NexJ Reporting Engine Release Notes
The following information describes the new features, resolved issues, and known issues for the NexJ Reporting Engine.
New features
The following new features have been added to NexJ Reporting Engine version 2.1.0.0.
Version 2.1.0.0
Capture the SQL bind parameters and columns values for JasperServer generated queries
Description
A new logger feature is now available that can be used to log SQL bind parameters and the column values returned from the JasperServer SQL query executed. A user with privileges to access the "Server Settings" page can enable this logger in the “Log Settings” screen in the JasperServer application (from the toolbar found in the JasperServer "Home" screen: Manage > Server Settings > Log Settings).
Usage
Within the "Log Settings" screen, the new logger can be found with the description: “SQL bind parameters and query column return values”
To enable this feature, a log level of "TRACE" needs to be set for this specific logger. Since this logger does not log the SQL queries themselves however, it is recommended that this feature be enabled and used in conjunction with the Hibernate SQL logger at DEBUG level, which will log the queries.
Info
As this logging feature can generate a vast amount of data, it is not recommended to keep this enabled at all times, rather it should only be used during debugging sessions.

Version 2.1.0.0
The following issues have been resolved in NexJ Reporting Engine 2.1.0.0.
NRE-845
Resolved an issue with the ability to deploy JasperServer build with NexJ CRM 8.2. In some cases, when deploying JasperServer to WebSphere, the class path loaders with NexJ CRM and JasperServer would pick up the wrong version of the required classes. The JasperServer build has been repackaged to avoid any potential conflicts with any current or future releases of NexJ CRM.
Known issues and workarounds
The following are the known issues in the current release of NexJ Reporting Engine.
NRE-834
In certain cases, when creating or scheduling reports within JasperServer, the response times can take up to 20 minutes. This issue is very sporadic and hard to reproduce; specifically, it has not been reproduced in any NexJ environment. NexJ has included a new logging feature with this release which should help further troubleshoot and diagnose the issue when it does occur.
