Building Chart Engine Extension [message #630180]

Is it possible to rebuild only one jar file, specifically org.eclipse.birt.chart.engine.extension, without having to rebuild all of BIRT? I would like to test a possible fix for a bug I filed.

If so, are there any instructions explaining how to do this?

You could try just exporting the one plugin. You could also just
extract the jar for the existing plugin and replace the class you modified.

I found instructions for building/exporting a specific module here, which I used to checkout the org.eclipse.birt.chart.engine.extension from tag BIRT_2_6_1_Release_201009151750.

When building in Eclipse, I get five compiler errors indicating that one of the included dependent libraries is incorrect. All five errors are

The method convertNumber(Object) is undefined for the type NumberUtil	BubbleDataSetProcessorImpl.java

NumberUtil.convertNumber() is in org.eclipse.birt.chart.engine.jar, in the "Plug-in Dependencies", and the version included in the checkout is 2.6.0.v20100607.
