Is extending to the "JRXmlDataSource.class" in our custom datasource allowed

[tuspatil]

Hi Team,

We want to create the custom XML datasource by inheriting the jasper's JRXmlDataSource datasource.

Can you please let us know, is extending "JRXmlDataSource" class is supported?

Thanks,

Tushar

Hi

Check the code for JRXmlDataSource at below Github location.

https://github.com/TIBCOSoftware/jasperreports/blob/master/jasperreports/src/net/sf/jasperreports/engine/data/JRXmlDataSource.java

You can extend AbstractXmlDataSource interface from which JRXmlDataSource extends if you want to customize a data source. Yes you can extend functionality of JRXmlDataSource as long as you can follow the licensing requirements of this library.
