Resolving classes in JasperSoft Studio

[ukchucktown]

First let me state I'm not accustomed to the Eclipse environment. I do the majority of my development in IntelliJ. I'm trying to import legacy code my organization assumed responsibility that includes some Jasper reports. The project build is Maven so I imported the module's POM file into Eclipse (I installed the plugin in the latest version of Eclipse). I'm able to open the reports and edit them w/o issue. The problem is when I try to compile the reports it generates class not found exceptions during the compile process. I have no problems compiling the reports from the Maven build so the issue is dependency resolution in the plugin. Is there anything specific I need to do so Jasper can resolve the dependencies defined in the POM file?

Thanks, Grant

If the report is using some custom jar files, they need to be put in eclipse's build path. Right click on the project -> Build Path -> Configure Build Path. Under the Libraries tab, add all necessary jars by selecting "Add External JARs"
