Expression in Barcode tag

[Jim Riley]

The barcode tag works if I use plain text as the content, example:
        <table columns="1" width="100">
            <cell halign="center" border-style="none">
                <barcode type="CODE39" bar-height="10">1234</barcode>
            </cell>
        </table>

However, I would like to put an expression inside the tag.  For example

        <table columns="1" width="100">
            <cell halign="center" border-style="none">
                <barcode type="CODE39" bar-height="10">${MY_ID}</barcode>
            </cell>
        </table>

When I use the expression, I get the following error:

org.ujac.print.DocumentHandlerException: The character '{' is illegal in code 39.
    at org.ujac.print.DocumentPrinter.printDocument(DocumentPrinter.java:356)
    at com.kmm.pres.ujac.ContractGenerator.generateUJAC(ContractGenerator.java:52)
    at com.kmm.pres.ujac.ContractGenerator.main(ContractGenerator.java:71)
Caused by: ExceptionConverter: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: The character '{' is illegal in code 39.

Is there anything I can do to get the expression evaluated?

Try this:

<table columns="1" width="100">
<cell halign="center" border-style="none">
<barcode type="CODE39" bar-height="10"><![CDATA[${MY_ID}]]></barcode>
</cell>
</table>

Hi Jim,

you're right, the support for dynamic barcodes has been missing so far. I've fixed this issue.

Thanx for helping to make UJAC better.

Best regards,
Christian
