck,<BR/>BrendenBrenden Ansteyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09715936768254537319noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12864007.post-43019649942691524332008-04-27T08:23:00.000-07:002008-04-27T08:23:00.000-07:00Hmm. what is the licensing like for xmlpublisher? ...Hmm. what is the licensing like for xmlpublisher? I took a look at BI publisher and we were looking at .5 mil to do it.

Two approaches I would consider next time would be to:<BR/>1. Store the documents in a CLOB in the database and simply use ADF BC read the documents into a stream.<BR/>2. Deploy the XML files with the application in the web content and use java.net.URL to read the documents into a stream.<BR/>I would favour option 1 because you could easily develop a few screens to maintain the XML documents without needing to redeploy the application.<BR/>regards,<BR/>BrendenBrenden Ansteyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09715936768254537319noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12864007.post-81700047325610077452007-10-03T06:19:00.001-07:002007-10-03T06:19:00.001-07:00Hi Brenden We are also working on a similar req...Hi Brenden<BR/> We are also working on a similar requirement. Working on Deepak Vohra's example, i could get to create the reports using the main method of the java API calling class. But am unable to map the locations of the xsl files and xml data files to pass them to the API when using ADF.
