Hi, I am trying to do interactivity/drill down in between charts which are Chart Pro components. Previously we were using the JFree chart for as charting components. But now we have migrated to Fusion Chart based components. For interactivity in JFree Chart , I used to set hyperlink tag in the JRXML and used to pass parameters to subreport which is another charting component and used to render itself depending upon the parameter. I dont know whats the procedure to do the same interactivity in Chart Pro components. So what I tried is; I created a 2D piechart usign chart pro. then I set the fc:hyperlink tag in the 2DPiechart properties. and then created a subreport with a BarChart in it. and created parameters on both the charts/reports. So then I tried running the sample but whats happeing is it runs the sample perfectly but intectivity has got some problem... the Slicing mode has disappeared in Piechart..and if I click on any where on the chart it passes same parameter to sub report...its not able to identify separate pieces of pie chart.... Everything in here we are doing programmatically. i.e. from Java we create report and run from there only...and the report is exported as HTML..... Please help me on this.. Is interactivty in between Fusion Chart based component different than that of JFreeCharts?? If yes please guide me to correct the procedure.. Please help us we are already behind our schedule because of the license issue that had occured due to Packaging and shifting bug.... Regards, Gaurav. Post Edited by gauravpatil at 10/26/2009 08:21

Hi, The 2nd and 5th Reply to this Thread will help you to proceed. Due to these replies our application is able to find the license file. Please note that in orde to recognize the license by the WEB Application you need to rename it to jasperreports.license and put the license in classpath. But still we havent found the complete solution for the problem.Now our application is able to find the license file but a exception is being thrown saying "the License is in Invalid state".. JasperTeam says that there must be some problem with the license. So they are working on it. But this need not to be the case with you. Your license might be ok, just it needs to be placed in proper location. Please confirm with that what excatly is your problem. If it is just the application not being able to find the license file i.e. "License not found at jasperreports.license" then 2nd and 5th reply to the Thread will help you for sure. If its throwing the exception saying "License is in invalid state" then you might need to contact JasperSoft Team. Regards, Gaurav.

Hi Vadim, By any chance can we talk to you guys directly may be on chat/skype or telephone? Because this kind of communication is wasting our time. Your replies are really helping but it not saving our time. We put our query in our day time and as our timezones are not same, we have wait for your reply till you get back to work. So if possible please provide us your skype id and your availablity time so that we can communicate directly and finish this issue as early as possible. May be you can try to be available in our work time or we will wait for you till you get back to work. We are located at Pune,India. This will help you to decide meeting time Thanks and Regards, Gaurav Patil Extentia IT.

Hi Vadim, Thanks for your explanation. It really helped. About license:- When we got the setup and license for the developer edition. Firstly we wanted to explore the package to check wats new int there. So we installed iReports Pro 3.6 and noticed that the edition is evaluation version. So we installed the Commercial license. Then we created few reports with the iReport and ran them through iReports only. It ran perfectly. we were able to see the flash based chartings. Next, we decided to created a report through iReports and then run it through a java based sample Web application. Because directly trying from our application will lead to many changes. So decided to test it with a sample application. And the rest you already know what happened. The application was not able to find the license. Then you helped saying where exactly to put the license file. The license file which we received has name like JRPro.license. As application is demanding for jasperreports.license file, I renamed the file for jasperreports.license. Then the application was able to find license and now its saying the license is in invalid state. So do you wanna say that when we used our license for iReports Pro 3.6 to convert it from evaluation version to Commercial one, It got changed?? And its of no use now??. If so please help us on that too. Tell us what can be done next. Regards, Gaurav Patil. gaurav.patil@extentia.com

In continuation of previous reply..... we tried to run the application without the SWFs and properties files to check whether its able to access the license. And It did access the license but a new exception came as given below... can you explain why did it come?

HI Vadim, Thanks for your quick reply. It really helped us. We have few more question related to your reply. We have under stood the following steps completely "-jasperreports.license is put to location where you have the classes, in the root package. -JR Pro JAR files where you have your JAR files in your app" we also understood the Third step but partly....i.e. "And you need to specify the URL for the SWF files using 3 config props: com.jaspersoft.jasperreports.fusion.maps.base.swf.url com.jaspersoft.jasperreports.fusion.charts.base.swf.url com.jaspersoft.jasperreports.fusion.widgets.base.swf.url"Can you please shed some light on the props files.?.. where exactly should we create and keep Properties file in application? it would be great, If you can tell this step in detail. Also it would be great if you can attach this properties file to reply and specify where exactly it needed to deployed/placed. /tools/fckeditor/editor/images/smiley/msn/regular_smile.gif Also how will our application will come to know about this properties file as we are just creating the file and not making any entry in code or web.xml???? We have found out the SWFs under installation directory of iReportPro.So no issue finding them and placing them under Web app folder. Thanks in advance, Regards, Gaurav

