I am trying to create a sub report(report1_subreport3.jrxml) from the main report(report1.jrxml) using iReport designer (both with empty data source) . The main report detail band contains a static text ("Main Report") and the subreport element and the subreport contains a static text in its corresponding detail band("Sub Report")
But clicking the preview tab of the main report shows only static text "Main Report" not displaying the static text of subreport ("Sub Report") .
I also went through the link http://community.jaspersoft.com/questions/524978/empty-subreport-xml-datasource-ireport but still facing the issue .
Below is the report1.jrxml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
