running a BIRT report from a tomcat server [message #13169] Thu, 03 March 2005 10:49 Go to next message

Originally posted by: kaye.dsl.pipex.com

Have completed the BIRT tutorial and would now like to integrate a BIRT
report into a test application on a Tomcat server.

I guess this involves copying the .rptdesign file and passing it to the
engine.jar in org.eclipse.birt.report.engine_0.0.1

Have looked all through the documentation and the BIRT site but can't find
info that explains what to put on Tomcat and where, and what the API is to
the engine from our jsp or servlet.

Many thanks for any information that can help us to do this.

Hi Nick:

BIRT report viewer under plug-in org.eclipse.birt.report.viewer/viewer
folder is a web application that is embedded into BIRT report designer. You
can look to the report viewer code for detail on how to integrate the report
engine into your J2EE application. For a quick start, simply copy the report
viewer and deploy it to a tomcat server.

Sheldon,

I have a demo on how to create a stand-alone application that access BIRT
reports and BIRT charts. I will have it out on the site by Monday next
week. I do not know how you are calling to the Viewer class, but it looks
like the toolbar is causing problems. At the time you call the viewer or
the engine, you may want to try passing a parameter,
__toolbar=false.

At this early stage, I use the following attributes and things seem to work
well:
__format=html&__frame=false&__navigation=false&_ _toolbar=false.
