BucketExpression class removed on Crosstabs in iReport 4

[chaddn]

Hello,

I'm currently using JasperServer 3.7.1.  I recently upgraded from iReport 3.7.6 to 4.0.2.  I have the compatibility in iReport set for version 3.7.1.  When I edit one of my existing crosstab reports using iReport 4.0.2 it removes the class attribute from all bucketExpression tags which then causes the report to error out when trying to run it in Jasperserver 3.7.1 (SaxParse error complaining about the missing class attribute).  I tried upgrading to iReport 4.5.0 and it does the same thing.

Prior to saving the file in iReport 4.x:  <bucketExpression class="java.lang.String">

After saving the file in iReport 4.x:  <bucketExpression>

Since JasperReports 3.7.1 seems to need the class attribute, shouldn't this be retained when I set the compatibility to JR 3.7.1?  Should I assume that JR 4.x doesn't require the class attribute and this won't be a problem when I update to JasperServer 4.x?

Thanks!

Chadd
