Hi Teodor,it looks like this changes is breaking old compiled, i.e. *.jasper, Java reports that use the msg function.For example I have an jasper file compiled with JasperReports 6.2.2 and this reports includes a field with:msg($R{pageFooter}, $V{CURRENT_PAGE_NUMBER}, $V{PAGE_NUMBER})An since this is the compiled with language Java it is statically bound to the function signature:msg(Ljava/lang/String;Ljava/lang/Object;Ljava/lang/Object;)Ljava/lang/String;Till JasperReports Library version 6.10 this worked well.But with 6.12.1 this fails with:net.sf.jasperreports.engine.fill.JRExpressionEvalException: Error evaluating expression for source text: msg($R{pageFooter}, $V{CURRENT_PAGE_NUMBER}, $V{PAGE_NUMBER})... Stack trace ...Caused by: java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: Departments_1412358499713_8295.msg(Ljava/lang/String;Ljava/lang/Object;Ljava/lang/Object;)Ljava/lang/String; at Departments_1412358499713_8295.evaluate(Departments_1412358499713_8295:463) at net.sf.jasperreports.engine.fill.JREvaluator.evaluate(JREvaluator.java:259) ... 50 moreI guess it fails because the function definitions for explicitly one, two and three Object parameters were removed:https://github.com/TIBCOSoftware/jasperreports/commit/3092bb0b5609b385dc8144735243a1d1b438adb6Would it be a good idea to include them (again) so that older compiled reports still work?Regards,Michael
