Relative Dates - DateRange class

[samhast]

I trying to use the DateRange parameter. I followed the instructions from the iReport PDF. That's my code:

I have an error when I run the report:

I am having the same problem. Anyone?

Hi, I solved the problem.

I changed the default expression from new DateRangeBuilder("DAY-1").toDateRange() to new net.sf.jasperreports.types.date.DateRangeBuilder("DAY-1").toDateRange()

Reposting aiklamha1 solution as an answer:

Just change the default expression from new DateRangeBuilder("DAY-1").toDateRange() to new net.sf.jasperreports.types.date.DateRangeBuilder("DAY-1").toDateRange()

Note:

Remember that when using this option the parameter class has to be set to DateRange (net.sf.jasperreports.types.date.DateRange). And this parameters are not date (java.util.dates) but ranges, so if you need to print (show) them in your report in a text field and use the patterns; you can use the getStart() or getEnd() methods.
for example:

 

new net.sf.jasperreports.types.date.DateRangeBuilder("MONTH").toDateRange()

$P{dateto}.getStart()

Check in the iReport Ultimate Guide Chapter 6.2.4 (http://community.jaspersoft.com/documentation) for a full example.

Now it works! thanks!

 

I have just one question, now my parameter have a default value expression:

new net.sf.jasperreports.types.date.DateRangeBuilder("MONTH").toDateRange()

Is it possible to replace "MONTH" with a parameter ? For example the user select in a list last month or last week and the value changes..

Is that possible?
