[Solved] How to get reportElement properties

I set some properties on some elements in iReport. Then I tried to read the properties map of a reportElement in my Java Application, but it doesn´t work. The properties map is empty. Why?

Hi,

 

By default, not all the element properties defined in the report template are transfered into the generated document.

Only the ones that are having a specified prefix and are usually recognized as exporter hints, are transfered. This is specified in the jasperreports.properties file, where by default we find this:

 

# Properties to be transferred in the generated document
net.sf.jasperreports.print.transfer.export=net.sf.jasperreports.export
 

You can add similar lines to the jasperreports.properties file in order to make JR transfer additional properties, based on their prefix.

 

net.sf.jasperreports.print.transfer.<arbitrary_suffix>=[my.properties.suffix]

 

I hope this helps.

Teodor
