Hi! I've made webinterface for reports (kind, params, format),
but for security i don't want to use brit-viewer, but do it myself.
Pages are in JSP, viewer as Servlets, but in line:

ReportEngine engine =3D new ReportEngine( config );

i've got expetion:

java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/mozilla/javascript/Scriptable
at reports.ReportServlet.run(ReportServlet.java:298)

I don't know what's wrong and how to avoid that.
I took code from example of using BIRT API.

Ok. I found. It need more than engine and core .jar files,
but next problem, at:

report =3D engine.openReportDesign( name );

it stops... look like no excpetion throws (don't have any
info from try/catch, and no more code is processed)

Could anyone knows what's wrong?
It should be more tutorials and samples how to use BIRT

Code is almost the same like in example:

EngineConfig config =3D new EngineConfig( );
config.setEngineHome( "/home/fremen/eclipse/plugins/org.eclipse.birt.rep=
ort.viewer_1.0.1/birt/WEB-INF" =

);

HTMLEmitterConfig hc =3D new HTMLEmitterConfig( );
HTMLCompleteImageHandler imageHandler =3D new HTMLCompleteImageHandler( =
);
hc.setImageHandler( imageHandler );
config.setEmitterConfiguration( HTMLRenderOption.OUTPUT_FORMAT_HTML, hc =
);

ReportEngine engine =3D new ReportEngine( config );

IReportRunnable report =3D null;
try
{
report =3D engine.openReportDesign( name ); // <-- here it stops =
!!!
}
catch ( EngineException e )
{
System.err.println( "Report " + name + " not found!\n" );
engine.destroy( );
return;
}

Take a look at this zip file. It has a readme in it.
It uses ant to do the build, so I hope you have it.
Let me know if the test report runs.

Thanks

Fremen,

"Name" below need a full path to the report.
report = engine.openReportDesign( name );

Also check your tomcat log see the exact exception when it "stops"

Hi!

I discovered that:

- path statring with /eclipse/... must end with /WEB-INF/brit, not =

/WEB-INF,

- i didn't want to put full path to eclipse (on local disk, for secure),=

so i'd tried to put those in /webapps/my_reports/birt, but in this case
it won't work (my reports site won't start), but if you put this to =

tomcat/webapps/birt/
and set correct path, it should work without any problems,

- the problem can be missing some *.jar - but this errors should Tomcat =
=

show (expetion
for class not found)

- code is almost the same as this in example on BIRTs site, i only
do minor changes for my dirs, etc.
