Jarda,
you should be able to use:
reportContext.getParameterDisplayText("ParmName")
in an expression. How are you attempting it now?

Jarda,
You are correct it will not work with the report runner class that is
called in that bat file. The reason it works with the viewer and not
the report runner, is that the viewer sets it after the user selects a
value for the parameter. The reportrunner class does not do this. You
could modify the reportrunner class or write your own and use code like
this:
task.setParameterValue("parm1", "value2");
task.setParameterDisplayText("parm1", "testme");
If you want the display text from the design you can use a parameter
task before you run the report like this:
IGetParameterDefinitionTask ptask =
engine.createGetParameterDefinitionTask( design );
Collection selectionList = ptask.getSelectionList("parm1");
String myDisplayText = "";
if ( selectionList != null )
{
for ( Iterator sliter = selectionList.iterator( ); sliter.hasNext( ); )
{
IParameterSelectionChoice selectionItem = (IParameterSelectionChoice)
sliter.next( );
String lbl = selectionItem.getLabel();
String value = (String)selectionItem.getValue( );
if( value.compareTo("value2") == 0 ){
myDisplayText = selectionItem.getLabel();
break;
}
}
}
ptask.close();
You could then use task.setParameterDisplayText as above with the
variable myDisplayText.

Jason,
thanks for your explanation.
However, I haven´t experience to add described class modification to
reportrunner.
Please, is there way to access SelectionList of a parameter from
JavaScript (directly in particular report through reportContext)? I want
check supplied parameters and modify displayText - like your code below.
Thanks
Jarda
BTW, I am still confused from different report processing on
viewer/reportrunner.

Jarda,
Can you try something like this:
beforeFactory script:
var myDisplayText = "did not find";
importPackage(Packages.org.eclipse.birt.report.engine.api);
var re = reportContext.getReportRunnable().getReportEngine();
var ptask = re.createGetParameterDefinitionTask(
reportContext.getReportRunnable() );
var selectionList = ptask.getSelectionList("parm1");
var myDisplayText = "";
if ( selectionList != null )
{
for ( sliter = selectionList.iterator( ); sliter.hasNext( ); )
{
selectionItem = sliter.next( );
pvalue = selectionItem.getValue();
if( pvalue.compareTo(params["parm1"].value) == 0 ){
myDisplayText = selectionItem.getLabel();
break;
}
}
}
ptask.close();
reportContext.setGlobalVariable("gMyDisplayText", myDisplayText);
then when you want to reference it do this in the expression:
reportContext.getGlobalVariable("gMyDisplayText");
See attached example:
