Re: [Springframework-developer] JasperReports Support in 1.1.3

[<jue...@we...>]

Thanks for moving the JasperReports support over to the main sources, =
Rob! I'm currently about to revise it a bit, for example regarding =
exception handling on initialization (implementing afterPropertiesSet =
instead of overriding initApplicationContext, to allow for throwing any =
exception and avoid the need to use unchecked wrapper exceptions).

There's one further thing I'd like to improve: JRDataSource lookup. It =
would be good if controller code would not have to add a =
JasperReports-specific class to the model. Instead, we could pass in a =
bean collection or bean array, to be implicitly wrapped with a =
JRBeanCollectionDataSource or a JRBeanArrayDataSource, respectively.
=20
It looks to me that the JasperReports parameter map does not support =
collections or arrays anyway, so we could in principle auto-detect a =
collection or array in the model and wrap it accordingly as =
JRDataSource. Else, we could define a specific model name for the =
JRDataSource (as bean property on the view): if specified, the given =
model object will be used (wrapped if necessary), rather than searching =
the model map for matching values.

I've also updated JasperReports to the recently released 0.6.2. I'll =
commit my current state tonight or tomorrow morning.

If everyone is in agreement I would like to move the JasperReports stuff
into the main branch ready for 1.1.3. I spent some time yesterday
polishing the JavaDocs for this module which I plan to finish off over
the next few days, plus I'll add a couple of pages of documentation for
this as well.
