Using java web start to run a report from forms

edited Jun 20, 2018 2:41PM in Oracle Reports (MOSC) 4 commentsAnswered ✓

I have moved many of my users to the browser-less Java web start from a .JNLP file for our local Forms & Reports application.  The Forms portion works like a charm in its own Java window.  However, the Reports are called from Forms using RUN_REPORT_OBJECT and then WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT calls.  These calls have the https://<server>/reports/rwservlet structure embedded within the calls (P_ACTION for RUN_REPORT_OBJECT, and the first parameter within the WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT call).

Is there a way to integrate a jnlps://<server>/reports/rwservlet call to "web start" the reports without a browser as well?  Internet Explorer is beginning to cause us difficulties with Java in some isolated circumstances, and I'd simply like to work through the user's local JRE client and avoid ALL the browsers and their issues if possible.

Howdy, Stranger!
