Interface ICellScript

All Superinterfaces:

java.io.Serializable

public interface ICellScript
extends java.io.Serializable

Extend this class to create a new cell script for a report, then add an instance of your class to a particular cell of your report table to apply the script. For example, write a class called myScript:

public class myScript implements ICellScript {

// makes the font color of the cell RED if the data is less than 0

public ReportCell formatCell(int rowIndex, ReportCell cell, Object originalData,

IFormat dataFormat) throws Exception
{
if (originalData instanceof Double)
if (((Double)originalData).intValue() < 0)
cell.setFontColor(java.awt.Color.red);
return cell;
}

}

create an instance of your cell script object and apply it to a cell like so:

ICellScript script = new myScript();
report.getTable().getColumn(1).setCellScript(script);
