/**
 * An abstract representation of a report text. It provides functionality for dynamic texts.
 * 

 * Unlike static text elements, which do not change their text content, text fields have an
 * associated expression that is evaluated with every iteration in the data source to obtain
 * the text content to be displayed.
 * 
Variable-Height Text Fields
 * Because text fields have dynamic content, most of the time one can't anticipate the exact
 * amount of space to provide for them. If the space reserved for the text fields is not
 * sufficient, the text content is truncated so that it fits into the available area.
 * 

 * This scenario is not always acceptable, so one can let the reporting engine calculate the
 * amount of space required to display the entire content of the text field at runtime, and
 * automatically adjust the size of the report element.
 * 

 * To do this, set the isStretchWithOverflow flag to true for the particular text field elements
 * you are interested in. By doing this, you'll ensure that if the specified height for the text
 * field is not sufficient, it will automatically be increased (never decreased) in order to be
 * able to display the entire text content.
 * When text fields are affected by this stretch mechanism, the entire report section to
 * which they belong is also stretched.
 * 
Text Field Expression
 * A text field expression is introduced in the JRXML template by the <textFieldExpression> 
 * element (see {@link #getExpression()}) and can return values from various types, like the ones listed below:
 * 

 * 
java.lang.Boolean
 * 
java.lang.Byte
 * 
java.util.Date
 * 
java.sql.Timestamp
 * 
java.sql.Time
 * 
java.lang.Double
 * 
java.lang.Float
 * 
java.lang.Integer
 * 
java.lang.Long
 * 
java.lang.Short
 * 
java.math.BigDecimal
 * 
java.lang.Number
 * 
java.lang.String
 * 
 * 
Evaluating Text Fields
 * JasperReports provides a feature (the evaluationTime attribute 
 * inherited from {@link net.sf.jasperreports.engine.JREvaluation})
 * that lets you decide the exact moment you want the text field expression to be evaluated,
 * avoiding the default behavior in which the expression is evaluated immediately when the
 * current report section is generated.
 * 

 * The evaluationTime attribute can have one of the following values 
 * (see {@link net.sf.jasperreports.engine.JREvaluation#getEvaluationTimeValue()}):
 * 

 * 
Now - The text field expression is evaluated when the current band is filled.
 * 
Report - The text field expression is evaluated when the end of the report is reached.
 * 
Page - The text field expression is evaluated when the end of the current page is reached
 * 
Column - The text field expression is evaluated when the end of the current column is reached
 * 
Group - The text field expression is evaluated when the group specified by the evaluationGroup 
 * attribute (see {@link #getEvaluationGroup()}) changes
 * 
Auto - Each variable participating in the text field expression is evaluated at a time corresponding 
 * to its reset type. Fields are evaluated Now. This evaluation type should be used for expressions 
 * that combine values evaluated at different times, like the percentage out of a total
 * 
 * 

 * Text fields with delayed evaluation do not stretch to acquire all the expression's content. This is
 * because the text element height is calculated when the report section is generated, and even if the engine comes
 * back later with the text content of the text field, the element height will not adapt, because this would ruin the
 * already created layout.
 * 

 * Also, avoid using evaluation type Auto when other types suffice, as it can lead to performance loss.
 * 
Suppressing the Display of the Null Values
 * If the text field expression returns null, your text field will display the null text in the
 * generated document. A simple way to avoid this is to set the isBlankWhenNull attribute
 * (see {@link #isBlankWhenNull()}) to true. By doing this, the text field will cease to display null 
 * and will instead display an empty string. This way nothing will appear on your document if the text field value is
 * null.
 * 
Formatting Output
 * When dealing with numeric or date/time values, you can use the Java API to
 * format the output of the text field expressions. But there is a more convenient way to do
 * it: by using either the pattern attribute (see {@link #getPattern()}) or the 
 * <patternExpression> element (see {@link #getPatternExpression()}).
 * 

 * The engine instantiates the java.text.DecimalFormat class if the text field
 * expression returns subclasses of the java.lang.Number class, or instantiates the
 * java.text.SimpleDataFormat if the text field expression returns java.util.Date,
 * java.sql.Timestamp or java.sql.Time objects.
 * For numeric fields, the value you should supply to this attribute is the same as if you
 * formatted the value using java.text.DecimalFormat.
 * For date/time fields, the value of this attribute has to be one of the following:
 * 

 * 
A style for the date part of the value and one for the time part, separated by a
 * comma, or one style for both the date part and the time part. A style is one of
 * Short, Medium, Long, Full, Default (corresponding to
 * java.text.DateFormat styles), or Hide. The formatter is constructed by calling
 * one of the getDateTimeInstance(), getDateInstance(), or
 * getTimeInstance() methods of java.text.DateFormat (depending on one of
 * the date/time parts being hidden) and supplying the date/time styles and report
 * locale.
 * 
A pattern that can be supplied to java.text.SimpleDateFormat. Note that in
 * this case the internationalization support is limited.
 * 
 * For more details about the syntax of this pattern attribute, check the Java API
 * documentation for the java.text.DecimalFormat and
 * java.text.SimpleDateFormat classes.
