What’s New in JasperReports Server 8.2

Security Improvements

Server Setting to Upload Jar Files

Superusers now have an "enable upload jar" option in the Server Level Settings page. Superusers can enable this for themselves but have to do so consciously. This provides greater control over jar file uploads.

The jar upload option for Superusers is disabled by default.
 

Control Over Number of Failed Login Attempts

For security reasons, if a user enters an incorrect password multiple times, they can be locked out of their account. The number of failed attempts is enabled and set to 10 by default. The feature can be disabled and the number of failed attempts can be configured.
 

UI/ UX Enhancements

Server Setting to Show/Hide Duplicate Rows in Ad Hoc

Superusers can now decide the default behavior for Show/Hide Duplicate Rows in the Ad Hoc Designer. There is a new setting for this under Server Settings > Ad Hoc Settings. 
 

Close Editors and Viewers to Navigate Back to Repository/ Library/ Search Results/ Home

• For a better user experience, a new “Close” button has been added to the following resources: Domains, Ad Hoc Viewer, Ad Hoc Designer, Dashboard Designer, Dashboard Viewer, and Report Viewer.
• This helps users to differentiate between going back to a parent report (in case of Dashboards and Drill Down Reports) and closing an Editor/Viewer to go back to the Repository/ Library/ Search Results/ Home page.
• In case of embedding JaspersReports Server using Visualize.js or iFrames, the Close button in the Editor/Viewer ensures that navigation is not dependent on the browser “Back” button.
• To avoid losing unsaved work, users will be prompted to Save their resources while Closing an unsaved item.
   

Informative Tooltip While Creating Calculated Fields in the Ad Hoc Designer

Users creating Calculated Fields in the Ad Hoc Designer can now see information about the fields and measures in a new tooltip. Earlier, it was hard to understand the source of the fields/measures being used while building formulae. Now, additional information is available, for example - the field path (to understand the origin of the data, the original name (in case the field name was changed), and the formula used (if another calculated field is in use).
 

Accessibility Compliance (WCAG 2.0 Level A and Level AA)

JasperReports Server (Login, Home, and Repository) is now compliant with Accessibility Guidelines as per WCAG 2.0 Level A and Level AA. To make Jaspersoft more accessible to people with disabilities, some pages can be accessed using keyboard navigation and screen readers.
