jlepileo Posted April 10, 2019 Share Posted April 10, 2019 Team,Currently I'm using Jasper reports 6.0.1 and iText 5.5.0. I need to move to Jasper 6.7.0 but I'm not sure if this is compatible with my current iText version.Is there somebody that can help me with this query? Thank you!

hozawa Posted April 10, 2019 Share Posted April 10, 2019 JasperReports is using a customized version of earlier version of itext so package and class names are different from recent version of itext. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlepileo Posted April 10, 2019 Author Share Posted April 10, 2019 So, Jasper is coming with its own version of iText, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution hozawa Posted April 11, 2019 Solution Share Posted April 11, 2019 Yes. Further info on itext licensing.https://community.jaspersoft.com/wiki/issue-concerning-itext-licensing-tibco-jaspersoftJaspersoft in earlier 6.x version had a license agreement with iText to bundle itext 5.x, but it ended when Jaspersoft were bought out. So they reverted back to itext 2.1.7 based customized version. iText changed some package and class names in 5.x when they became corporate.

nauj911 Posted October 1, 2019 Share Posted October 1, 2019 Hi, it's fine if it's your corporate policy, but I don't understand why they don't change the name of the library and add it to Jasper's package, so there's no name problem with itext 5 or higher if we're using both libraries in the same projectThank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
