Like most of the folks here, I'm pretty new to BIRT but have been playing with if for the past few weeks.
I've managed to make awesome reports so easily and in a blink of an eye.
I'm using BIRT 2.5.1 and my problems is that reports that I try to generate in PDF format seem to have problems to output the images (Haven't tried charts yet...)
Every time I try to output a PDF report featuring a JPG image, instead of it there's a text saying "Current report item is not supported in this report format." If I use an embedded image the resulting report is normal, but I need the images to be from a shared resource.
This is the configuration of my PDFRenderOption (By the way, I'm using a Servlet whose only purpose is to print the report. It is to be deployed to a Weblogin 9.2 Server. Everything works awesome but the images):
...
design = birtReportEngine.openReportDesign( sc.getResource("/Reports/"+reportName+".rptdesign").toString().substring(6) );
//create task to run and render report
IRunAndRenderTask task = birtReportEngine.createRunAndRenderTask( design );
task.getAppContext().put("BIRT_VIEWER_HTTPSERVLET_REQUEST", req);
PDFRenderOption options = new PDFRenderOption();
options.setOutputFormat(HTMLRenderOption.OUTPUT_FORMAT_PDF);
resp.setHeader( "Content-Disposition", "inline; filename=\""+reportName+".pdf\"" );
options.setOutputStream(resp.getOutputStream());
options.setImageHandler(new HTMLServerImageHandler());
task.setRenderOption(options);
//run report
task.run();
task.close();
...
Everything, Images, Report designs is in the WebContent Folder. Images are in WebContent/Images and report designs are in WebContent/Reports.
Hope anyone helps me out with this.

Can you try an embedded image?
Also comment out the image handler line and try that.

I just wanted you to test it to see if the image is coming in.
Your code should be working. Can you post one of your report designs?
I am interested on how you included the image (URL, Expression, etc);

The issue is that the uri is not complete. Try to enter something like
the following expression:
fp = reportContext.getHttpServletRequest().getRequestURL();
lt = fp.lastIndexOf("/");
fp.substring( 0, lt) + "/WebContent/Images/logoBMX.jpg";
Another option is to use an image from the resource folder ( you can set
in preferences) put your image in that directory in the designer, and
include it in your report. When you deploy to the WebViewer you can set
the resource folder in the web.xml(relative or full path). If you are
using the report engine api you can set the resource folder using:
config.setResourcePath("C:\\myresources");

There is a fx button for the expression of the URI for the image. Just
put it in the expression. And yes it is JavaScript.
your resource path setting should work.

config is the instance of the EngineConfig class.
Can you add a data item to the top of the report with the expression:
fp = reportContext.getHttpServletRequest().getRequestURL();
lt = fp.lastIndexOf("/");
fp.substring( 0, lt) + "/WebContent/Images/logoBMX.jpg";
See if this matches the location of the image. Do the same thing for
reportContext.getHttpServletRequest().getSession().getServle tContext().getRealPath('/webcontent/images');
and finally a third data element with //I i do not believe this method
will work because it returns a jndi location I believe
reportContext.getHttpServletRequest().getSession().getServle tContext().getResource('/webcontent');
Also try and change:
servletcontext.getResource("WebContent/"+"Images") );
to
servletcontext.getRealPath("WebContext/" +"Images"));
I did not think about this when I first replied, but if you are writing
your own servlet you need to add the request object to the app context
so the script engine can get access to the request.
To do this when you create a new task to run the report add:
task.getAppContext().put(EngineConstants.APPCONTEXT_BIRT_VIE WER_HTTPSERVET_REQUEST,
req );
EngineConstants is in this package:
org.eclipse.birt.report.engine.api
BTW the above expressions will be null in the designer, you need to
deploy the report to test it.

Hey Jason, you are really being very helpful, I'm learning tons just from this problem.
Look, here are the outputs of the data items:

Funny thing is that I don't have a viewer directory like the path Data Item 1 outputs...
I couldn't deploy the EAR to my Weblogic due to "org.eclipse.core.runtime.CoreException: Extended Operation failure: org.eclipse.jst.j2ee.internal.archive.operations.EARComponen tExportOperation " but the preview threw those.
Does any of this ring a bell?

Dan,
Can you try to put the library in the same directory as the report and
change the xml snippet in the report to just bnmxlLib.rptlibary?
You should be able to set the resource folder and put them there as well.
In the previous test did this:
Data (id = 64): + A BIRT exception occurred: Error evaluating Javascript
expression. Script engine error: TypeError: Cannot call method
"lastIndexOf" of null (#1)
Script source: , line: 0, text:
fp =
reportContext.getHttpServletRequest().getSession().getServle tContext().getRealPath('/WebContent/images');
lt = fp.lastIndexOf("/");
fp.substring( 0, lt) + "/WebContent/Images/logoBMX.jpg";. See next
exception for more information.

Happen when you deployed to your app server?
I wonder if WL denies getRealPath()
this output
http://127.0.0.1:55360/viewer/WebContent/Images/logoBMX.jpg
Looks like you ran it in the designer (or the preview with webviewer).

Dan,
Do you have a skype account?
Send me an email with it at jasonweathersby at windstream.net.

BTW I tried this on Tomcat and set my resource folder like:
config.setResourcePath(sc.getRealPath("/lib"));
where sc was the servlet context. I created a lib directory in my web
app put my image in it and it worked fine. This is not in the designer
but deployed.

Dan,
I am not certain what is happening: In the report design the image
should just be the name, no path. In the preferences in the designer
you can set the resource folder to whatever you want. When deployed you
can set it with the code posted earlier. Mine looks like this when
deployed.
C:\apps\apache-tomcat-5.5.20\webapps\WebReport\lib
