default value for Parameter type Date

How to declare a default value for a parameter whose parametr class is date

 

need the format for giving the default date value.

i have tried different combinations and it seems to like not taking the years above 2000.

Tejeshwar,

 

I'm not a Java programmer either, so I keep a few samples handy for things like this. Try these 2 samples of default date values:

 

new java.util.Date() // gives the current date

new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd").parse("2008-01-01")

If you want to do so in the jrxml, try this:

 

 

<parameter name="RequestDate" isForPrompting="false" class="java.util.Date">

<defaultValueExpression ><![CDATA[new java.util.Date(97, 5, 1)]]>

</defaultValueExpression>

</parameter>

 

it represents 06-01-1997
