[NullPointerException while using HtmlComponent (.jasper)]

Hi,

i am using a jboss application server and the htmlcomponent.jar is in the lib directory of my project. When it is missing i would expect class not found but no null pointer exception. Further on, when i compile it at runtime, it works well. Just the precompiled version by Jaspersoft Studio is not working.

[NullPointerException while using HtmlComponent (.jasper)]

 

Hello everybody,

i am facing a NullPointerException with JasperReports and htmlComponent for quite a while now and i have no idea whats the problem.

I have a simple report with standard htmlcomponent (standard "HTML paragraph" content directly from palette). When i use the .jasper file and

 jasperPrint = JasperFillManager.fillReport( .jasper )

it throws a NullPointerException in HtmlComponentFill

when i use the jrxml of the same report instead of the .jasper and compile it with

    JasperDesign design = JRXmlLoader.load(".jrxml"));
    return JasperCompileManager.compileReport(design);

it is working well. When i remove the htmlComponent from report and compile it (in jaspersoft studio) the .jasper is working fine.

I would be glad to hear your ideas about this

Max
