We need to make a slight modification to the JRXML template to be able
to successfully create a report from an XML datasource. We need to add a
<fieldDescription>
element inside each
<field>
element. The following JRXML
template illustrates this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE jasperReport PUBLIC "//JasperReports//DTD Report Design//EN"
