Hi,

We will soon be looking to use BIRT as the reporting engine for our EMF driven framework ORMF. I am aware that there is a Ecore ODA driver available. What I would very much appreciate are the experiences of this forum on using it or other means to integrate EMF and BIRT. What are the issues? Any tips or advice would be very much appreciated.

Many thanks,
Joel

Joel,

In addition to that driver you can always use a scripted data source to
access the model using the emf APIs.

Hi Jason,

I am new to integrating with BIRT. Can you possibly point me towards documentation/information the would elucidate how to use a scripted data source with EMF. I have both of the BIRT books so just referencing chapter(s) would be very helpful.

Many thanks,
Joel

Joel,

There is a chapter on using scripted data sources. This is where you
need to look. There are several dev share items at BIRT Exchange on
using them.
http://www.birt-exchange.org/modules/wfdownloads/devshare.ph p?filtercontent=scripted+data&contenttype=-1&date=-2 year&rating=0&results=10&cid=0

Remember you can write them in Java or JavaScript. If you write them in
JavaScript remember to import the required packages like:
importPackage(Packages.java.lang);
myjsvar = new Integer(5);
