'attribute deprecated' warnings

alchavez · January 24, 2008

Hello,

The application running jasper reports is generating a ton of warnings when a report is run, saying that many of the attributes are deprecated (see below for detailed error).

My question is, is there a good way (preferably in iReport 2.0.3 / 2.0.4) to update the reports to help prevent these warnings. I'd like to be able to update the reports to no longer use the 'deprecated' attributes.

Many Thanks,

alchavez

Hello alchavez,

that's a good question:

I've also updated to the new JasperReports version and now getting these error messages. We've got about 20 reports here I would like to update so that no warnings are displayed anymore. Is there an easy way to do this? How to use these "<pen>" tags in iReport?

Thanks in advance for any ideas

Andreas

Hello,

I have written a little script that converts a .jrxml file to the newest version, such that no deprecated warning are printed anymore. The changes are inspired by the changes that are made automatically by the jasperreports xml reader.

I am hesitating to use it myself at the moment, because it looks like the iReport is not ready to use these new constructs. See http://www.jasperforge.org/index.php?option=com_joomlaboard&Itemid=215&func=view&id=35677&catid=9

for a topic with title 'pen nested elements in iReport 2.0.4' on this forum.

Unzip the attached file and run the script with a python interpreter.

Bart.
