Various Actuate API's
There are two types of Actuate API's
1.)Actuate DevWb API ---This API Incapsulates all
the functions of the DEVWb via Code.This API has a
wrapper around it in so it is easy to call the functions
from Progress Applications.This API Contains Functions
to do the following tasks
eg : Generate Report,view report and print report
2.)Actuate Report Server API----This API is purely
C++ API dealing with the functionality of the report
Server.The Report server API is bit technical and in
order to incapsulate this API one needs a C++ compiler
to put a wrapper around the report server API.
For all common purposes the Actuate DEVWB API is Used.
For triggering off reports from the server,it is basically
the same procedure as firing reports from local machine
with one difference.The Application needs to log in the
server in order to run the reports from the server.
