scripted data set; bug in the BIRT plugins? [message #871001]

Thu, 10 May 2012 09:58

Eclipse User

I'm experimenting with writing a scripted data set and I currently am generated rows. The next step is to actual fill those rows with data, and for that I need to access my own classes. I have figured out that I need to set the classpath in the "report design" preferences for this, so I have included all dependency jars of my project, but I naturally also need to include my own classes. The dialog does not allow to include a project, so I've included the classes directory.

Nevertheless, I'm still getting the infamous "is not a function, it is object.", which actually seems to mean "cannot find class". So after starting Eclipse in console mode (eclipsec) I finally found the root of my problem:

java.io.FileNotFoundException: C:\Documents%20and%20Settings\User\My%20Documents
\m2license\server\trunk\source\service\target\M2LicenseService\WEB-INF\classes (
The system cannot find the path specified)

It seems the path is added with URL escaping, but these are not unescaped. Spaces are killing MSWindows again. I assume this is a bug in the BIRT plugins?

Let me add some additional info, this seems to also be a problem for the jars files:

You should be able to include a project. To do this make sure you click
the enable project specific settings check box on the classpath preference.

Apparently these is some kind of project-type checking. I've got a TestReports project which is listed in the "enable project specific settings" (it was created as part of the tutorial), but my regular Java project is not. My Java project started out as a REST project, then wicket was added and now Birt.

So it is not giving you the option to select the project that contains
BIRT to set a specific project classpath?

Correct. It seems to be only showing projects that were started as "report project".

Tom,

None of the other add options are viable?

The add-jars throws FileNotFoundExceptions because of the spaces being replaced with %20 (as shown in the first post). The add external folder does the same. The only remaining option AFAIK would have been to add the project with "include dependencies".

FYI: I did find a working setup though, because this only affects the preview. I'm using JRebel to modify a scripted data set in Java (fetching data from a mix of Cassandra and LDAP), simply save the report with the layout changes, and then refresh it in a browser.
