How to specify Google Map API version in TIBCO JasperReports® Server

Issue Description

Google maps occasionally releases an update to their API, is there a way to control which version is used in TIBCO JasperReports^® Server ?

Resolution

Two javascript files need to be modified.

Per google's API, add a 'v' parameter to the maps.google.com urls in the files below.

For example for version 3.30, add v=3.30, like:

maps.google.com/maps/api/js?v=3.30

You need to modify a file within the jasperreports-.jar found in WEB-INFlib:

netsfjasperreportscomponentsmapresourcesrequirejasperreports-map.js

And in JasperReports^® Server modify:

optimized-scriptsbower_componentsbi-reportsrcbireportjiveviewGooglemapComponentView.js

When modifying optimized-scripts directory, always heed this:
