Check my latest post about Integrate Charts into Jasper Reports. here i am using JPA (Java Persistence API) for accessing the Database. so i create the two entity ShoppingCart and Item. here ShoppingCart entity contain list of Item entities. then i am going to pass these objects to Jasper Report.

@Entity public class Item { @Id @GeneratedValue(strategy= GenerationType.AUTO) private long id; private String itemName; private float price; private int noOfUnits; //getters and setters }
Create Report now i am going create report. we can use iReport standalone or iReport Netbeans Plugin to create the report. first we need to create some fields in report. these fields are matched with ShoppingCart Bean property names and Data types also.

Now when u run the project its generate the report in PDF file format. now we integrate the sub report. so drag the sub-report component from palettes. then add the Item beans property as a fields names and correct data types.
2013 (2) 2012 (13) December (1) November (1) October (2) and data types itemName ==> java.lang.String price ==> java.lang.Float noOfUnits ==> java.lang.Integer once sub report is ready then compile the subreports. while create the subreport we passed the Empty Data Source. so now we need to change to listOfItems as a data source, we can't pass directly because its not accept List. so we need to wrap into the JRBeanCollectionDataSource Object. so in main report select the sub report and change the properties Connection Type ==> Use a datasource Expression DataSource Expression ==> new net.sf.jasperreports.engine.data.JRBeanCollectionDataSource($F{listOfItems}) September (2) June (2) Deploy the Java Web Application to Jelastic Paas C...

You Can Download this complete example from GitHub (or) google code . How to use
1. Change the properties in persistence.xml file, like db name, db hostname ,username and password. 2. Add necessary lib to class path like Hibernate libs, MySQL lib, Jasper Report lib. for simplicity in this zip contain war file under dist/ folder. so just extract and see all lib are located in WEB-INF/lib section. copy all files and add to to ur class path (Libraries ) 3. Create the jasperdb database in ur mysql server 4. First run the NewServlet , this servlet create necessary tables in ur database. and insert some sample rows to the table. 5. Finally run the index.xhtml file and generate the report.

Thanks a million boss, was stuck at the 'Connection Type ==> Use a datasource Expression DataSource Expression ==> new net.sf.jasperreports.engine.data.JRBeanCollectionDataSource($F{listOfItems})' point for quite a number of days. Now it works great.

but net.sf.jasperreports.engine.data.JRBeanCollectionDataSource is only accept Collection data types like List. so even u need to send single entity u need to wrap to List, then only u need to pass to it

Thank you very much. I am grateful to you for all your commitment helping us all. Sorry to bother you again by asking a question. Say the main report contain a Customer object instead of the firatName and surName. In that case how can we display the firstName and surName. Can we use a field like customer.firstName and customer.surName?

Yes, thats correct. u can use like F{customer.firstName} and $F{customer.surName} and make sure that customer filed datatype is Object.

Thank you for this great demo. It is a step further then the first version I saw, which did return an exception. This one isn't complaining about anything (no exceptions) but is doesn't show a report either ! In fact ... nothing happens. The PDF method goes to its end without errors but I see no PDF output. Any clue to this ?
