URGENT dynamique display of textelement

2003-11-04 07:26

Hello,

 

I'm working in an industrial projet in which we will, perhaps, use Jasper Report.

 

To be sure that the client accept Jasper Report as the solution for his project, we need to build quickly a prototype.

 

In this way, I need to display a textElement in fonction of the value of a Field.

For example, if $F{land} = "France" then display a text element with two price (Euro and Franc) else display only one price

 

 

 

Thanks for your answer

how about something like this:

 

<textFieldExpression class="java.lang.String">

( $F{country}.equals("FRANCE") ) ? "put a french string expression here" : " put non-french string expression here"

</textFieldExpression>

 

As you can see this is only a if/else construct. And for each expression in the conditional operator (?:) you may put a string cat expression or whatever as long as it 'equals' a String.
