Passing REPORT_COUNT from Subreport to Masterrepor

[midrag]

Hi,

 

i am trying to pass the REPORT_COUNt variable from my subreport to my masterreport.

 

Code:

<returnValue subreportVariable="REPORT_COUNT" toVariable="Subreport_RecordCount"/>

 

My Subreport_RecordCount Variable is set to calculation=system

Code:

[code]<variable name="Subreport_RecordCount" class="java.lang.Integer" resetType="Report" calculation="System">

 

i use the variable in the detail field of the masterreport. my problem is, that the Subreport_RecordCount variable shows the Record count of the last Row, not of the (desired) acutal row (first row is shown as null).

 

Any ideas?

 

best regards,

Set evaluation="Band" for the text field in which you display the returned value.

 

HTH,

Hi Lucianc,

 

thx for your reply.

Setting evaluation to Band helped to show the variable correctly.

But what if i want to chart with the variable?

 

I have a Pie Chart in my Summary and want to Chart with the RECORD_COUNT Variable from my Subreport.

Is there any way telling the Chart to evaluat the Variable at the right time?

 

thx for your help!,

This is a known limitation of JasperReports.
