We are using Java Reporting Component. Current implementation utilizes CrystalReportViewer and allows users to see reports online. However, we need to execute a number of reports programmatically and present the user with links to PDFs. So, in general, we need to implement the following logic:

Scheduling process invokes our process that calls Crystal Reporting Component. Our process needs to receive PDF file/stream from the Component and save it to the file system. At the moment we cannot find a way to implement this logic. ReportExportControl requires HttpServletRequest and HttpServletResponse objects that our
server-side process will not have.

Is there a way to generate a PDF on the server-side or is there any sample code out there?

Thanks.
