Dynamic Report using multiple data

2006-02-14 05:56

I need to create a report where the number of columns is dynamic.

 

My situation is that i have a CSV file in entry that contains the informations to be printed in the report. And, I have the description of this file (Column header) in a table (SQL Request).

 

I have different files in entry, with different numbers of columns to be printed.

 

Exemple :

For the file "users.csv" i need to print 3 columns (Name - Phone Number - E-Mail)

For the file "computer.csv" i need to print 5 columns (Name - IPAddress - OS - Server(Y/N) - USER)

And ....

 

To simplify the developpments, i want to use the same Jasper Report for existing and futur files.

 

 

Sorry for my bad english.

 

Thank,

Michel

use the PrintWhen expression

so based on the field that changes u can show/hide it .

 

eg

printWhenExpression><![CDATA[new Boolean($P{REPORT_FOR}.equals("BILLING"))]]></printWhenExpression>
