Jasper jrxml will not compile within JBoss

[heffingtond]

Hi. I have developed some utility methods to render a PDF from data objects contained in my web application. The web app is running in the JBoss container. I have tested the code outside the JBoss environment and it works fine. However, when I attempt to integrate the code in my web app, the jrxml fails to compile. This is the same jrxml that compiles outside JBoss. A portion of the stack trace is attached to this message. Any ideas why the jrxml would fail to compile under JBoss with a null pointer exception?
