Hello,

I found a problem of autotext of PageNumber in MasterPage

The page number is always 1 if the report is designed and generated by Java program.

To reproduce the problem, you create an empty rptdesign file with A4 size and put an autotext of page number in the header of MasterPage, then use the program below to generate the report:

public static void main(String[] args) {
try {
EngineConfig config = new EngineConfig();
config.setBIRTHome("E:\\eclipsebirtsdk\\birt-runtime-2_6_0\\ReportEngine ");
Platform.startup(config);

IReportEngineFactory factory = (IReportEngineFactory) Platform
.createFactoryObject(IReportEngineFactory.EXTENSION_REPORT_E NGINE_FACTORY);
IReportEngine bre = factory.createReportEngine(config);

String eoRptDesignFilePath = "C:\\projets\\java\\doccompta\\PisteAuditReport\\" +
"test_report.rptdesign";
IReportRunnable eoRptDesign = bre.openReportDesign(eoRptDesignFilePath);
ElementFactory designFactory = eoRptDesign.getDesignHandle().getElementFactory( );
ReportDesignHandle rdh = (ReportDesignHandle)eoRptDesign.getDesignHandle();

for(int i = 0; i < 1000; i++) {
LabelHandle dataNameLabel = designFactory.newLabel(null);
dataNameLabel.setText(String.valueOf(i));

rdh.getBody().add(dataNameLabel);
}
IRunTask runTask = bre.createRunTask(eoRptDesign);
String rptDocFilePath = "c:\\temp\\temp.rptdocument"; //fichier temporaire de birt
runTask.run(rptDocFilePath);

IReportDocument rptdoc = bre.openReportDocument(rptDocFilePath);
IRenderTask renderTask = bre.createRenderTask(rptdoc);

IRenderOption option = new PDFRenderOption();
option.setOutputFormat(RenderOption.OUTPUT_FORMAT_PDF);
option.setOutputFileName("c:\\temp\\a.pdf");

renderTask.setRenderOption(option);

renderTask.render();
renderTask.close();

rptdoc.close();

new File(rptDocFilePath).delete();

bre.destroy();

System.out.println("ok");
Desktop.getDesktop().open(new File("c:\\temp\\a.pdf"));

System.exit(0);
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
System.exit(1);
}
}

This does look like a bug. Can you report it? To work around it can
you change your for loop to do the following:

for(int i = 0; i < 1000; i++) {
LabelHandle dataNameLabel = designFactory.newLabel(null);
dataNameLabel.setText(String.valueOf(i));

if( (i % 20) == 0 && i > 0 ){
dataNameLabel.setProperty("pageBreakAfter", "Always");
}


rdh.getBody().add(dataNameLabel);
}

Thank you for the quick answer.

I will report this problem to BIRT.

Another solution is to use IRunAndRenderTask but I think that it may cause other problems in the report.

best regards

Can you give us the link of your bug report?

We've this problem, too. It's a problem of BIRT 2.6, in 2.5 we didn't
have the problem.

If we use the BIRT web viewer to view our report all is ok. In HTML, our
report has 4 pages. If we than export the report to PDF the PDF takes
the page numbers of the HTML version. It has above to 50 pages but the
page numbers go from 1 to 4 like the HTML version.

Sorry for posting two times. Is there any workaround, using scripts or
doing something else? We only use the predefined grid component n of m
in our master page.

Jason,

thanks for your answer. Is it possible to do the page numbering in another way (using scripts or doing somethind else) as workaround until the bug is fixed?

Thanks,
Helmut

I tried using variables as workaround but I failed. I have the same effect. I used two variables, one report variable, one page variable and used the onPageEnd event in the master page to increment the report variable and assign the value to the page variable.

Any other idea?

Did you try setting pagebreakinterval?

Can you try setting pagebreakinterval to a high number and see if that works. If layout is fixed this should issue soft page breaks.