Hi, I have started working with the new latest version of iReport Pro 3.6. However, I have faced a weird issue with controls like ellipse and tilted line- The same issue existed in the older version 3.5 also. Using iReport Professional 3.6.0, when I create a report having an ellipse or a line tilted at an angle, the internal preview displays just fine. The PDF preview is also perfect. The problem lies with the html preview. Here the ellipse is displayed as a rectangle and the tilted line becomes a straight line. For your reference I have attached the jrxml, PDF and html files generated for the report. (For easy understanding I have renamed the report1.jrxml as report1_pdf.jrxml and report1_html.jrxml for both scenarios.) Your inputs will be greatly appreciated since I have already spent a lot of time researching on this issue with version 3.5. I am sorry, I am bombarding you with so many questions, but I guess those are very important to us to proceed and I hope you will understand. /tools/fckeditor/editor/images/smiley/msn/regular_smile.gif Thanks in advance.

Hi, I have come across few more queries as follows:- Files which we got on purchasing the Professional Edition’s Developer license are: 1. getting-started-flash-charting.pdf 2. iReport-Professional-3.6.0.tar.gz 3. iReport-Professional-3.6.0.zip 4. iReport-Professional-3.6.0-windows-installer.exe 5. iReport-Ultimate-Guide-3.pdf 6. JasperReports-Ultimate-Guide-3.pdf 7. JRPro.license Q1. We want to know that, what all these files are for? We know about license file, pdfs and the executable. But we don’t know about the zips provided. Does zip contain source code for iReport Professional 3.6? If so where is the source code for Jasper Report Professional 3.6? Q2. I was referring to iReport-Professional-3.6.0.zip and I came across release notes in file named as releaseNotes-3.6.0.txt. I am herewith attaching the file for your reference. So in that file there is Installation Notes. In there they say that: “2a. Building JasperReports JasperReports Professional and Developer editions are a set of JAR files and other related resource files that bring additional functionality to the JasperReports Community Edition reporting library. This package contains a copy of the JasperReports Community Edition source files together with the source files that make up the JasperReports Professional and Developer editions.” So we would like to know about the package. What package exactly you are referring to. Because we haven’t got any “package which contains a copy of JasperReports Community Edition source files together with the source files that make up the JasperReports Professional and Developer editions”. Also we would like to know about the installation procedures mentioned under the “2a. Building JasperReports” heading. Because all the time its talking about installation of JasperReport and its root directory. But we just have got iReport Professional Edition 3.6. AND more like that can be found under next header “2b. Installing JasperReports” “2b. Installing JasperReports All the JAR files that make up JasperReports can be built by following the steps above. But a copy of all those files can also be found for your convenience under the /lib directory of the current distribution package.” Again /lib directory of distribution package is referred. It would be great if you could provide some light on these things as we need to use the binaries of Jasper Report Professional 3.6 in our Java web application. So giving a brief: We are already using the JFreeCharts in our application, but now after new JasperReport Pro 3.6 release we have decided to migrate to Flash based Charting and Map components i.e. Chart Pro and Map Pro. So please guide us to use libraries (which all libraries need to be used in application) and our purchased Developer License. I couldn’t find any information related to this on the forums suggested by Mr. Jim Wong. I am here with attaching the release note which I was talking about. Thank in advance.

Hi, I am a software developer. Our Client has purchased a developer edition of Jasper Report Professional 3.6 and its order id is JSOFT-200910010951-344077. Before using the JR 3.6 we were using JR 3.5.1 and we were working on the charting using Jasper Report. So in that we used to create the report on the fly and then compile it and then running it. But as JR 3.6 is providing Flash based charting components, we have decided to use them. But when we downloaded the JR Pro 3.6, we have got just iReport Pro 3.6. and it contains few libraries related to Fusion chart and Licensing. And I tried using those libraries directly in our application but it doesn’t seem to be working. I have also changed the jasperreports-3.5.1.jar to jasperreports-3.6.0.jar. Then I created a report having a “ChartPro” (The Fusion Chart component) component in it. And I tried to run this report using my Java class. My java class loads and then compiles the report and in the end, it runs the report. So I wanted to know that, is this procedure fine with the new JasperReport Professional3.6? And if yes then which libraries should I include in my classpath? Please HELP US OUT. We are totally stuck over here and as we have purchased the License, we seek guaranted help from you guys :) We contacted JasperSoft sales team and they have told us to contact JasperForge people. If you want I can forward you all mails. please provide me with your email ID. Also when I ran the report, I got following error on server console. This might help you to get my process status:- Code: Post Edited by gauravpatil at 10/08/2009 11:45
