How to pass $P{XML_DATA_DOCUMENT} to sub report - additional documentation
Description
When I execute the following command:
jasperstarter pr xml0.jasper -t xml -f pdf -o report --xml-xpath "/Northwind/Customers" --data-file "north.xml"
I'm getting this error. The problem is that xml0.jasper has a sub report and the XML_DATA_DOCUMENT needs to be passed to the subreport for it to have data. Any other ideas on how to make subreports work using XML data files?

nblock,
When I try to put in that expression into the DataSourceExpression in Jasper Reports Studio it tells me "invalid expression". Any idea what I might be doing wrong. I've googled it to death and found nothing.
Thanks,
Kevin

Ok, sorry. I'll start a new discussion question and upload my example
xml report/subreport that isn't working.

I decided to write a short blog post about this issue. You can find it here: http://nblock.org/2015/06/02/processing-jasper-subreports-with-jasperstarter/
Volker, feel free to include the examples, if you like.
