Im trying to create a basic jasper report with JRBeanCollectionDataSource
. In there im having a list of objects inside the javabean.
public class Course {
private int id;
private List<Student> students;
}
Student object looks like
public class Student {
private String name;
private int id;
}
I want to print student information inside my report. This is how my jrxml looks like
<subDataset name="dataset1" uuid="09015d96-ad5a-4fed-aa9e-19d25e02e205">
<field name="students" class="java.util.List">
<fieldDescription><![CDATA[students]]></fieldDescription>
</field>
</subDataset>
<field name="id" class="java.lang.Integer"/>
<field name="students" class="java.util.List"/>
<field name="name" class="java.lang.String"/>
<componentElement>
<reportElement x="200" y="0" width="400" height="20"/>
<jr:list xmlns:jr="http://jasperreports.sourceforge.net/jasperreports/components" xsi:schemaLocation="http://jasperreports.sourceforge.net/jasperreports/components http://jasperreports.sourceforge.net/xsd/components.xsd" printOrder="Vertical">
<datasetRun subDataset="dataset1">
<dataSourceExpression><![CDATA[new net.sf.jasperreports.engine.data.JRBeanCollectionDataSource($F{students})]]></dataSourceExpression>
</datasetRun>
<jr:listContents height="20" width="400">
<textField>
<reportElement x="0" y="0" width="100" height="20"/>
<box leftPadding="10">
<topPen lineWidth="1.0"/>
<leftPen lineWidth="1.0"/>
<bottomPen lineWidth="1.0"/>
<rightPen lineWidth="1.0"/>
</box>
<textElement/>
<textFieldExpression><![CDATA[$F{name}]]></textFieldExpression>
</textField>
</jr:listContents>
</jr:list>
</componentElement>
But when i run this im getting
net.sf.jasperreports.engine.design.JRValidationException: Report design not valid :
1. Field not found : name
Report design not valid :
1. Field not found : name
Im a beginner to jasper reports can anyone please tell me what am i doing wrong here. Thanks
You have to define the fields before using it.
In your jrxml
, you have three field defined students
in the subDataSet, id
and students
. But you haven't defined name
and using it in your jrxml
and that's why you are getting this exception.
Try defining name
, like
<field name="name" class="java.lang.String"/>
Try with a subreport. I launched your example in my local database without any problem.
This is my list of student objects:
private List<Student> getList(){
List<Student> students = new ArrayList<Student>();
Connection con = ....; //Retrieve your connection the way you want
ResultSet rs = con.createStatement().executeQuery("select name, id from students order by id");
while (rs.next()){
students.add(new Student(rs.getString(1), rs.getInt(2)));
}
con.close();
return students;
}
This is how I passed my JRBeanCollectionDataSource
object from my Java program:
Map<String, Object> params = new HashMap<String, Object>();
params.put("SUBREPORT_DATASOURCE", new JRBeanCollectionDataSource(getList()));
String jasperPath = "....."; //where you have your compiled jasper report file
JasperPrint jasperPrint = JasperFillManager.fillReport(jasperPath, params, new JREmptyDataSource(1));
This is the xlm main report "reportStudent.jrxml":
<jasperReport xmlns="http://jasperreports.sourceforge.net/jasperreports" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://jasperreports.sourceforge.net/jasperreports http://jasperreports.sourceforge.net/xsd/jasperreport.xsd" name="reportStudent" language="groovy" pageWidth="595" pageHeight="842" columnWidth="555" leftMargin="20" rightMargin="20" topMargin="20" bottomMargin="20">
<property name="ireport.zoom" value="1.0"/>
<property name="ireport.x" value="0"/>
<property name="ireport.y" value="0"/>
<parameter name="SUBREPORT_DATASOURCE" class="net.sf.jasperreports.engine.JRDataSource" isForPrompting="false">
<defaultValueExpression><![CDATA[]]></defaultValueExpression>
</parameter>
<background>
<band splitType="Stretch"/>
</background>
<detail>
<band height="125" splitType="Stretch">
<subreport>
<reportElement x="0" y="0" width="555" height="125"/>
<dataSourceExpression><![CDATA[$P{SUBREPORT_DATASOURCE}]]></dataSourceExpression>
<subreportExpression><![CDATA["./reportStudent_subreport1.jasper"]]></subreportExpression>
</subreport>
</band>
</detail>
</jasperReport>
And this is the one for the subreport "reportStudent_subreport1.jrxml":
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

This is for just one list of students. You can iterate inside the main report and print your course id and students subreport in the detail band with just a little changes. Hope it helps to start with.
Fount out the issue. name attribute should defined inside the subdataset
. Otherwise it wont work
<subDataset name="dataset1" uuid="09015d96-ad5a-4fed-aa9e-19d25e02e205">
<field name="name" class="java.lang.String"/>
</subDataset>
