Scriptlet with void method

[caio_merotti]

Hello everyone,

Is there any way to call void methods in scriptlet classes?

for example, in my subreport I need to call a void method every time an item is printed in the PDF, so I can increase my app's steps using the method below in scriptlet class in java:

public void incrementStep() throws JRScriptletException { 	      getBean(ProcessCommand.class).incrementStep(this.getFieldValue(PROCESS_ID).toString()); 
}

When the method is called I get this error:

Type mismatch: cannot convert from void to Object\n                value = ((com.test.Scriptlet)parameter_REPORT_SCRIPTLET.getValue()).incrementStep()

The easiest solution is to change the method to return something (e.g. Object) and add a return null; statement at the end of the method.
