Scriptlets in JasperServer

[zerglicious]

I have a report with a Scriptlet which works fine in IReport but is failing validation on JasperServer because JasperServer can't find the scriptlet class on the classpath. I built the JasperServer from the source so it will be easy enough to put the scriptlet class in the /WEB-INF/classes directory but I was trying to upload the scriptlet as a jar in the JasperServer console. Is this the proper procedure for reports with Scriptlets?

Yes, report scriptlets should be deployed into JasperServer report unit jar resources. You can see a working example in the /reports/samples/SalesByMonth report unit from the JS samples.

 could you explain how this works a little more, please?

In the SalesByMonth sample report i see this line:

scriptletClass="test.TestScriptlet"

as an attribute in the JasperReport tag. What is the significance of the "test." piece of the string?

Hi

I tried a lot to make Scriptlet working in iReport but no luck. Every time when i add jar to the classpath and run the report it shows nothing also no error. How do you make scriplet can you  explain me the steps for creating it in iReport.

It's the Java package to which the scriptlet class belongs.

Where can I find documentation concerning scriptlets?

Thanks,

 The sample reports are all well and good, but they tell nothing of where the scriptlets are supposed to go within JasperServer. In fact, i've found very little documentation in terms of how JasperServer works behind the scenes. I'm just looking for a directory structure type of view for the report templates, scriptlets, et. al.

You package the scriptlets as a JAR and put them in the JasperServer repository, not on the file system related to the WAR.

 

Then you add the scriptlet JAR as a "resource" to the report unit definition.

 

When you run the report, the scriptlet JAR is pulled from the repository and added to the server classpath temporarily.

already done! but when  run the repo on jasperserver i get a  "The report is empty." message!

in the other hand i run it on Ireport and get the report  ok!

some idea what is happening?

In the event of an empty datasource, in the report properties, the "when no data" property should be set to "all sections, no detail" or "No data section".
