Is there a tool available that can parse the JRXML files of a report library, for the purpose of analysing common Queries, Data Sources, and parameters?

When trying to understand a legacy report library, I would think it useful to have the ability to take copies of the JRXML for each report and the n analyse it using some script or tool.

Not confident in coding myself, though would make for an interesting project, I think.

Just wanted to see if there was an existing tool.

Thanks

it's just xml. you can open it in a text editor like notepad++. If you are on linux, you can cat it and redirect the output into anything.

Hi DireConseq,

You could download the Jaspersoft Studio and open the jrxml file. Using this, you can check/analyse the queries and input controls associated with a report/jrxml. Please see the below screenshot.
