Built-in functions TODAY and DATEFORMAT(Date & Time) are not working anymore with Jaspersoft Studio 6.0.0

[georg.schmiditdesign.de]

In Jaspersoft Studio 5.6.1, I had been using the Built-in function TODAY and DATEFORMAT (Date & Time) in an expression:

DATEFORMAT(TODAY(),"MMMM yyyy")

In Jaspersoft Studio 6.0.0, this is not working anymore. When opening the Preview, I get the following error message:

net.sf.jasperreports.engine.JRException: Errors were encountered when compiling report expressions class file:

1. net.sf.jasperreports.functions.standard.DateTimeFunctions cannot be resolved to a type

        return getFunctionSupport(net.sf.jasperreports.functions.standard.DateTimeFunctions.class).TODAY();

                                  <------------------------------------------------------->

2. net.sf.jasperreports.functions.standard.DateTimeFunctions cannot be resolved to a type

        return getFunctionSupport(net.sf.jasperreports.functions.standard.DateTimeFunctions.class).DATEFORMAT(arg0, arg1);

                                  <------------------------------------------------------->

Someone posted this today - they deleted their projects in Studio and then restarted it and started working fine...can u try this? Seems like an upgrade issue

Somehow, it worked for me after creating a new project and restarting the studio...

Thanks you very much for your help!

It just also worked by just restarting the Studio, without even creating a new project.

It only did not work after the first use of the function in an expression.
