Scripted DataSource & Unique ID [message #202705]

I am creating a report using a scripted datasource. The datasource talks
directly to a JAVA object which is working fine, I am able to pass
parameters into the JAVA object but I cannont find anything available to
me in the scripting which provides a unique id for the report.

Is it possible to get the reports configuration filename or something
similar in the scripting framework?

I have found a way of getting hold of the report config's id, i thought i
would post in case anyone else is interested.

reportId = report.getDesign().getDisplayNameKey();

cheers,

Rob.

Hello Rob,

How did you solve the classpath issue for calling a POJO from report
scripting. Did you store all of your classes in web-inf?

Thanks,

Wim Jongman

I have created the POJO in a package called com.ui.reports and added this
to a jar file,

i use the following in the script to access the POJO

/** Get an instance of the class */
sourceClass = new Packages.com.ui.reports.MyPOJO();

In an eclipse deployment i place the jar file in the following directory
%eclipse_home%\plugins\org.eclipse.birt.report.viewer_2.0.1\ birt\WEB-INF\lib

In my Tomcat deployed deployment i place it in the following directory

%tomcat_home%\webapps\"mywebapp"\WEB-INF\lib

home this helps.
