Hello all,
Birt rocks and I have been using it for a while now. These days I have been using much of xml datasources.
This has taken me to the path of dynamic xml datasources.
Now I have succeeded in handling dynamic datasources with PropertyBinding : I can set the url of the xml datasource in this simple property binding field.
The trouble is I would like to have access to the default value of the FileList property of the Datasource.
I have tried to use this.getExtensionProperty in this expression builder but it says this method doesn't exists in Object class.
Is this a bug or can I really get to the datasource itself or any object that could get me the filelist property ? Or a way to test if the property binding must not occur ?
Thanks for your help, I hope I have been clear enough.
Regards,
Cyril

Cyril,
I normally just use the beforeOpen script, but even in the expression
builder on the property binding you could enter something like:
currxmlds =reportContext.getDesignHandle().findDataSource("Data
Source").getProperty("FILELIST")
There should be a local property for this. If you want to add an
enhancement that would be good.
