Calling Jasper Report with no data source

2004-05-24 10:45

Can anyone tell me how to call a report without using a datasource? I have a static report, compiled to a .jasper file and when I call it, the pdf comes back empty. When I run it in iReport with no datasource, it works fine. How do I get Jasper to call it with no data source?

Try something like :

 

Assuming an already compiled report object called jdReport.

 

JasperPrint jdPrintOut = null;

HashMap parameters = new HashMap();

JRDataSource ds = new JREmptyDataSource();

 

jdPrintOut = JasperFillManager.fillReport(jdReport, parameters, ds);

 

Then put view it.

Hope it helps.
