Hi Rod,

If you create your two (or more!) jrxmls and then compile and fill them as normal. You will then have two JasperPrint objects.

 

The JRExporterParameter.JASPER_PRINT_LIST can then be set on the JRPdfExporter (or whatever other exporter). If you put your two reports in a java.util.List and pass them as the value of the JRExporterParameter.JASPER_PRINT_LIST you are done.

 

You then set your file, or FileOutputStream or whatever on the exporter and call exportReport();

Your two JasperPrints will be exported to the one stream/file/writer.

 

Good luck!

Thanks Russel,

the solution works, but i have to use deprecated method and class JasperManager.fillReport. But it works.

Is there a possibility to integrate two or more completely seperately filled reports into a single reportfile of type JasperPrint, that can be exported as one report?

Sergio,

Why do you have to use a deprecated method ? I'm not sure how you come by the JasperPrint objects (fill the reports) has any bearing on exporting them to the same file.

 

Dime_bag,

The method I have described above puts any number of unrelated JasperPrints into the same Output so that you can export them as one report. I do not know how to create one JasperPrint from multi JasperReports, why do you need to ?

 

Regards

 

Russell

"I do not know how to create one JasperPrint from multi JasperReports, why do you need to ?"

 

The reason I can think of is to have the pagenumber not started from 1 again for the second report, so it really looks like one report.

I wish I'd found the post about jasper list before coming up with the following code, but here goes:

My solution does not handle the page number reordering, since this combination step happens after the pages are run. This trick can be used to do all manner of whacky things though.
