Hello Guys,

I have a BIRT program that outputs the selection choices of a report parameter defined in a report file (see the code below).
It works, it lists the (dynamic) choices, but the program is not terminated (I ran it from console and also from Eclipse IDE but couldn't terminate.) I checked it in debug mode, and all the commands are executed, there seems to be no problem.

Is this a bug of the BIRT runtime? Why doesn't it terminate?
Many thanks!

Here is the program:

public static void main(String[] args) {
    EngineConfig config = new EngineConfig();

    config.setProperty("BIRT_HOME", BIRT_ENGINE_HOME);
    IReportEngine engine = null;
    try {
        Platform.startup(config);
        IReportEngineFactory factory = (IReportEngineFactory)Platform.createFactoryObject(IReportEngineFactory.EXTENSION_REPORT_ENGINE_FACTORY);
        engine = factory.createReportEngine(config);
        IReportRunnable runnable = engine.openReportDesign("./resources/reporting/test.rptdesign");
        IGetParameterDefinitionTask task = engine.createGetParameterDefinitionTask(runnable);
        for(Object object : task.getSelectionList("Foobar")) {
            IParameterSelectionChoice choice = (IParameterSelectionChoice)object; 
            System.out.println("Possible selection choice value:"+choice.getValue());				
            System.out.println("Possible selection choice label:"+choice.getLabel());				
        }
			
        Platform.shutdown();

    } catch (Exception ex) {
        ex.printStackTrace();
    }				
}
