compiling BIRT 1.0.1 fails on eclipse 3.1 [message #70097]

The access restrictions javax.servlet (among other things) in
servlet.jar in the tomcat plugin are set to discouraged, and birt was
giving me a warning, but when I try to compile the viewer
(ant -f org/eclipse/birt/report/viewer/BuildViewer.xml)
I get an error message saying "package javax.servlet does not exist"

How do I make javax.servlet visible to the project?

Patrick,

Birt viewer's build script currently user the servlet.jar boundled with
eclipse tomcat plugin. You can see the statement in buildviewer.xml file.

<fileset dir="${eclipse.home}/plugins">
<include name="${plugin.tomcat}_*/servlet.jar"/>
</fileset>

You can also add your own servlet.jar into the viewer plugin's lib dir and
change the buildviewer.xml to make it compile.

I already have that servlet included in the build script, but I still
get the error. Is there anything else I need to do?

Patrick,

You probably need to modify the buidviewer.xml

change

<fileset dir="${eclipse.home}/plugins">
<include name="${plugin.tomcat}_*/servlet.jar"/>
</fileset>

to

<fileset dir="${eclipse.home}/plugins">
<include name="${plugin.viewer}*/lib/servlet.jar"/>
</fileset>

${plugin.viewer}

is the path to your local viewer plugin dir.
