UNIX下报表技术研究及报表工具开发

Study on Reporting Technologies and Implementation of a Reporting Tool Generator

提出并讨论了UNIX下报表工具需要解决的三个核心问题:报表数据,报表格式和报表输出。构造了一个报表工具模型。在该模型中,引入了报表数据定义语言和报表格式描述语言,用相应的解释器解释它们。最后,以文中的报表工具模型为基础,实现了一个UNIX下的报表工具。

Currently, only a few reporting tools under UNIX, which support database application development, are available and they do not fulfill the developer's and user's needs well?We identify and discuss the three main problems that reporting tools have to address, which are report data, report format and report output. Then, we construct a reporting tool model. In our model, report data definition language (RDDL) and report format description language (RFDL) are used with interpreters to interpreter them. Last, we build a reporting tool under UNIX based on the model.
