#80 Invalid Error "Matching tag not found"

[SuperPat]

Hi,

With JETT 0.9.1, I have an XLS template with 3 <jt:foreach> tags imbricated but JETT sems to need a fourth </jtforeach> end tag.

Without, I have this exception:

net.sf.jett.exception.TagParseException: Matching tag not found for tag: <jt:forEach items="${Chrono}" var="C">, located at Chronologie générale!A3, within block Block: left=0, right=9, top=0, bottom=11, direction=NONE

SuperPat,

This error occurs because nested tags must be completely within their parent tag. Your outermost jt:forEach tag starts at A3 and ends at B10, so all nested tags must start and end within that rectangle. However, your 3rd-level nested jt:forEach tag starts at A9 and ends at J9, and J9 is outside of the outermost tag. It's also outside of the 2nd-level tag, which starts at A5 and ends at A10.

To expand the coverage of those tags, move your 2 outermost end tags, currently on A10 and B10, both to J10. Change

     A         B         C-I      J

9  forEach3                     /forEach3
