BI Publisher ToolBox

Ever wished that using the Oracle BI Publisher APIs could be easier to use? Ever wanted a single-click template load application for EBS Template Builder? Ever wanted to be able to test your reports with a single click? Look no further! These features and many more are provided in the BI Publisher ToolBox, a free configuration management tool I created for Oracle BI Publisher .

The BI Publisher ToolBox is the predecessor to the BIPublisherIDE. It's another application, I've written to help supplement BI Publisher Development. To learn more about how this free utility can make running Oracle BI Publisher reporting components incredibly easy click the link below. OTN Tech Article: Getting Started with BI Publisher ToolBox

Like the other applications I've written, the Toolbox is a 100% java. If you don't have JRE 1.6 installed you need to do so (click here).

HI Sir,
Need Help on the below mentioned issuse...
I am trying to generate an XML report using data source as Rowset. I have a parent child relationship in my rowset.
The Parent record (Header) contains around 35K rows (and can be more) while the child record has around 350k(and can be more) rows.
&rs_STMNT_HDR = CreateRowset(Record.UOA_STMNT_HDR, &rs_STMNT_DTL);
I am getting the following error while the execution of the program,
Java VM function %s failed. (2,719) PSXP_ENGINE.RTFProcessor.OnExecute Name:generateXSL PCPC:239 Statement:9
Called from:PSXP_RPTDEFNMANAGER.ReportDefn.OnExecute Name:ConvRtfTemplateToXsl Statement:1505
Called from:PSXP_RPTDEFNMANAGER.ReportDefn.OnExecute Name:ProcessReport Statement:1006
I checked the trace file that got generated during the process and it reads,.
.
.

22 18.21.56 0.000000 JavaVM Could not reserve enough space for object heap*
23 18.21.56 0.000000 JavaVM

The process is executing normally when run for a single employee (i.e. one header row and multiple childs).
