Problem in Birt 2.6 with showing Image in Report [message #555029]

Hi all,

i use Birt 2.2 with own resource locator to add images in the reports and it works fine.

Recently i upgrade to Birt 2.6, after that images could not been shown in the report without any errors in the log.

The Images come from shared resources and at runtime they will be catched by my own resource locator from a jar file in /WEB-INF/lib.

As already said, it works fine with Birt 2.2 in the past. With Birt 2.6 the properties and library file in jar can also be used, only the images file cause problem. In log file i can see that the resource locator has already localized the asked image with output like "zipC:/.../xxx.jar!/.../image.gif".

Does anyone has any idea?

thanks in advance.
Peng

From my comment on the blog:

If you leave the default resource locator, you can select the image type
to be a image file in shared resource and then enter the jar file like:
jar:file:/C:/myresources/myimages.jar!/myimage.jpg

If you want this to be dynamic you can enter an expression (make sure to
use the fx button) and enter an expression like:

var jarfile = reportContext.getResource("myimages.jar");
myfulljarimage = "jar:"+jarfile.toString()+"!/myimage.jpg";
myfulljarimage;

This assume the myimages.jar file is in your resource folder.
