JR and Helper classes

[jeenajeena]

I wrote this class

 

public class MyUtil {

 

public static int getLastDayOfMonthXXX() {

return 10;

}

 

public static int getLastDayOfMonth() {

return 10;

}

 

}

 

 

I compiled it and added it's directory to classpath, throu iReport.

 

If I use this expression in a field

 

new Integer(MyUtil.getLastDayOfMonth())

 

everything is OK.

 

But if I use

 

new Integer(MyUtil.getLastDayOfMonthXXX())

 

I obtain the error:

 

Error filling print...Error evaluating expression :

source text : new Integer(MyUtil.getLastDayOfMonthXXX())

java.lang.NoSuchMethodError : MyUtil.getLastDayOfMonthXXX()I

 

Why?

What I'm trying to do is define a bunch of static methods to be used in fields' expressions. May be I'm using the wrong approach..

 

Any help will be very appreciated

Are you sure the compiled class contains the getLastDayOfMonthXXX() method? If so, try to restart iReport, maybe it caches classloaders (I'm not an iReport expert, you might want to try posting on the iReport forum).

You were right: everytime I change my Java code I have to restart iReport. It's a bit annoying but it works. Thank you!
