Hey Forum,

This is my first post so forgive me if I placed it in the wrong section.

I was wondering if anyone knows how to convert Jasper reports (.jrxml) into BIRT reports (.rptdesign).

I found this post: http://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php/t/55244/
but it is from 2006.

I also did some searching to find someone who made a Jrxml2Rom class that should do at least some of the converting but I cannot seem to get it to work. I keep getting a generic "Unable to parse jrxml: Jrxml2Rom$ConvertException: Unable to parse jrxml file"

Does anyone know of a quicker way to convert these reports instead of just recreating them with BIRT?

Thanks for the help

I don't know of any great way of doing it besides recreating the reports. If you have many reports, you might look into creating a java class or something to convert them for you.

Thanks for the input Michael.

I figured that was the case but it didn't hurt to ask.
