Building a JasperPrint obj with Java

[careysb]

I'm trying to create a report (JasperPrint) heirarchy using Java. I'm creating a piece of text (JRPrintText) and inserting that inside a frame (JRBasePrintFrame) and inserting that in a page (JRPrintPage), and finally, inserting that inside the report (JasperPrint). This mostly works. The problem that I'm running into is that the text will not wrap and stretch the frame, which is what I thought frames were used for. After poking around in the Jasper source code for a while, it appears that somewhere along the line I need to make used of one or more

of the 'filler' classes. The fillers seem to be the only place that the 'stretch' is calculated. However, I haven't been able to figure out how to connect the fillers to the report objects.

 

Has anyone had experience with this?
