I am trying to follow the tutorial Hello World Scriptlet Example by Sadakar Pochampalli.
After following all the instructions, once i try to compile and run the report i get the error below.
Help greatly appreciated!!
net.sf.jasperreports.engine.JRException: Errors were encountered when compiling report expressions class file:
1. com.sadakar.jasper.Test4 cannot be resolved to a type
value = ((com.sadakar.jasper.Test4)parameter_Hello_SCRIPTLET.getValue()).hello(); //$JR_EXPR_ID=8$
<---------------------->
2. com.sadakar.jasper.Test4 cannot be resolved to a type
value = ((com.sadakar.jasper.Test4)parameter_Hello_SCRIPTLET.getValue()).hello(); //$JR_EXPR_ID=8$

Theres a nice tutorial video on scriptlets "TIBCO Jaspersoft: Using Scriptlets inside TIBCO Jaspersoft Studio and JasperReports"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t9Hv6DrwrhQ&t=6s&index=1&list=PLRran9THV...
Maybe this can help you determine where it went wrong.
Thank you for the swift response.
I think the problem is configuring my jar files, and this particular tutorial doesn't cover that part.
If you have any good references for the configuration step I'd greatly appreciate that.
I remembered getting issues following this example too... whether or not its exactly this error but I think it was similar.
I believe there's a mistake in one of the steps..
3) Add Jasper Server jar file to Project Path
This step applies to the Java project.. The jar file mentioned is 'Jar File Name : jasperreports-pro-6.0.0.jar' but this is not right. It should be jasperreports-6.3.0.jar (for 6.3) or jasperreports-6.2.0.jar as per the screenshot in the following step.
As my Studio is not where the server is, I copied the jasperreports-6.3.0.jar from server and place it locally and load that in the project path.
Step 5 and 6a are important. Once you have exported your test.jar, step 6a should be done for "MyReports" not for the java project.
