generic styles

[slow]

is there a way to make generic styles?

currently one style, when you define a rule, can be applied to a single field with the respective state.
if applied to another field, this field would inherit the rule of the defined style.
normally the rule is defined using values derived from datasource,
there is a way to capture the contents of the field itself in the definition?

something like
new Boolean (FIELD_VALUE.equals ( "something"))

where FIELD_VALUE would be something like the operator "this" in Java referred to the textfield it is applied to.

In this way the style will become generic and is applicable to all fields of a report, with no need to create
many rules on a styles, one for each field that must apply to.

thanks in advance
