Add BIRT runtime library jar files into RCP app? [message #659818]

Hello,

I have a RCP application from where I am calling methods to create BIRT reports based on a .rptDesign file.

I am able to do this successfully from a standalone Java app by adding the BIRT runtime *.jar files to the -cp option.

For the RCP app, however, when I launched the RCP app, the code to invoke the runtime library fails with an error message:
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/eclipse/birt/report/engine/api/IRenderOption

To try to get this to work from I copied the C:\birt-runtime-2_6_2\ReportEngine\lib\ folder into my <workspaceDir>\<myRcpProjectDir>\birtRuntimeLib\ folder.

Then, within the plugin.xml file, within the 'Build' tab, I made sure I added all the jar files from the <workspaceDir>\<myRcpProjectDir>\birtRuntimeLib\ directory into the "Extra Classpath Entries" section.

The error message still shows when I run the RCP app.

Did I miss something?

Thanks so much in advance,
--Anna

Hello,

I found the problem.

I should have added the BIRT runtime jar files into the "Classpath" section in the "Runtime" tab. The NoClassDefFoundError is gone now.

Thanks,
