Could you explain me XML Data Source and Subreports example?

[ftkjba]

Hello all,

I want to create a report with a subreport with XML Data Source in Jaspersoft Studio. I was trying to copy example from the chapter XML Data Source and Subreports, but I have empty subreport area.

Could you explain me my mistake?

The listing of the files is shown below:
xml_addressbook.jrxml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            [/code]

Hello,

Try adding isRemoveLineWhenBlank="true"  in the report element of the subreport like this: 

<reportElement isRemoveLineWhenBlank="true" x="0" y="30" width="555" height="40" uuid="746e05bc-ff80-45b1-9093-762398715789">

Hope it helps.

Thank you for the answer.
I have added isRemoveLineWhenBlank attribute into xml_addressbook.jrxml --> detail --> subreport --> reportElement and after that I got the folowing result:

I think the report does not pass the data into the subreport that is why subreport has nothing to display.

1. Change structure node email xml like node hobbies

2. Use query // (not /) for subreport, for instance ((net.sf.jasperreports.engine.data.JRXmlDataSource) $P{REPORT_DATA_SOURCE}).subDataSource("//hobbies")

Thank sanbez for the answer.
I have done what you wrote at office place, and got the right number of rows, but the hobby field is empty in each row. I created "JasperReports project" in Eclipse with the Jaspersoft Studio 6.4.0 plugin at home. I added files described in the question and I had got the worked fine example. When my holiday will be finished I'm going to understand the difference between home and office environment. Thanks for the help.

Even I'm getting the same Blnak Screen when i tried to add the subreport. i have added the isRemoveLineWhenBlank="true" to my subreport element still it's not displaying the sub report.
