hi all

Can anyone tell me - when you create a new data adapter and save it

where exactly is that file stored? and is it called with an extent of jdbc??

i have asked this question in a rephrased manner before and I am staggered to NOBODY has bothered answering...

 

this is such a simple fundamental basic question and nobody cares enough to give me even a small pointer....

 

so much for community.... very disappointed...

When you create a data adapter in Studio via the New > Data Adapter, it is stored in the Studio "workspace" in the Data Adapters area under the Repository Explorer.

You can also create data adapters in a project in the workspace. You see them as XML files.

You can export these files from the workspace and have reports use them at run time without having to programmatically provide Data Source or Connection objects. The data adapter files can be referred to in the JRXML in properties like net.sf.jasperreports.data.adapter.

I've spent weeks to get the answer to this question, as I needed the settings myself as well.
Via Google, all I found was this question over and over again, but no helpful answer.

Finally found it myself - the data adapters are stored in the following location:

usr_rootJaspersoftWorkspace.metadata.pluginscom.jaspersoft.studiodataAdapters

Although the question is pretty old, the answer may come handy to others.
