Error when JasperCompileManager.compileReport(jasperDesign)

[xujin_helen]

Hi,

I am using Eclipse Helios with Jaspersoft Studio 1.1.1. I was able to create a report and pull data from Java Bean with Bean Factory. When preview, it successfully show data in the report (only two String fields). Also I noticed that it will compile when you go to preview tab and click run the report.

However, when I use Java to compile and generate report, first it throws "Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: "; if I include groovy-all-1.7.5.jar in the library, it throws below exception. I searched this forum, and one discussion (http://community.jaspersoft.com/questions/539433/netsfjasperreportsenginejrexception-errors-were-encountered-when-compiling-report) seems has similar problem as mine. However, my report only include two String fields (in Java  Bean, they are String also). I also attach my source code here.

 

Errors were encountered when compiling report expressions class file:

org.codehaus.groovy.control.MultipleCompilationErrorsException

Hi, 
the missing classes are related to the new functions library introduced for the new expression library.
Please have a look at the following issue in the tracker: #5771.

Summarizing, you should include the needed jars if you make use of the functions in one or more of your expressions.
However as far as I can understand you don't use them. So for now when you compile the report via Java (outside JSS) remove the static imports from jrxml.
So this rows:

    <import value="static net.sf.jasperreports.expressions.functions.LogicalFunctions.*"/>
    <import value="static net.sf.jasperreports.expressions.functions.TextFunctions.*"/>
    <import value="static net.sf.jasperreports.expressions.functions.MathFunctions.*"/>
    <import value="static net.sf.jasperreports.expressions.functions.DateTimeFunctions.*"/>

Starting from the next release, Jaspersoft Studio 1.1.2, there will be a flag to add/remove these static imports when saving the JRXML available in the JSS preference page. 

Best regards,
Massimo.

Thanks, it works after removing those import.
