DATA MISSING IN LIST CONTENTS WHEN EXPORTED AS HTML

[pasose2675]

Hi, I have a list of objects let's say countries list, Each country object has id and list of cities. I'm passing the countries list as datasource and using subDataset to traverse the inner list. This is working fine with pdf export. But in html export the list contents data is missing. I've added a detail band above the list contents with displaying id and a footer.

The id is coming and the footer is also coming and the space the list contents might take is also there but the data is not showing up. Am I missing something, Please Help.

I'm using this <dependency> <groupId>net.sf.jasperreports</groupId> <artifactId>jasperreports</artifactId> <version>6.19.1</version> </dependency> for report generation.

This is my .jrxml

The generation method - 

jasperReport = JasperCompileManager.compileReport(inputStream);

Map<String, Object> parameters = new HashMap<>();

Collection<BeanWithList> coll = new ArrayList<BeanWithList>();

coll.add(new BeanWithList(Arrays.asList("London", "Paris"), 1));

coll.add(new BeanWithList(Arrays.asList("London", "Madrid", "Moscow"), 2));

coll.add(new BeanWithList(Arrays.asList("Rome"), 3));

JRDataSource dataSource = new JRBeanCollectionDataSource(coll);

JasperPrint jasperPrint = JasperFillManager.fillReport(jasperReport, parameters, dataSource);

OutputStream outputStream = encryptFile(fileName, true);

export(extension, jasperPrint, outputStream, fileName);

outputStream.close();

and the Export method -

if (extension.equals(".html")) {

HtmlExporter exporter = new HtmlExporter();

exporter.setExporterInput(new SimpleExporterInput(jasperPrint));

exporter.setExporterOutput(new SimpleHtmlExporterOutput(outputStream));

exporter.exportReport();

}

I want it to look something like this

Your JRXML and data binding seems to have some issues. If you are testing out this functionality, I would suggest you to create simpler example. There is no need to repeat the Static text for each time, rather you can create a textField with concatenated text for "Name " + $F{id} to have Id displayed for each city name.

Please refer to below two examples. I don't see any issue with your HtmlExporter code, as you are creating Input and Output streams fine. 

You can also try with JasperExportManager.exportReportToHtmlFile method.
