I want to deploy my Reports in a tree of hierarchical folder, all reports have some items that are imported from a library(rptlibrary), i can share one unique library file in the root of the folder tree with all my reports in the subfolder ? How ?

For exmaple i have :

-Root
commonObjects.rptlibrary
      --SubFolder1
         AReport.rptdesign
      --SubFolder2
         Report.rptdesign
         --SubFolder
             Report.rptdesign

Do you mean in the designer or deployed? In the deployed you should be
able to just set the resource folder in the web.xml to the Root
directory. In the designer set the resource folder in the
window->preferences->Report Design->Resource preference.

No, i mean deployed but not using web application but using a standalone application(that implements Runtime API), i have to set the resource folder also in the runtime engine ?

If you are using the Engine api just set the resource path on the
EngineConfig instance:

config.setResourcePath(resourcePath)

Yes, i have tried but it doesn't work ...
I mean i have a library(rptlibrary) where i have put inside some embedded images, then i have loaded these images in several reports(rptdesign), if the rptlibrary is in the same folder of the report definition (rptdesign) when i load the report i have no problem(images are displayed), if i move the library into another folder (resources folder) and then i set the resource path with :

config.setResourcePath(resourcePath)

when i run the reports the images are not displayed ... Why ? Is it a bug ?

That should work. Is the resourcePath a fully qualified path?

Yes, a fully qualified path, for example : C:\Temp.

What version of BIRT are you using and are the images embedded in the
library?

I just tried this with 3.7.1 and it worked for me. Are you setting the
full resource path like: c:\\temp or c:/temp?
