Birt 2.6.0 Viewer in RCP Application [message #552868]

Fri, 13 August 2010 18:19

Eclipse User

Hi,

I'm trying to move from Eclipse 3.4.2 / Birt 2.3.2 to Eclipse 3.6.0 / Birt 2.6.0. I have run into a snag when I attempt to use the viewer in my RCP application.

My install is a clean Eclipse 3.6.0 with Birt 2.6.0 install using the update site. I created a new workspace and imported all of my code. I brought the report designs into the designer and it converted them to the new version format. I did some rudimentary tests in the Report Perspective.

My app has a ReportView that extends ViewPart. This is where I run and render the report. All of my code is unchanged. Only the Eclipse and Birt plugins have. When I invoke run() method of IRunAndRenderTask, I get an EngineException. Stack trace below. I'm wondering if anyone else has seen anything like this. I found this, https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=292109 , which seems to apply, but I can't find out what is causing the BirtException. Any ideas?

I bit the bullet and grabbed the Birt source and hooked it up to my app so I could see what the actual BirtException was being gobbled by https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=292109 .

Let me just say after a whole bunch of messing around it turns out that at some point (Birt 2.5.1??) I need to include the org.eclipse.birt.report.engine.script.javascript plugin in my configuration since I'm using scripted data sources. Its probably in the docs some place. Laughing

The report is now running and being rendered. It goes into a file for some reason, but it does work.

Mike,

What do you mean by it goes into a file?

Jason,

I'm emitting a pdf to a temporary file created using File.createTempFile(). Once the task is finished generating the file I want to open it in a SWT Browser in a view via:

browser.setUrl( options.getOutputFileName() );

In Windows, this displays the report in a browser window in the RCP app. In Linux, the view is created, but not the browser and I get a file dialog asking where I want to save the file.

Until recently, all of development and targets have been for windows. Now I'm doing my development using Linux and also targeting Linux as a runtime environment. Its probably something stupid or a bug.

I'm also thinking that Linux might not like File and would rather have something resembles an actual URI. I'm going to look into that now.

If you have any ideas, I would appreciate it.

I knew I was stupid. I don't have an Acrobat reader in the Linux Firefox. All PDF files are opened in an external Document Viewer. I'm going to look into getting that installed and working.

We had the same problem with our RCP app. Solved that one years ago.

Here is the code Smile

PDF_PRINT_JAVASCRIPT = "this.print({bUI: true, bSilent:false});\r";

String tempFile = ... create temp file...

FileOutputStream out = new FileOutputStream(tempFile);
FileInputStream in = new FileInputStream(filename);
PdfReader pdfReader = new PdfReader(in);

PdfStamper pdfStamper = new PdfStamper(pdfReader,out);
pdfStamper.addJavaScript(BirtVARS.PDF_PRINT_JAVASCRIPT);

pdfStamper.close();

We are using iText-5.0.4.jar
