default value of report parameter [message #552499]

hi there,

i want to filter my data with a dynamic report parameter as a combo box. its default value should be "all". If "all" is selected, all of the data should be shown.
It worked using the filter:

row["status"]    Equal to   (params["NewParameter"].value == "all" ? row["status"] : params["NewParameter"].value )

to make it more dynamic i want to replace "all" by the parameters default value. something like

row["status"]    Equal to   (params["NewParameter"].value == params["NewParameter"].defaultValue ? row["status"] : params["NewParameter"].value )

does anybody know how to get the default value?

You can use this in script or the expression builder to get the default
value of a parameter:
//1stparameter
reportContext.getDesignHandle().getParameters().get(0).getDe faultValue();
