1. A computer-implemented report generation system, comprising: a first generator, operably linked through a first interface to one or more associated first type components, which invokes at least one first type component to generate a report element of a first type; and a second generator, operably linked through a second interface to one or more associated second type components, which invokes at least one second type component to generate a report element of a second type; wherein said first and second generators each invoke at least one component in response to processing first and second type included component sections that respectively identify the at least one first and second type components to be invoked.
