I have a need to generate spreadsheet reports from an Eclipse model (in
EMF) and have been using the Java API and a plug-in to create CSV files.
This is not an approach I am comfortable trying to sell to others and am
looking for some kind of scripting language that would allow
queries/filtering of the EMF models (without having to write a plugin).
I wondered if BIRT would be a suitable replacement for such a need.
Thanks in advance, John

John,
On the DTP newsgroup, for the thread titled "Ecore & ODA"
news://news.eclipse.org/eclipse.dtp
it looks like Jeff Ramsdale is investigating providing something that
would help build a bridge between EMF and BIRT reporting. I know quite
a few people who are interested in this type of thing, but I don't know
much about BIRT and have not had time to learn about it. :-( And I
don't think the BIRT folks understand EMF well and perhaps don't realize
the untapped potential for better integrating with it. Then again,
things might well have changed and I'd be completely unaware of that...
