        Constant Field Values
      • VARIABLE_IS_EVEN_COLUMN

        static final java.lang.String VARIABLE_IS_EVEN_COLUMN
        Name of the built-in column variable to indicate alternate odd/even columns.
        See Also:
        Constant Field Values
      • PROPERTY_IGNORE_WIDTH

        static final java.lang.String PROPERTY_IGNORE_WIDTH
        A property that provides a default value for the ignore width crosstab flag.

        The property can be set globally and at report level. A flag/attribute set for a crosstab will override the property.

        The property value set at report level will be used when the crosstab flag is not set. If neither the crosstab flag and report level property exist and the JRParameter.IS_IGNORE_PAGINATION parameter is set to true, the crosstab width is ignored. Otherwise, the global property value will be used.

        The default global value of this property is false, i.e. crosstabs will break by default at the width set for the crosstab report element.

        setIgnoreWidth(Boolean), Constant Field Values
    • Method Detail

      • getId

        int getId()
        Returns the ID of the crosstab.

        The ID is generated when the report is compiled and is used internally.

        Returns:
        the ID of the crosstab
      • getDataset

        JRCrosstabDataset getDataset()
        Returns the input dataset of the crosstab.
        Returns:
        the input dataset of the crosstab
      • getRowGroups

        JRCrosstabRowGroup[] getRowGroups()
        Returns the row groups of the crosstab.
        Returns:
        the row groups
      • getColumnGroups

        JRCrosstabColumnGroup[] getColumnGroups()
        Returns the column groups of the crosstab.
        Returns:
        the column groups
      • getMeasures

        JRCrosstabMeasure[] getMeasures()
        Returns the crosstab measures.
        Returns:
        the crosstab measures
      • getColumnBreakOffset

        int getColumnBreakOffset()
        Returns the column break offset.

        When the crosstab columns do not fit the width, the crosstab breaks the columns and prints the ones that don't fit after printing the first set of columns for all rows. This method returns the offset to be used when continuing the printing after a column break.

        Returns:
        the column break offset
      • isRepeatColumnHeaders

        boolean isRepeatColumnHeaders()
        Returns whether to repeat the column headers after a row break.
        Returns:
        whether to repeat the column headers after a row break
      • isRepeatRowHeaders

        boolean isRepeatRowHeaders()
        Returns whether to repeat the row headers after a column break.
        Returns:
        whether to repeat the row headers after a column break
      • getCells

        JRCrosstabCell[][] getCells()
        Returns the data cell matrix.

        A crosstab can have multiple data cells for row/groups totals. These cells are organized in a (rowGroupCount + 1) x (columnGroupCount + 1) matrix as following:

        • the row index of a cell is
          • the row group index, if the cell corresponds to a total row
          • rowGroupCount, otherwise
        • the column index of a cell is
          • the column group index, if the cell corresponds to a total column
          • columnGroupCount, otherwise

        E.g. if the crosstab has Country and City (subgroup of Country) row groups and Year and Month column groups, the cells will be organized in the following matrix

        0/Years total 1/Months total 2/Base
        0/Countries total Total for all countries and all years Total for all countries and a year Total for all countries and a month
        1/Cities total Total for a country and all years Total for a country and a year Total for a country and a month
        2/Base Total for a city and all years Total for a city and a year Total for a city and a month

        If the data cell for a total row/column is not specified, the cell will be inherited from lower levels, if possible. For example, if the "Total for all countries and a year" cell is not specified, the "Total for a country and a year" or "Total for a city and a year" cell will be used (in this order).

        The data cell sizes are calculated from the base data cell sizes, i.e. the height of all data cells for a row will be the height of the base cell of that row. The base cell sizes are also inherited, e.g. if the height of a total row is not specified the height of the base row will be used.

        Returns:
        the data cell matrix
      • getParameters

        JRCrosstabParameter[] getParameters()
        Returns the crosstab parameters.

        Crosstabs have separate expression evaluators and cannot access the parameters/fields/variables of the report. In order to use a value from the report inside a crosstab, it should be passed as parameter to the crosstab.

        A crosstab parameters has a name and a value expression.

        Returns:
        the crosstab parameters
      • getParametersMapExpression

        JRExpression getParametersMapExpression()
        Returns the parameters map expression.

        The set of values for crosstab parameters can be set using a map. If a parameter has also a value expression, it will overwrite the value from the map.

        Returns:
        the parameters map expression
      • getWhenNoDataCell

        JRCellContents getWhenNoDataCell()
        Returns a cell which will be rendered when no data was fed to the crosstab.

        If this cell is not specified for a crosstab, nothing will be rendered for an empty crosstab.

        The cell sizes are the same as the crosstab element sizes.

        Returns:
        a cell which will be rendered when no data was fed to the crosstab
      • getElementByKey

        JRElement getElementByKey​(java.lang.String key)
        Searches for an element inside all crosstab cells.
        Parameters:
        key - the element key
        Returns:
        the first element having the specified key
      • getHeaderCell

        JRCellContents getHeaderCell()
        Returns a cell which will be rendered at the upper-left corner of the crosstab.

        The cell size will be calculated based on the row/column header cell widths/heights.

        Returns:
        a cell which will be rendered at the upper-left corner of the crosstab
      • getRunDirectionValue

        RunDirectionEnum getRunDirectionValue()
        Retrieves the run direction of this crosstab
        Returns:
        a value representing one of the run direction constants in RunDirectionEnum
      • setRunDirection

        void setRunDirection​(RunDirectionEnum runDirectionEnum)
        Sets the run direction of the crosstab.

        Crosstabs can either be filled from left to right (the default) or from right to left (mainly for reports in RTL languages).

        Parameters:
        runDirectionEnum - a value representing one of the run direction constants in RunDirectionEnum
      • getIgnoreWidth

        java.lang.Boolean getIgnoreWidth()
        Returns the ignore width flag for the crosstab.
        Returns:
        the ignore width flag, or null is the crosstab does not specify a flag value
        See Also:
        setIgnoreWidth(Boolean)
      • setIgnoreWidth

        void setIgnoreWidth​(java.lang.Boolean ignoreWidth)
        Set the ignore width crosstab flag.

        This flag determines whether the crosstab will break at the width set for the crosstab element, or whether the crosstab is to expand over this width (and over the page width as well).

        If this flag is set to true, the crosstab will expand towards the right (or towards the left if the crosstab direction is RTL) as long as it needs to. This would result in crosstab cells being rendered over the page boundary; such elements will be exported by certain grid-based exporters such as the HTML or XLS ones, but will not be visible in export formats that observe the page width, such as the PDF exporter.

        The default value of this flag is given by the PROPERTY_IGNORE_WIDTH property and the JRParameter.IS_IGNORE_PAGINATION parameter.

        Parameters:
        ignoreWidth - whether the element width is to be ignored by the crosstab, or null if the default setting is to be used
        See Also:
        PROPERTY_IGNORE_WIDTH
      • getHorizontalPosition

        HorizontalPosition getHorizontalPosition()
        Returns the position of the crosstab within its element box.
        Returns:
        the position of the crosstab within its element box, null if no position is specified
      • setHorizontalPosition

        void setHorizontalPosition​(HorizontalPosition horizontalPosition)
        Sets the position of the crosstab within its element box.
        Parameters:
        horizontalPosition - the crosstab position, if null the default position is applied
      • getTitleCell

        CrosstabColumnCell getTitleCell()
        Returns the title cell, which renders once at the beginning of the crosstab.
        Returns:
        the title cell
