Hopefully this is easy to do, but I've looked at the API, the report
designer, and documentation and found no mention of it.
Say my report has a parameter named "a", of type String. I can
dynamically compute the valid values to choose from, this all works
fine. What I now want to do is to allow n of these values to be passed
in to the report, in a list, array, collection, or something of the
sort. Is this possible?
Assuming it is possible, how does having "a" in a cascading parameter
group affect the functionality?
Assuming it is possible, are there any tricks I need to know about in
order to pass the value(s) through to my scripted ODA data source?
I'm using BIRT 2.1.1.
Thanks,
james

BIRT currently does not support paramaters with a collection type.
A report can get access to the request parameters though. You may be able
to do it that way.
