To build a simple Java application just add the jars from the
reportruntime download to your classpath. If you are using Eclipse to
build the application use these steps.
1 - download the birt runtime
2 - create a new java project in Eclipse
3 - right click on the project in the Package view and select Build
Path->configure build path.
4 - Select the libraries tab and click on the add external Jars.
5 - Add all the jars from the birtruntime download/reportengine/lib
directory.
6 - create your class. For example look at the following.
package REAPI;
import java.util.logging.Level;
import org.eclipse.birt.core.framework.Platform;
import org.eclipse.birt.report.engine.api.EXCELRenderOption;
import org.eclipse.birt.report.engine.api.EngineConfig;
import org.eclipse.birt.report.engine.api.EngineConstants;
import org.eclipse.birt.report.engine.api.EngineException;
import org.eclipse.birt.report.engine.api.HTMLRenderOption;
import org.eclipse.birt.report.engine.api.IReportEngine;
import org.eclipse.birt.report.engine.api.IReportEngineFactory;
import org.eclipse.birt.report.engine.api.IReportRunnable;
import org.eclipse.birt.report.engine.api.IRunAndRenderTask;
import org.eclipse.birt.report.engine.api.PDFRenderOption;
public class RunAndRenderTask {
public void runReport() throws EngineException
{
IRunAndRenderTask task=null;
IReportEngine engine=null;
EngineConfig config = null;
try{
config = new EngineConfig( );
config.setLogConfig("c:/dwn", Level.SEVERE);
Platform.startup( config );
IReportEngineFactory factory = (IReportEngineFactory) Platform
.createFactoryObject(
IReportEngineFactory.EXTENSION_REPORT_ENGINE_FACTORY );
engine = factory.createReportEngine( config );
IReportRunnable design = null;
//Open the report design
design = engine.openReportDesign("Reports/TopNPercent.rptdesign");
task = engine.createRunAndRenderTask(design);
task.setParameterValue("Top Count", (new Integer(5)));
task.validateParameters();
HTMLRenderOption options = new HTMLRenderOption();
options.setImageDirectory("./");
options.setOutputFileName("output/resample/out.html");
options.setOutputFormat("html");
task.setRenderOption(options);
task.run();
task.close();
engine.destroy();
}catch( Exception ex){
ex.printStackTrace();
}
Platform.shutdown( );
System.out.println("Finished");
}
/**
* @param args
*/
public static void main(String[] args) {
try
{
RunAndRenderTask ex = new RunAndRenderTask( );
ex.runReport();
System.exit(0);
}
catch ( Exception e )
{
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
A couple of extras to note. The openReportDesign method in the above
example is looking for a report named TopNPercent.rptdesign in a folder
in the project named Reports. You could specify the complete path to a
report instead. The output file out.html is generating the report in a
folder in the project named output. A full path could have been used
as well. Finally, if you want to the code to run multiple reports only
start up the platform once and just create new task for each report.

BTW the code sample was for BIRT 3.7.
