Scriptlets in 0.3.0

2004-05-14 01:10

Hi

 

I have installed v 0.3.0 it is is looking very good. However I seem to be missing something when trying to use the new scriptlet editor. When use intenal sciptlets property is set I get a null pointer error when trying to save a file or compile. There is probbably something in the configuration settings that I have missed. Has anyone elsegot this to work as it would seem to be a most useful feature.

 

Regards (and thanks) Dave

The scriptlet support is still experimental.

Please check that a file called scriptlet_template.jav is in classpath.

Thanks for the help,

 

The file is in the source release but I could not find it in the binary zip. The code is saving ok now, however just another small question. Do I need to compile the scriptlet file ouside ireport as I can not find a class file for it?

 

Many regards Dave

iReport should compile it for you, but there is a problem: iReport has not yet a custom class loader and when a report is executed, the scriplet class loaded this time will never reloaded, even if modified... until iReport is restarted :-)

We need Scriptlets to handle DataSources, ex. filtering the result, for example by ColumnNameX.

 

We have downloaded the file called scriptlet_template.jav

and is in iReport classpath. It is a source code file, so

compiled it.

 

When we use the scriptlet editor, it creates a scriptlet file?

Ex: report_AScriptlet.***. Which would be the extension for the

scriptlet .java, .jav, .wsc?

It has to be compiled also? It should we saved in the save dir

that the .xml and .jasper reports?

 

TIA. Greetings,

the .jav is not a .java, but is a source used as template to create a new scriptlet named as the report (i.e. customers.jasper -> customerScriptlet.java).
