org.jfree.report.modules.parser.ext

An extensible report definition parser. The parser uses a generic report definition syntax to fully describe the report. The parser heavily relies on factories to create elements and objects.

The used generic approach leads to a complex and very complex and technically detailed report definition, which can be confusing and difficult to use for human authors.

The DTD for the reportdefinition files can be found at http://jfreereport.sourceforge.net/extreport.dtd or in the distribution package.

The document type declaration for this definition type is

<!DOCTYPE report-definition
  PUBLIC "-//JFreeReport//DTD report definition//EN//extended"
         "http://jfreereport.sourceforge.net/extreport.dtd">

The template inheritance is implemented using various instances of the same template class with variing parameter fill level.

ParserHints used by this parser:

JFreeReport-objectext.parser.parser-config.objectfactoriesjava.util.ListA list containing the class names of all used object factories.JFreeReport-objectext.parser.parser-config.stylekeyfactoriesjava.util.ListA list containing the class names of all used stylekey factories.JFreeReport-objectext.parser.parser-config.templatefactoriesjava.util.ListA list containing the class names of all used template factories.JFreeReport-objectext.parser.parser-config.datasourcefactoriesjava.util.ListA list containing the class names of all used datasource factories.JFreeReport-objectext.parser.parser-config.elementfactoriesjava.util.ListA list containing the class names of all used element factories.JFreeReport-objectext.parser.template-definitionjava.util.ListA list containing all predefined templates.JFreeReport-objectparser.typejava.lang.StringA string marking the type of the parser that was used to create the report. The ext-parser uses "org.jfree.report.modules.parser.ext" and the simple parser uses "org.jfree.report.modules.parser.simple".Element, TemplateDescriptionext.parser.template-referencejava.lang.StringContains the name of the referenced template.JFreeReport-objectext.parser.template-definitionjava.util.ListContains the defined template descriptions.
