If JasperReports is using the correct/specification way to find accessor methods (and that’s a big if—many frameworks just assume getters are prefixed with “get”) you can provide a BeanInfo class to specify the names of accessor methods. A BeanInfo class should be located in the same folder/package as the class it describes and be called [YourClassName]BeanInfo.java.
https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/java/beans/BeanInfo.html Here’s an example BeanInfo class for one of my entities. It returns a list that contains a PropertyDescriptor for each of the methods you want to describe. The arguments to the PropertyDescriptor constructor are the name of the property, the class containing the property, name of the getter method and name of the setter method. —————————————————————————— package is.ismus.model.auto; import java.beans.IntrospectionException; import java.beans.PropertyDescriptor; import java.beans.SimpleBeanInfo; import java.util.ArrayList; import java.util.List; public class _ModeBeanInfo extends SimpleBeanInfo { @Override public PropertyDescriptor[] getPropertyDescriptors() { try { List<PropertyDescriptor> list = new ArrayList<>(); list.add( new PropertyDescriptor( "creationDate", _Mode.class, "creationDate", "setCreationDate" ) ); list.add( new PropertyDescriptor( "englishName", _Mode.class, "englishName", "setEnglishName" ) ); PropertyDescriptor[] array = new PropertyDescriptor[list.size()]; array = list.toArray( array ); return array; } catch( IntrospectionException e ) { throw new RuntimeException( e ); } } } —————————————————————————— Cheers, - hugi > On 13. júl. 2016, at 11:46, Theodore Petrosky <[email protected]> wrote: > > I have been using Jasper Reports for a few years in my D2W apps.
