handling multiple tables in JFreeReport

[Anonymous]

Hi!

I was searching for a report builder... and I found JFreeReport. It's very very nice!
I was wondering if this software has the possibility to handle data collected from 3 or more tables.
In our environment we have to print data from 3 different tables and every data has to be groped.
An exemple of a report could be like this:

table A
condition 1
record 1
record 5
record 7

condition 2
record 2
record 4

table B
condition a
record 1
record 3
condition b
record 2
record 4

table C
condition I
record 1
record 2
condition II
record 4
condition III
record 3

Is this possible? How?

In the documentation I found that JFreeReport uses TableModel to collect data....
Does it handle ony one instance of a TableModel? For Instance, Can I create three TableModels one for each table?

Hi,

this is not possible in JFreeReport. We support a single tablemodel, and the whole internal reporting process is tailored to that limitation.

Multiple reports (and therefore tablemodels) will be possible once we implement subreports; but this is science-fiction at the moment. The plans for this are made, and if the gods have mercy, then we'll have that feature implemented in october or november..

Have more fun,
