subreportExpression where does jasper look?

2004-05-05 14:08

Hi,

 

I was successful in using subreport as a Jasper object with fully qualified path and then passing it through parameters map.

 

Now, I have a case where I have to use multiple subreports and using the subreport as a string in subreport expression in the MasterReport.xml.

 

<subreportExpression class="java.lang.String">

<![CDATA["SubCategoriesSubReport.jasper"]]></subreportExpression>

 

My scriptlet class gets called successfully and loads the subcategories but I get an error

" Error Message: Could not load object from location : SubCategoriesSubReport.jasper"

 

My jasper files MasterReport.jasper and SubCategoriesSubReport.jasper are in the same directory. How does jasper understand to look for this file when used as a string in subreport expression? Please tell me how to fix this problem. I am stuck as I dont know where jasper is looking for the subreport jasper file.

 

Thanks

Vishy

I handled this problem by sending a parameter to the report that contained the directory path of the reports. Then I appended the subreport name to that parameter as the subreport expression.
