[Relative path to image]

Ah, it doesn't work if the image is in a custom template that you've made since the path is relative to the report and not it's template. ( my template and my report are in different folders...)

 

If anybody knows a way, please tell me.

 

Thank you,

Nevermind haha,

Only had to erase the path till "\\blabla.gif" was left.

[Relative path to image]

Hi, I was wondering if it was possible to set a relative path to an image file which would always be in the same folder as the report.

Thank you for your answer,

[Report commenting]

Hi and thank you for your answer.

 

But where exactly would I be able to input text in the report properties? The only field that comes close to what I'm looking for is the "Report Name" that I can change...

 

I'm looking for any way to write a comment on a report, maybe something like the "Description" field of a parameter, a variable and a field where you can write whatever you want.

 

Thank you again for your help,

John

[Report commenting]

Hi, I was wondering if there was a way to leave a "comment" on a report. I'm trying to make some kind of  header in which I would write which version of iReport I'm using, my name, the date....

I tried commenting the xml, but it seems like it is regenerated everytime the report is saved, erasing the comments.

 

Thank you for your answer,

John

[How to compare date in database with current date]

Thanks a lot to you Matt for these precisions and the alternative way of solving this problem. You helped me, and I hope others too, to understand iReport a little bit better.

[How to compare date in database with current date]

I found the solution :

 

Integer.valueOf(

$F{aaaa}.before(new java.util.Date()) ? false : true

)

 

aaaa being the column filled with dates in my table.

[How to compare date in database with current date]

Hi, I read a lot on how to compare dates together but I still can't figure out how to solve my problem.

I have a column in my table filled with dates and I have to count how many  "dates in column" <= current date.

The format in the table is 'dd/mm/yyyy' and the type is DATE

==========================

My idea was to create a variable with "Calculation" set to "sum" and variable expression set to something like

Integer.valueOf( $F{table_date} <= sysdate ? 0 : 1)

but I haven't been able to use "sysdate" outside of the main report query and "<" doesn't seem to be accepted.

==========================

Thank you in advance for your help,

John
