Hi all,

we are using Baan IV c4, with the latest version of tools and porting set.

We are using Crystal Report Enterprise Edition 9.

We are moving Baan IV c4 to SLES Linux 9 and we would like to use Business Object XI relase 2 for Linux (which is available) connected with it.

Unfortunately Business Object didn't released the Baan Connection Kit for it, but since a generic XML data source is available for BOI XI rel 2, we would like to use it to read and process the XML files that the Baan report
can produce.

This "generic" XML connector of BOI XI rel 2 needs to have a valid XSD file which describe the XML schema "in conjunction" with the XML file.

Since I believe that LN is already able to produce this XSD file, is there a way to get this XSD file from Baan IV c4, maybe using an "external" component?


Many Thanks in advance.
Claudio Montanari

Hi Claudio,

there is a Baan Integration Kit (Baan Driver) available for BO-XI. This should also work under XI Relaease 2. As I understand it in Release 2 there was only a move away from M$ to Open source (MSDE to MySql and from IIS to Tomcat).

I know that, but the thing is that the Integration kit is only available for the Windows release of BO XI and we want to run it on Linux...
