Crystal Reports for Rational Application Developer Designer Guide
Configuring the
Crystal Reports processing engine to find the UFL
After you have created a User Function
Library and a User Function, you must set up the
Crystal Reports processing engine so that it knows where to
find the UFL JAR file. You will add the JAR file to the engine's classpath and
list the class names of UFLs that will be made available to the engine.
To add your UFL JAR to the engine
classpath
On the
Window menu, click
Preferences.
The Preferences window appears.
Expand the
Crystal
Reports node and then click
Engine.
Click
File and then navigate to the JAR file that contains your
UFL.
Note: The recommended
JAR file to use is one that has been exported to the
Crystal Reports Web project.
To add the class names of UFLs that
will be available to the engine
Click
New.
Enter the name of the UFL
class.
The name of the UFL class is the
package and class name that you entered when you were creating the UFL. For
example, <package>.<Function Library Class>.
