gradle-jasperreports's Issues

Question about compiling with a custom expression function

I've followed the following tutorial and have no problem compiling a .jasper file in the Jaspersoft Studio. https://community.jaspersoft.com/wiki/jaspersoft-studio-expression-editor-how-extend-it-and-contribute-your-own-functions-part-2-0

I've defined a custom function and now I'm moving the project to Intellij. I'm using your plugin to compile the jasper file. But running into errors that my function is not recognized. Any information in how to go ahead with this? I've tried adding jasperreport-functions as dependency, but no help. Any ideas?

Prevent report compilation from creating icon for Gradle daemon on MacOS dock

When the report compilation runs, it exposes a Java icon on the MacOS dock. When using the gradle daemon, the icon will stay as long as the gradle daemon is alive.

The compilation needs to set the -Dapple.awt.UIElement=true on whatever process is being forked to do the compilation.

Setting the global export JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS="-Dapple.awt.UIElement=true" does fix the problem, but is probably not the best solution since some apps may want to be on the dock.

Classpath issues

I may be missing something silly here, but it looks like dependencies in the compile classpath are not used to execute the JasperCompileManager.

We are using some joda time classes in our reports, joda time is in the compile classpath, but we get the following sorts of errors:

Is this a known issue? I was able to work around it for now by adding the joda time dependency to the buildscript classpath:

buildScript {
  dependencies {
    classpath "joda-time:joda-time:2.3"
  }
}

Problem with dependency

Hi @gmazelier

This plugin is so cool. Are you still maintaining this? I have a problem with this plugin, got this error:

Could this because the outdated dependencies or some broken repository urls?

Plugin is not working anymore with Gradle 8

I do plan to upgrade to Gradle 8.

During the configuration step I get the following exception:

An exception occurred applying plugin request [id: 'com.github.gmazelier.jasperreports', version: '0.4']
> Failed to apply plugin 'com.github.gmazelier.jasperreports'.
   > Could not create task ':compileAllReports'.
      > Cannot use @TaskAction annotation on method JasperReportsCompile.execute() because interface org.gradle.api.tasks.incremental.IncrementalTaskInputs is not a valid parameter to an action method.

I have seen that IncrementalTaskInputs is deprecated in Version 7.6.1.

dependency issue

Hi,

i tried to use your plugin but i got:

Error:Could not find com.lowagie:itext:2.1.7.js2.
Searched in the following locations:
https://jcenter.bintray.com/com/lowagie/itext/2.1.7.js2/itext-2.1.7.js2.pom
https://jcenter.bintray.com/com/lowagie/itext/2.1.7.js2/itext-2.1.7.js2.jar
Required by:
:Netversys3:unspecified > com.github.gmazelier:jasperreports-gradle-plugin:0.1.0 > net.sf.jasperreports:jasperreports:5.2.0

in the jcenter repos there is no "2.1.7.js2" folder but only "2.1.7".

Plugin not correctly finding source/out directory for multi-project build

This is the work-around so that I could make my project work. Note that I had to be explicit with the build directory.

jasperreports {
  val packageDir = "org/naic/spl/gateway/reports"
  val myBuildDir = project(":gateway-jasper-reports").buildDir
  srcDir = file("$projectDir/src/main/jasperreports/$packageDir")
  tmpDir = file("$myBuildDir/jasperreports")
  outDir = file("$myBuildDir/classes/java/main/$packageDir")
  srcExt = ".jrxml"
  outExt = ".jasper"
  compiler = "net.sf.jasperreports.engine.design.JRJdtCompiler"
  keepJava = false
  validateXml = true
  verbose = false
  useRelativeOutDir = true
  classpath = files
}

classpath property not recognized

I tried the leaving untouched all of the default configuration property values, before I realized our classpath is not standard. So I tried replacing it, but I get:

No such property: classpath for class: com.github.gmazelier.plugins.JasperReportsExtension_Decorated

I even copy-pasted the default line on the project overview doc, and I get the same result.

Groovy language is not supported in report definition

Observed while reporting issue Classpath issues:

Change language in report definition from groovy to java to prevent the LinkageError or java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: groovyjarjarasm/asm/ClassWriter error if groovy-all in not added in the buildscript configuration. It's a known workaround, see this comment on SO for example.

Jasper report version

Is there a parameter to specify the jasper version?

Documentation: tmpDir, outdir should use doubles quotes

There is an error in the documentation:

tmpDir = file('${project.buildDir}/jasperreports')
outDir = file('${project.buildDir}/classes/main')

This will create a directory called ${project.buildDir} in the project's main dir.

Example should use double quotes to specify tmpDir and outDir, in order to support String interpolation, replacing ${project.buildDir} with its value:

tmpDir = file("${project.buildDir}/jasperreports")
outDir = file("${project.buildDir}/classes/main")
