ireport & empty datasources & preview with subrepo

Recommended Posts

Hi all,

 

I have a small problem with previewing an report including subreports using an empty datasource.

 

When I click the preview button with the hint text "Execute (empty data source)" I could see always the master report with null values but never the subreports.

 

Is that possible, otherwhise we could not see the look and feel of the whole report using that feature.

 

best regards

Hi,

 

you can create a new connection under menu option "Data - Connection/Data Sources" choosing "Empty data source". It will be asked the name and the number of (imaginary) records.

 

After this, you go on the "connection datasource expression" and put the internal parameter that corresponds to the master report's datasource.

 

Well, this may works. Good luck!

 

fsaa.
