Is there any example of a discontinuous one real variable integral.

I know that an integral from $0$ to $x$ of a function of $x$ is itself a function, so I want to know if is there any condition of it to be discontinuous.

I haven't restrict $f(x)$ to be continuous or not, so I think that one needs to take both options. So if the integrand is continuous then the integral is too.

No, at least not with the usual calculus notion of integral (with Lebesgue measure in the background) and $f$ being bounded. Let $(x_n)$ be a nonnegative sequence converging to $x$ and $f$ be a bounded function such that the integral $I_x=\int_0^xf(y)~dy$ is finite and well defined for all $x\geq 0$.

Suppose $I_{x_n}$ does not converge to $I_x$. Then there is an $\epsilon>0$ such that for all $\delta>0$, there is $x'$ such that $|I_x-I_{x'}|>\epsilon$ and $|x-x'|<\delta$. Let $B>0$ be such that $-B< f(x)<B$ for all $x\geq 0$. Then the integral $$\bigg|\int_{x-\delta}^{x+\delta}f(y)~dx\bigg|\leq 2\delta B$$ for all $\delta>0$. In particular for, $\delta<\epsilon/(B2)$, the integral can not vary that much and we get a contradiction.

A continuous function on a closed and bounded interval is of course already bounded.

In fact boundedness is not necessary either; if $f$ is Lebesgue integrable on $[0,b]$ then we can use dominated convergence to show $\int_0^x f$ is continuous on $[0,b]$. –  Nate Eldredge Aug 14 '12 at 13:03

If the integrated function is continuous then the integral will be continuous.

This paper of Jeffrey 'The importance of being continuous' is a good reading about this.

If the integrated function is not continuous and not bounded (for example $\int \dfrac {dx}{x^2}$) then the integral may not be continuous (see Jeffreys' paper too for a discussion about this).

You may too integrate 'distributions' (not 'real' functions !) like $s\;\delta(x-x_0)$ these will create a jump of height $s$ at $x=x_0$.

Let $f$ be a function and denote $F(x)=\int_0^xf(t)\,dt$. For $F$ to be well defined, $f$ must be integrable (e.g. in the Riemann sense). It is a fact that in this case $F$ is always continuous. Here is a proof:
Since $f$ is integrable, it is bounded: $m\leq f(x)\leq M$ for some $m,M$ and all $x$ in a suitable region. Then, taking $\varepsilon>0$ and assuming $|x-y|<\frac{\varepsilon}{\max\{|m|,|M|\}}$, we have $$|F(x)-F(y)|=\left|\int_0^xf(t)\,dt-\int_0^yf(t)\,dt\right|=\left|\int_y^xf(t)\,dt\right| \leq \max\{|m|,|M|\}|x-y|\leq \varepsilon$$ This shows that $F$ is continuous.
A function integrable on $[0,x]$ for all $x$ is not necessarily bounded: see for example $\frac{1}{\sqrt{x}}$. –  Najib Idrissi Aug 14 '12 at 13:08
