How to pass several resultsets for single report using JasperReports?

Question

In my report I have a set of fields and two datasets. I want to execute three procedure at a time to run a report. First procedure for execute set of fields and remaining two procedure for datasets. I pass one resultset to execute a report is working fine. But I want to pass two more resultset from execute() and port() methods. Is it possible to pass multiple resultset using JRResultSetDataSource or any other option?

public ResultSet execute() throws ClassNotFoundException {
    Statement stmt;
    ResultSet resultset = null;
    Connection con = null;
    try {
        String selectstatement = "CALL P_Select_Salary2 ('2013-01-01', '2013-01-31', 1, 'Salary_OA')";
        Class.forName("com.mysql.jdbc.Driver");
        con = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/compliance?user=root&password=root");
        stmt = con.createStatement();
        resultset = stmt.executeQuery(selectstatement);

    } catch (SQLException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    } finally {
        close(con);
        close(resultset);
    }
    return resultset;
}

public ResultSet port() throws ClassNotFoundException {
    Statement stmt;
    ResultSet resultset = null;
    Connection con = null;
    try {
        String selectstatement = "CALL P_Select_Salary3 ('2013-01-01', '2013-01-31', 1, 'Salary')";
        Class.forName("com.mysql.jdbc.Driver");
        con = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/compliance?user=root&password=root");
        stmt = con.createStatement();
        resultset = stmt.executeQuery(selectstatement);

    } catch (SQLException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    } finally {
        close(con);
        close(resultset);
    }
    return resultset;
}

public void generateReport() {
    Connection connection = null;
    Statement stmt;
    ResultSet resultset = null;
    try {
        String selectstatement = "CALL P_Select_Salary ('2013-01-01', '2013-02-28', 1, 'Salary_Summary')";
        Class.forName("com.mysql.jdbc.Driver");
        connection = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/compliance?user=root&password=root");
        stmt = connection.createStatement();
        resultset = stmt.executeQuery(selectstatement);
        JRResultSetDataSource resultsetdatasource = new JRResultSetDataSource(resultset);
        String realpath = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getExternalContext().getRealPath("common/reports/wageslip.jasper");
        jasperprint = JasperFillManager.fillReport(realpath, new HashMap(), resultsetdatasource);
        HttpServletResponse httpservlet = (HttpServletResponse) FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getExternalContext().getResponse();
        httpservlet.addHeader("Content-disposition", "attachment;filename=wageslip.pdf");
        ServletOutputStream servletout = httpservlet.getOutputStream();
        JasperExportManager.exportReportToPdfStream(jasperprint, servletout);
        FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().responseComplete();
    } catch (net.sf.jasperreports.engine.JRException JRexception) {
        logger.info("JRException Exception" + JRexception.getMessage());
        JsfUtil.addErrorMessage("No Datas between FromDate and ToDate");
    } catch (Exception e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    } finally {
        close(connection);
        close(resultset);
    }
}

Answer 1

You can send as many resultsets as you want in the parameters map.

Map reportParams = new HashMap(); reportParams.put("ds1", new JRBeanCollectionDataSource(beanCollection1)); reportParams.put("ds2", new JRBeanCollectionDataSource(beanCollection2));

JasperPrint jrprint = JasperFillManager.fillReport(jasperReport,reportParams, new JREmptyDataSource());

Make sure to declare the parameters in the report with the same names (ds1, ds2), and set the ParameterClass as

net.sf.jasperreports.engine.data.JRBeanCollectionDataSource

Now you can retrieve them with $P{ds1},$P{ds2} and so on. You haven't specified what you need them for, but you can do practically anything with the parameters, like set one of them of the datasource of a table etc.

Edited after comments :

I have a list component, to which I set Connection/Datasource Expression=$P{list1} , where $P{list1} is a parameter of type net.sf.jasperreports.engine.JRResultSetDataSource .

My list component will look like this:

<jr:list xmlns:jr="http://jasperreports.sourceforge.net/jasperreports/components" xsi:schemaLocation="http://jasperreports.sourceforge.net/jasperreports/components http://jasperreports.sourceforge.net/xsd/components.xsd" printOrder="Vertical">
                    <datasetRun subDataset="dataset1">
                        <dataSourceExpression><![CDATA[$P{ds1}]]></dataSourceExpression>
                    </datasetRun>
                    <jr:listContents height="66" width="400">
                        <textField>
                            <reportElement x="10" y="10" width="100" height="20"/>
                            <textElement/>
                            <textFieldExpression><![CDATA[$F{empname}]]></textFieldExpression>
                        </textField>
                    </jr:listContents>
                </jr:list>

As you can see, I have the element Dataset1 is the dataset added automatically in the report when you added the list component (if you use iReport for the design). Now, under dataset1 (which, as I said, is a subdataset, so it allows parameters, fields, variables), I declare the fields:

<subDataset name="dataset1">
        <field name="empno" class="java.lang.Integer"/>
        <field name="empname" class="java.lang.String"/>
    </subDataset>

That's it. I have tried this exact code, works for me.
