field not found when compiling JRXML

[david.eaton]

I'm using iReportDesigner 5.5.0, and was making a test JRXML. I added a text field with a value of $F{pricing_date} and added "pricing_date" to the list of "fields" on the Report Inspector panel (no properties or description set for the field).

The resulting JRXML has the "pricing_date" field defined:

<field name="pricing_date" class="java.lang.String"/>

<field name="pricing_date" class="java.lang.String"/>[/code]

And it has a text field with $F{pricing_date} as expected:

<textFieldExpression><![CDATA[$F{pricing_date}]]></textFieldExpression>

<textFieldExpression><![CDATA[$F{pricing_date}]]></textFieldExpression>[/code]

But... I get the error "Field not found : pricing_date" within iReport Designer, and I get the same error during compilation.

I've compared this to other JRXML files within the samples provided, and it seems to match... what am I missing? Is there a setting somewhere to recognize field definitions?

You have multiple queries firing from the same report? ?

Attach your jrxml file. It's difficult to answer your question without it.

Found the issue, I had declared the fields at the root level of the report rather in the specific table I was trying to use them in.

Great that you've found the solution! Wouldn't have thought about that from just looking at your original question. :-)
