Subreport problem

2005-07-01 02:18

Hi,

I have a subreport and I must visualize only parameters. But if I don't use a datasource the subreport isn't visualized. How I can avoid to use a datasource?

Thanks

You can run with an empty datasource from iReport.

Also in the report propertyes window you can set it that when there's no data to print it anyway

Use "Use Connection Expression" or "Don't use Connection or Datasource" as SubReports DataSourceExpression.....

 

and within your subreport go to the report-properties and set

whenNoData to "All Sections no Detail".

 

Then your parameter should appear (if passed through)

Even if I set this options the parameters don't appear.

In which band did you placed your Parameters???? And are you sure that you pass your parameters really through (from outside to mastereport and from masterReport to Subreport --> use "$P{$P{REPORT_PARAMETERS_MAP} within the parameters map expression in the SubReportElement)

 

like the WhenNoData-Attributes "AllSectionsNoDetail" already says, all bands EXCEPT the DetailBand is printed.... therefore that you don't have any data, you should place your parameters in the title or whatever....

 

besides that you can also use "new JREmptyDataSource(1)" as DataSourceExpression in the SubReport-Element on MasterReportSide. So you do have an empty datasource with one dummy record. (no fields)

Thanks C-Box. My parameters were placed in DetailBand.
