I am currently developing a report using DynamicJasper. This is the first time I'm going to use this. I'm following several tutorial but I can't get my head around this problem. I have a column state which is grouped. This column can only have two values - state1 and state2. Basically, what I'm expecting is something like
state1
branch productline columnItem columnCode
branch productline columnItem columnCode
branch productline columnItem columnCode
branch productline columnItem columnCode
branch productline columnItem columnCode
state2
branch productline columnItem columnCode
branch productline columnItem columnCode
branch productline columnItem columnCode
branch productline columnItem columnCode
branch productline columnItem columnCode
But currently, what I'm having is
state1
branch productline columnItem columnCode
state2
branch productline columnItem columnCode
state1
branch productline columnItem columnCode
state2
branch productline columnItem columnCode
...
Its like they are never grouped at all.
Here is my runnable code :

I think that you forgot to sort data by state field.
Try to sort data and everything will be OK.
You can find more info about grouping in Data Grouping topic.
