Problem formating textfields

2003-02-03 12:26

I am having trouble getting my report to respond to the pattern I have set. I have included the code segment and resulting xml. Any suggestions appreciated. The pattern is stored in a database table and retrieved using a sql result set.

Thanks

Jessica

 

Code

//detail

textField = new JRDesignTextField();

 

if(cInfo.getColumnOrder() == cInfo.getColumnCount()){

textField.setWidth(cInfo.getColumnWidth() + columnInfo.getLastColumnPadding());

}else{

textField.setWidth(cInfo.getColumnWidth() + columnInfo.getColumnPadding());

}

 

textField.setHeight(10);

textField.setX(columnInfo.getXColumn());

textField.setY(1);

font.setReportFont(fonts[7]);

textField.setFont(font);

textField.setForecolor(color.BLACK);

textField.setPattern(cInfo.getAttribute().getFormat());

textField.setMode(textField.MODE_OPAQUE);

textField.setPositionType(textField.POSITION_TYPE_FIX_RELATIVE_TO_TOP);

 

if(cInfo.getAttribute().getJustification().equals("Left")){

textField.setTextAlignment(element.TEXT_ALIGN_LEFT);

}else{

textField.setTextAlignment(element.TEXT_ALIGN_RIGHT);

}

 

//set textField expression

JRDesignExpression expression = new JRDesignExpression();

 

expression.setText("$F{" + cInfo.getFieldName() + "}");

expression.setName(cInfo.getColumnName());

 

valueClass = getValueClassName(cInfo.getDataType());

expression.setValueClass(valueClass);

textField.setExpression(expression);

 

detailChildren.add(textField);
