newbie: XML Data source Part 2

[mark5009]

Okay .. I worked out how to get fields (thanks, guys). Seem like everything got locked up and a complete restart managed to make things happen the way they should (I can get fields). :)

 

So, part B..

 

I add the fields to the report with some in the title section and some in the detail section. And when I run the report in 'Empty Data Source' mode it shows me my report, all shiny new, with 'null' where the fields will go.

 

Then when I run it against the XML data, I get a

 

'The document has no pages'

 

error. The XML has data, so again, I guess that I am doing something wrong. All of the field descriptions seem to be pointing to the right places.

 

Any thoughts of where to check next?

 

Many thanks

Hi!

If you post your JRXML file, I might be able to help you and correct it.

 

 

Another thing try using iReport 2.0.0.

Since I tried using iReport 2.0.1 and that seems to me full of bugs.My experience with iRpeort 2.0.1 is not good.(Sorry for the makers).

 

I have seen our 'newbie: XML data source and iReports' post.

try this to print just the userid.

Open your jrxml in iReport.

1)In menu click on view->Fields

2)Click on new

3)give field name as newUserId

4)select class as java.lang.String

5)This is IMP.In the 'Field Description' type 'UserId' without quotes

6)In Report Query '/FooReport/header' without quotes

7)Create a Text Field in the title band

8)Keep its Expression as $F{newUserId}

 

Hope this help.

If it doesn't just send your JRXML file.
