I have been using a standalone java class based heavily on the integration
example for version 1, with the advent of version 2 it does not work and I
get the following console output.

25-Jan-2006 13:25:12
org.eclipse.birt.report.model.metadata.ExtensionLoader load
SEVERE: Message:The extension point
[org.eclipse.birt.report.model.reportItemModel] is not found. Error
code:EXTENSION_POINT_NOT_FOUND
25-Jan-2006 13:25:13
org.eclipse.birt.report.engine.api.impl.ReportEngineHelper openReportDesign
SEVERE: invalid design file C:\Documents and
Settings\mbedford.GREENHAT\workspace\Scratch\Status.rptdesig n
Report Status.rptdesign not found!

the command line example works and I can use it to generate a html report
from this rptdesign file so I am assuming ;) that all is well with the the
report file.

There does not appear to be a version 2 specific integration example,
before I spend loads of time trying to fix this am I doing somthing stupid.

Thanks

Martyn

Martyn,

Download the 2.0 Runtime and set your engine home to the
Report Engine directory. Add the iText jar file to the
Report Engine\plugins\org.eclispe.birt.report.engine.emitter.pdf \lib
directory

Hope this helps

Thanks for your post, however I have got the genReport script running
calling ReportRunner, though I cant work out how to get pdf output.

What I am realy looking for is advice on how I migrate my version 1.x code
to version 2.0

Thanks

Martyn

Martyn,

The error you are having is because 2.0 has different jars.
If you want to see the difference in the calls can you checkout
ReportRunner.java from CVS?

We are in the process of updating the Website to reflect the changes.

.... 3 more

My question is how do the extensions get managed, is it a matter of putting
the jar on the class path or do they need to be declared somewhere
