Blank PDF even with the simplest Jasperreport jrxm

问题:

i have a EJB site with glassfish 3.1 + JSF for jasperreport 4.0.1. the site has no problem on streaming pdf, but it products blank PDF while printing PDF with runReportToPdfStream, below is the code snippet:

EJB

public class BookEJB {  
    public void printReport() throws ClassNotFoundException, IOException, JRException {
        Map parameterMap = new HashMap();

        FacesContext ctx = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
        HttpServletResponse response = (HttpServletResponse) ctx.getExternalContext().getResponse();
        InputStream reportStream = ctx.getExternalContext().getResourceAsStream("/reports/test.jasper");

        ServletOutputStream servletOutputStream = response.getOutputStream();
        servletOutputStream.flush();

        response.setContentType("application/pdf");
        JasperRunManager.runReportToPdfStream(reportStream, servletOutputStream, parameterMap);

        servletOutputStream.flush();
        servletOutputStream.close();
        ctx.responseComplete();
}}

test.jrxml - a simple report without SQL connection

    </detail>
    <pageFooter>
        <band height="100"/>
    </pageFooter>
</jasperReport>

no error log in glassfish when generating this report on JSF, but only blank PDF has been shown. Please help, let me know if you need further info for the analysis.

After all, JasperRunManager.runReportToPdfStream(reportStream, servletOutputStream, parameterMap, new JREmptyDataSource()); solved the problem.

Quote from Sanda of Jasperreport:

By default, when no datasource info is present in a report, JR generates no pages. Another option (which can be set in the report's whenNoDataType attribute) would be to print all report sections, excepting the <detail>.

This report contains a detail section, but only with some static data. To ensure this section will be printed too, the simplest way is to provide an empty data source, containing a single empty record.
