I need quick start to Java, Apache, and Java web based apps to use JasperReports

As a PHP dev who tinkers with javascript when neccessary, I was tasked with producing an application using jasper reports, because java is like javascript, right?. Thankfully, some kind folk have produced an open source utility (.jar) that run jasper reports from the shell/command line.It's called RunJasperReports (). ttp://code.google.com/p/runjasperreports/I haven't looked at the latest release but the one I ended up using supports MySQL, PostgreSQL and a couple of other data sources, and shouldn't be too difficult to extend if you can find the right odbc drivers.Once you have a template up and running (designed in iReport), you can use the language of your choice (assuming shell access) to produce reports by simply running the utility with parameters for the jrxml template path, desired format and database url.
