A Crosstab Counter in Jaspersoft iReport Designer

This video shows how to number the rows in a Jasper Reports crosstab.  A custom Java class 'Counter' is used in a Text Expression.  The expression retrieves the current value and increments the counter.

Developing a class in the Eclipse IDE for use in iReport Designer is also featured.

The code referenced in the video is available here.  It's compiled using Java 6 into a JAR file here which is ready to use in iReport Designer 4.7.0.
