BIRT temporary files cleanup [message #896126]

Hi

Our reporting engine is deployed in weblogic. reports are generated and then canned and viewed later. In this process, files are not getting released by the weblogic processes and hence not getting deleted. Is there any configuration and anything we need to do to cleanup the files automatically.

FYI
Temporary files are created while generating and also viewing

Thanks

We have some files created like 'birt_xls_4...' by BIRT.

I believe this is a known issue:

Jason,

We are using Thirt party native excel emitter to generate the excel file, do we still have these files created?

The bug says its fixed. We are using Birt3.7 to generating our reports.Do u think the issue is still thr?

Also the birt_xls... files are created with excel generation with BIRT excel emitter or any other emitter?

Those temporary files were created by the default birt xls emitter. I
have not looked through the source for the emitter you are using and I
do not know its implementation. It may be good to add a comment to the
dev share entry to ask the author.
