Version 3.0.0 (release: 17.10.2024)

You can see the full list of issues with details in the milestones page.

This release has been tested with multiple versions of application servers

  • Tomcat9, Tomcat10, Weblogic 14, Weblogic 12, Wildfly 26.1, Glassfish 4.1

and Java versions

  • JDK 8, JDK 11, JDK 17, JDK 18

New features

  • #146 Upgrade libraries to JasperReports 7.0.1

Bug fixes

  • none

Changed behaviour

  • Existing reports will break! All existing reports need to be upgraded using JasperReportsStudio 7.0.x first.
    • You can do this with the following steps:
      • select your <report>.jrxml file in the Project Explorer pane
      • right-click on the file or on a directory. If you choose a directory, it will be applied recursively for all .jrxml files in all subdirectories
      • select JasperReports>Update JasperReports files
      • now, the selected .jrxml files will be upgraded to version 7 of JasperReports.
      • then, deploy all modified .jrxml files to the target system, i.e. your application server.
      • you actually don't even need to compile the .jrxml file into an .jasper file for deployment. It will be created automatically if it does not exist. It is safe to delete all .jasper files (if you have the .jrxml file in the directory)
  • All other changes are mainly affecting developers, the JasperReports development team changed from using Apache Ant and Apache Ivy to Maven. This makes the development on our side much easier and all artifacts can be taken directly from the Maven repository.
    • Also, using gradle with gretty for testing is currently not working and has been removed from the developer documentation. It is rather advised to test/debug directly from Eclipse.

Known issues

  • Please check the current list of open issues: https://github.com/daust/JasperReportsIntegration/issues.
  • For running the application on Tomcat10, you have to use jri-3.0.0-jasper-7.0.1-tomcat10.war instead of jri.war.
  • Should you run into errors while running the reports, it will be most likely due to not yet upgraded reports to the version 7.x syntax.

  • When contributing as a developer, the integration with eclipse still has issues, some libraries are included redundantly and are causing errors.

// copy web.xml file from JasperReportsIntegration.war file
java -jar ../lib/truezip-samples-7.7.10-jar-with-dependencies.jar cp ../webapp/JasperReportsIntegration.war/WEB-INF/web.xml web.xml

... now edit the web.xml file and modify the parameter oc.jasper.config.home: 

   	<!-- optionally define the oc.jasper.config.home --> 
 	<context-param>
   	<param-name>oc.jasper.config.home</param-name>
   	<param-value></param-value>
   	<!-- Examples: 
   	<param-value>/Users/daust/oc-jasper</param-value> 
   	<param-value>D:\\JasperReportsIntegration</param-value> 
   	-->
 	</context-param>
