Hi,

I am trying to use BIRT for our reports and we are using Maven for builds.

This is what i have included in the pom.xml

<dependency>
<groupId>org.eclipse.birt</groupId>
<artifactId>chartengineapi</artifactId>
<version>2.3.2</version>
<scope>provided</scope>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.eclipse.birt</groupId>
<artifactId>coreapi</artifactId>
<version>2.3.2</version>
<scope>provided</scope>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.eclipse.birt</groupId>
<artifactId>dataadapterapi</artifactId>
<version>2.3.2</version>
<scope>provided</scope>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.eclipse.birt</groupId>
<artifactId>engineapi</artifactId>
<version>2.3.2</version>
<scope>provided</scope>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.eclipse.birt</groupId>
<artifactId>modelapi</artifactId>
<version>2.3.2</version>
<scope>provided</scope>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.eclipse.birt</groupId>
<artifactId>scriptapi</artifactId>
<version>2.3.2</version>
<scope>provided</scope>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.eclipse.birt</groupId>
<artifactId>dteapi</artifactId>
<version>2.3.2</version>
<scope>provided</scope>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>com.ibm.icu</groupId>
<artifactId>icu4j</artifactId>
<version>3.8.1</version>
<scope>provided</scope>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>rhino</groupId>
<artifactId>js</artifactId>
<version>1.6R7</version>
<scope>provided</scope>
</dependency>


Note that the version is mentioned as 2.3.2 and the scope is given as provided.
However the birt runtime that i am using is of version 3.7

Do we have the other version of birt(apart from the 2.3.2 version above) which can be defined in pom, and are these dependencies sufficient.

In the above, i had to give <scope> as provided, so that the maven does not include these in the war which it creates, and the addition of these libraries is left to the container(which are added by adding the libraries in the birt-runtime to the tomcat at startup).

If i remove the provided scope, the war created has some of the birt libraries, but when i try to startup the Birt Engine in the java code, it gives an exception (it could be probably because some of the libraries conflict with the birt runtime libraries, which are also included in the classpath when the tomcat is started).

Ideally i would want to include the BIRT libraries in the war itself which are created by maven.

Is it possible or am i doing something wrong here.

Thanks a lot..

Tuco

What repo are you using? I do not think the 3.7 plugins are uploaded to
a repo yet. I build a seam app with BIRT using a local repo, but I am
not certain that will help you.
