paramater setting via java code [message #67414]

Hello,

So I want to set the values of my reports parameters with out popping a
ui. From what I understand I need to do something like

IGetParameterDefinitionTask task =
engine.createGetParameterDefinitionTask( report );
Collection params = task.getParameterDefns( true );

Then iterate the collection setting the values as I go?
Is this is fully supported at the moment?
Can I set the report data source via this mechanism?

Mike,

That collection object stores the parameter definition only. To pass in
the parameter, you have to collect your parameter values, associate them
with the right parameter name, put these pairs into a map object, and then
pass it to the engine before runing the report.

There are some sample code in viewer's EngineFragment.java file.
