Distinguish the output format in jrxml

[jang888]

 Hi,

Is there anyway that I can distinguish the output format (xls, pdf, csv,..) in jrxml. I need to apply different pattern for each output format.

 

 

Thank you for your help.

 

Code:

<textField isStretchWithOverflow="true" isBlankWhenNull="true"><reportElement key="textField" style="detail" x="1290" y="0" width="90" height="18" stretchType="RelativeToTallestObject"><printWhenExpression>new Boolean({OUTPUT_FORMAT}.equals("EXCEL"))</printWhenExpression></reportElement><textFieldExpression class="java.lang.Double"><![CDATA[new DecimalFormat("#,##0.0000")).format($F{test}]]></textFieldExpression></textField>  <textField isStretchWithOverflow="true" isBlankWhenNull="true"><reportElement key="textField" style="detail" x="1290" y="0" width="90" height="18" stretchType="RelativeToTallestObject"><printWhenExpression>new Boolean({OUTPUT_FORMAT}.equals("PDF"))</printWhenExpression></reportElement><textFieldExpression class="java.lang.Double"><![CDATA[new DecimalFormat("#,##0.00")).format($F{test}]]></textFieldExpression></textField>

AFAIK you would need to customize the exporter (changing the source code). then you could e. g. add custom properties in the JRXML and handle these while exporting.

 

background: while generating the JRXML it gets filled with data and all expression get evaluated. The resulting object is JasperPrint which is the meta-output file. The standard customizer processes this file and writes it in the desired output format.

 

none of the standard exporters has the option to hide a specific element. You might want to raise a feature request in bugzilla for a export format specific property to hide elements.
