Storing aggregation result into variables [message #508199] Sun, 17 January 2010 15:12 Go to next message

Hello,

I would like to do a avg aggregation on table data but display it later in the report, not as part of the table.

1. I don't need to display the aggregation any where in the table.
2. I need to display the aggregation result in a different location of the report.

How do I do this?

Searching the net, BIRT books do not suggest a solution.

Thank you,
Maxim.

Maxim,

There are a lot of different ways to do this. One way is to add the
aggregation element to the table, set it visibility to hide for all
outputs and in its oncreate script enter this:

reportContext.setGlobalVariable("myagg",this.getValue());

Later in the report you can use a data or text item and get its value.
For example a text element expression may look like this:
<VALUE-OF>reportContext.getGlobalVariable("myagg");</VALUE-OF >

See attached example.

Jason
