Abstract Method Error

[redwine]

I just downloaded and installed iReport 1.3.2

Version 1.3.1 was still installed in a different directory just to make sure that I could still use it if something goes wrong with 1.3.2 (as I did during previous version changes).

I encountered a problem when compiling newly created reports (error message below):

Compiling to file... C:Documents and SettingsviceMy Documentsworkspacesws_iReportjaspercriteria.jasper -> C:Program FilesJasperSoftiReport-1.3.2Criteria.java

 

Error compiling the report Java source.

------

 

Note that the message above is displayed after an attempt to compile a file (created in version 1.3.2) that still has no elements added to it (a fresh blank file).

The same message (except for the file name) is also displayed when I use version 1.3.2 to compile a file or an an exact copy of a file I created with version 1.3.1:

 

What could be the solution to this?

I'm thinking that something was changed in the configuration... but then again I'm guessing.

 

Operating environment:

MS Windows XP Pro

Version 2002

SP 2

 

Pentium 4

2.4 GHz

1 GB RAM

 

What should I check configurations/settings....???

Hi edwin,

 

I just created a bug for that problem:

 

http://www.jasperforge.org/sf/go/artf2191?nav=1

 

iReport 1.3.2 ships with an old groovy jar.

You need to replace the old groovy-all-1.0-beta-10.jar (in the lib directory) with the new groovy-all-1.0.jar available in JasperReports 1.3.2 or in the iReport SVN repository.

 

Thanks!

Giulio,

 

Thanks for the fast reply and response.

I'll try replacing the old groovy jar (beta) with the new one you specified.

Guilio,

 

Just as a feedback, I got the jar from: http://dist.codehaus.org/groovy/jars/ and tried it out... it does work.

 

One thing that I just noted is that unlike in previous iReport versions, 1.3.2 still gives an error if I try to compile .jrxml files with names beginning with numbers.

... I am quite sure I have openned files named as such... but then again I could be wrong.

 

I'll make sure that I post candidate bugs as soon as I encounter any... if only to help make iReport better.

Once again... thanks.

 

Hooooooo Rahhhhhhhhhh!
