writing condition expression

[pioppogatto]

Hello I'd like to have a step by step help to write a conditon expression in order to change a color af a field in my report.

I added a conditional style to my report, what I need now is to write the condition expression.

Java is the language property of my report.

My field is a java.lang.String type and can assume two different values "Ok!" and "No good"

The field is included in the details so that I can have a report like this

my_field_label

-----------------------

1 Ok!

2 Ok!

3 No good

What I need is to create the conditional style and if the value in the field is "Ok!" print the field with a green color if it's "No good" the color should be red.

Hi, condition expression:

"Ok!".equals($F{my_field_label}) ? true : false

=> green style

"No good".equals($F{my_field_label}) ? true : false

=> red style

Cheers, Thomas
