Hi. How can i retrieve session variables in a BIRT report from other
documents (webpages)? I'm interested in retrieving objects regarding their
type.
Thank you.

There is a function within reportContext that is available while scripting
that can get a session variable. (This can also be done in Java)

For example. in the onPrepare of a data control

ab = reportContext.getHttpServletRequest().getAttribute('attribut eBean');
doc = ab.getReportDocumentName();
this.valueExpr = "doc";

This works with the BIRT Viewer.
In the example I used a default session var that is used within the BIRT
viewer.

If you write your own servlet you can create similar logic
using the API. (Task.setAppContext()) to make the session available to the
reports.
